So Warm Today

Man it’s nice here today, but I’m cooped up inside working.  I have a huge data entry job today that’s going to take hours to complete, but hey I’m not complaining.  It’s worth a lot of money!  I just wish I had my laptop running on the network so I could be sitting outside enjoying the sunshine.  It’s 80 degrees out right now.

The thing that really sucks is our AC isn’t working.  We went to turn on the window unit, and nothing happened.  Hubby’s going to hook up our backup unit today to see if it works, but if it doesn’t we’re going to have to go shopping.  This house is getting warm, and I’m not staying in here like this!  I have two floor fans going, but I’m going to have to take the 3rd outside in a bit for a good wash.  It’s caked with dust from sitting in storage.

I’m just taking a quick late lunch break right now, then I’m back to data entry!

There Go The Glasses

Hubby just called to let me know he broke his glasses again. He’s had this pair soldered back together twice already, and now yet again they’re broken. At least it’s something I’ll easily be able to fix when he gets home.

At least while he’s at work he’s got safety goggles he wears over his glasses, so those will hold them in place so he can see. He’ll have to let his dad drive home because he’s blind as a bat without them.

We’ve considered Lasik, but it’s a little too expensive for us right now. I’m going to mention it to him again, and maybe we can save enough to be able to pay for half and finance the rest. It just depends on how things go. I really think it’d be a great thing for him to have, and we know he’s a candidate. We’ve already had all that checked last time we considered the surgery about 6 months ago.

Changing Post Titles Font With CG-FlashyTitles Plugin

If you haven’t noticed (I’m sure you have) I installed a new plugin yesterday that lets me change the font of my post titles.  The plugin is CG-FlashyTitles.  I love what I can do with it, but I’m also having a few issues with it.
You can’t currently click on the title to view the post page.  I’m trying to figure out how to fix this, but for now I’ve made sure there’s a link at the bottom of each post called “Permalink” that links to the post page.

If anyone is using this plugin and experienced this same issue please let me know how you fixed it!  So far I haven’t found anything that would help me figure out how to fix it, but I haven’t had much time to search for a fix.  Hopefully I can figure it out by the end of the day!

Much Better!

Wow, I’m definitely sticking with Zyrtec and not going back to Allegra. I feel soooo much better today! The Zyrtec my doctor gave me is the OTC version, and it’s a lot cheaper than my other allergy meds, too, so I think it’s definitely a winner.

I actually feel good enough to get some stuff done today, and let me tell you I really need to do some cleaning. I haven’t done a damn thing since I started feeling like total crap, and this house is an absolute mess. Of course Hubby didn’t go out of his way to help me with any of the house work, so I’ve got stuff piled up everything that needs doing.

I’ve already start laundry and dishes this morning, and I thought about messing around in the guest room, but I think that might set my allergies off even more. I’m imagining all the dust that’s built up in there since we use the room mainly as a storage room. Alley’s cat tree is in there, so I’m at least going to pull that out today. He has a big one and a little one, so we stuck the big one in storage. Well he’s finally destroyed his little scratching post, so it’s time to pull the big one out again.

As much as I know I need to do all this I don’t want to though. I was laying on the couch last night watching TV, and a design for a new blog header popped in my head. I sat down for a few minutes to give myself a rough design in Paint Shop Pro, but I didn’t have time to really do what I wanted to it. Now I want to work on designing it before I totally forget the details I wanted.

I really need to get back in the habit of organizing my day, what I do when, and how long I have to accomplish it. I’ve kind of let all that go out the window!
