New (to me) Toys Are Fun :P

Yay for more crap we don't need. Nana has been emptying out my Aunt Fita's (Mom's aunt and Nana's older sister) house, since April when she passed away. And little by little knickknacks and dishes and various other items are finding their way to our place. We already brought home some lovely glass dishes for daily use, but Nana thought we might like a complete China set. WHY, I don't know. I mean we never even bother bringing out the Christmas set of dishes. When would we possibly pull out the "China"? One of those dinner parties, we ALWAYS have? -rolls eyes- Bleh, just more stuff I had to find room for in one of our limited storage spaces. But I managed it, so that's all that matters. Anywho, moving boxes was Monday's joy. I loaded up Nana's car with our boxes (and some of hers) and helped her unload at her house before she brought me home. So, at least I could help her do that.

Tuesday was Target Tuesday, and unfortunately, the trip was all for our stuff and not Dad's fun movie buying. :P  But thanks to Daddy, we were able to get some much needed supplies. :D And later that night I unpacked the boxes from Monday's outing. So the above pic was taken on Tuesday. (I completely forgot about the camera on Monday!) As well as a few pics of my silly little girl and her silly box loving fun. She always looks at  me like "whaaaaat?", whenever I catch her in boxes. :P

While Wednesday was far from uneventful, I did neglect the camera again. Boy, this pic a day thing is hard. :P Dad came over with some yummy KFC. Whoever was working that night filled our bucket of chicken with whatever. :P It was an unintended mixed bucket of chicken, but it was all so deliscious so aside from laughing there were no complaints. And! Dad bought me a bigger flash drive so I could move the rest of my files off the old computer! :D I spent ALL night doing that... Well, it wouldn't have taken so long, if I'd kept my eye on things better. But it's hard to watch a serious movie like The Pianist (2002) and pause every five to twenty minutes to upload/download files. By the way, it was a goood movie if sad, which how could it NOT be a sad movie. Oh, oh, also, after Dad left and before I began file moving, Mom and I finished the movie we started Tuesday night. Stardust (2007) was a FUN movie! Totally a keeper. :D

Today, well mentally today (as I haven't gone to bed yet) a.k.a. Thursday, Mom had a doctor's appointment. I like those. I usually go to keep her company on the longish drive, and as it's such a long drive, I READ. :D But alas, it was an in and out trip. So I think I was in the waiting room less than even five minutes. Ah well. I did manage to read 25ish pages there and back, which for me isn't bad. I cooked dinner, and by cook I mean heated up a prepared meal on a frying pan for less than 15 minutes. All the same, a second night of hot food was good. :D After dinner I got busy. Laundry, moved the old computer to its new home.... And took lots of pics! :D

Pixie was being especially goofy by climbing inside the bag the paper towels came in. Mind you, this bag has been on the floor for Oreo to chew on for weeks. But she decides she's going to play in it, because NOW it's in the living room instead of Mom's room. Wow, that bag has a tail! :P Oreo ran off before I could include him in the shot, but for a while he was staring at her, like "you are so weird."

I can't tell you how many tries it took to get this one. The flash kept being reflected off the plastic or her head was hidden or she looked away.... All and all, I am glad I kept trying, cuz she looks so cute. :P Funny, funny little girl. :) But she is my baby. And the silly little girl stayed in there for such a long time too! Mom was even worried that she'd gotten herself stuck. But no... She turned around in it quite a few times to get a better look at her surroundings. :P

At some point, Oreo got interested in her again. Cuz he was staring at Pix in the bag for a while. I asked Mom what she thought he was thinking. "What are you doing?" or "You are so weird." And she said he was probably trying to figure out how to keep her in the bag. And then I looked back at him and had to agree with her. :P He was probably plotting to pounce on her. He does that alot. Just sits and stares at her while she's just laying there and then boom! And the wrestling match begins. :P Great fun until they start yelling or whining too loudly. Then, Mom and I get nervouse they're hurting one another so we'll stop them.

Oh, oh,.... As I've gotten the hang of the camera more, I took a better pic of my new compy. :D So here it is:
