I'M GIVING AWAY THE STORE FOR FREE It's been a while since I've blogged here - bad blogger, bad blogger!! LOL! But, I have something very special for you all. I've received permission from Royanna Fritschmann to GIVE AWAY HER STORE! How's that?! Yes, I'm giving away Royanna's store at Divine Digital to ONE very, very lucky person. As you may or may not know, Royanna's family is in dire crisis, and if you want a real bargain on, not only Personal Use items, but many Commercial Use items as well, now would be the time to purchase her entire store for just $25, and get the very generous Cyndi Wetmiller's Wetfish Designs complete store as well. And, of course, you would be helping out Royanna and her family. We've all had to tighten our belts right now, but this is a personal crisis that I hope all of you never have to go through. Please note, I don't personally know Royanna and her family, but when someone's down, it doesn't hurt to extend a hand to try to lift them up, if you are able to. Remember, what goes around, comes around. I would hope someone would extend a hand to you as well if you were the one in need. So, here's Royanna's ad from Divine Digital so you know what's being given away.

Help me name my new Kitten

This adorable little fellow found me during the fireworks display at a local fair! I figure he is about 8 or 10 weeks old, not sure about that though. He is a totally little feral boy that came hiding around my hubby’s concession stand during the release of the fireworks and was just so scared! That is my arm he is sleeping on in the picture. He has a kooky little habit of putting his nose against mine and then proceeding with trying to nibble my nose! He gives great kitty hugs/head butts too. He is a clinging vine as well when he knowsI'm up he wants out of the crate and to be my second skin. ( I tried letting in bed with me the first night, but he had a accident in bed, so now it's the crate at night, at least until he and the litter box become better acquainted.) He is also terrified of the dogs here, another reason for the crate, so he can become acclimated to the dogs and barking and such. Also so they get used to him and give up trying to chase him around the house when he gets on the floor. I'm using it to protect him form them mainly, I have a winter blanket over the top of it to make a cave for him to hide in.

Now, the problem, I need some suggestions as to what to name him, please? Right at the moment I'm calling him Charlie, but I'm not happy with that so I'm asking for suggestions.

Big Scare Today!

I thought I had really messed up my computer badly today! I had downloaded and installed a program to update my device drivers and used it once successfully. Well today I decided to get another driver and update it, BAD MOVE! The driver I downloaded and installed messed up my keyboard and mouse in a way that they wouldn’t work! I fought with this silly machine for hours and finally managed to get it to do a restore point for me and THAT finally worked. Be VERY careful what you download! Even if it appears to be something to improve your machine, you just don’t know what it might do!

Oh and while I”m on the subject, NEVER try to defrag your registry?!?! It just doesn’t like it and it will really mess with your computer! I did it and had to reformat, and reinstall everything afterwards! If you  don’t know exactly what you are doing the best thing is allow your computer do download updates for you. That way you know the update is compatible with your operating system and machine, or go directly to the manufacturer’s site and download the updates form them!

Hey everyone it's that time again! The first of the month is the start of all the new challenges at K-Joi

Here are some of the offerings there for you to join and earn points that are good in the store to use to purchase items for your scrapping pleasure.
