I’m so excited!

I just received word yesterday that our friends from Illinois are going to be here in two weeks. We haven’t seen them in at least two years and I mess them. They will be here for only five days, and even though that’s too short I’ll take it.

Jimmy and Shannon have been our friends forever while we lived there. They are even renewing their vows in June which we will go back to IL for that.

Can’t wait so you all soon!

And she’s only 8

I came across a printout today that had the beginnings of a story on it. I asked around and Kel wrote it, or at least started it as a story. I find it remarkable

that she is so imaginative and has the writing skills. So here you go:

The Moon Spirit

By Kelandra Rohr Krutsinger

There once was a little girl who always looks up to the moon and feels no happiness. And yet she feels her heart beat slower, slower bump bump, bump bump, bump………….beeeeeeeeeep. She finds herself lying on the moon. However, she could not be the moon maiden until she was true at heart. “I must find the moon man, my soul mate.” She stated. “The planets! If the planets align then as I read in a book I will meet my soul mate. It’s perfect!” “Oh wait, I’m trapped here.”

Ants have mobile homes?

Rai — Mon, 17 Sep 2007 09:52:48 +0000

I the ever continuing battle of the ants it appears that they are trying to set up new mounds inside. I went to leave yesterday and as I was walking out the front door I noticed that they were making a mound just outside and were crawling inside. The weird thing is that there was sand inside the front door as well.

As I watched, while hubby got ant spray, I noticed that the ants were carrying the sand from the outside mound into the house and depositing it just inside. I always figured that they would just dig when they found a spot but maybe this was a special case for them.

Oh well a good soaking of ant spray both inside and out they won’t be using that dirt. That particular mound also didn’t make it.

Returned Check from Walmart

Rai — Tue, 11 Sep 2007 00:19:54 +0000

I don’t know just how long they have been doing this but they returned our check right there at the counter. I mean the check went through and all. They scanned it, took my drivers license and had me sign a piece of paper just like a credit card receipt. Then she handed me the receipt and my check.

It was the weirdest thing but technology is moving along I guess.

Ant invasion

Rai — Sun, 09 Sep 2007 13:23:23 +0000

It’s not funny anymore and the ant’s are giving us pay back x 2.

Several months ago we noticed in the backyard two ant hills slowly getting bigger. While around the house we did see ants but no other hills. Finally the backyard hills got way to big and killing the grass around them so a month ago my husband went out an bought a spreader and granular insecticide. It worked! The mounds disappeared and no ant detection elsewhere.

Until about two weeks ago. It seems all the ants from outside have now taken permanent residence in our house. For the past two weeks we have been combating this scourge night and day. It seems they live in the walls so we have to spot a line of ants and spray it to the entrance in the wall. It’s time to break out the big guns and fog the house as a last resort.

Hosting your business website

Rai — Sun, 09 Sep 2007 13:06:04 +0000

When your business really depends on internet hosting providers that are reputable, dependable, and offers 24/7 support you really need to shop around. There is certainly a company out there that will fit your budget, needs, etc but at what cost to your internet operations?

Most hosting providers offer 99.9% uptime and some even guarantee that. To have true 100% uptime you’ll pay dearly for it so take that into consideration. Inevitably a customer service question will come up so being able to contact the the hosting provider is important. I currently have to email mine and whom are in England so questions get answered in 24 hours. Can be days though for difficult problems.

Unless you know what you’re doing or willing to learn and make mistakes while your web site grows then partner with a small business hosting provider.

Concentric SMB Business Solutions not only offers shared web site hosting but reviewing them they also offer so much more. The package prices they offer are in align with market price for hosting but the added functionalities of blogging and pod casting is great. The have the 24/7 phone/ email technical support and do have a 99.9% uptime guarantee. Concentric is someone I would say is worth checking out.

Palm frawns, Florida’s flower?

Rai — Sun, 09 Sep 2007 12:23:02 +0000

I can’t believe how irritating palm frawns can be as they lie around. I mean on the actual tree they lend to the tropical atmosphere around here but when they fall off they become a real pain. Like tumble weeds they have a habit of blowing around and collecting which we have to pick up. It’s as if they are like flowers never rally falling from the tree but growing over night because certainly a single tree surely doesn’t have that many frawns.
