For some reason I woke up pretty early this morning considering it is Saturday (8:30am). I have a pretty busy day of yard work, laundry, tank cleaning, and all that other fun around the house stuff in store for me today..

I also have to go out to my moms and set her up with something other than windows 98. I have been trying to move her to something other than 98 for a LONG time, but she hates change. I would prefer to put her on Linux but she refuses it. I am thinking XP right now but might throw a old copy of 2000 I have kicking around here some place on. It all comes down to just getting something that her new camera will work with and anything above ME (shudder) will work for now.

For a long while I have been interested in Bonsai Trees. I have had a few over the years that have always ended up dead before I really get to do anything with them. This one that stays in my moms back yard is not really a bonsai since it is in a barrel and not a dish, but I am training it and shaping it to look like a little tree. There is actually some wires on parts of it to try and shape it some more (you can’t really see them in this image). Anyway just thought I would share something I dont normally talk about here. I think it was about 5 years old when I got it and I have had it for about 3 or 4 years now.

I spent most of my weekend sleeping and doing a whole lot of nothing. I had a fair amount of computer work on a personal project I wanted to get done and just never felt up to doing. I did however go out to my moms and get all the stuff she wanted moved out for junk day out to the curb.

Dont ask or try to understand the the image below…

Went out to my moms again today and spent some time with her and my Nanna. My Nanna made me some new placemats. They are pretty nice and being black never hurts any when I have to pick something. There is not really much funiture anywhere around here that is not black and what isnt should be.

I had planned to do a whole lot more with my day today, but just could not get in the mood to do anything when I returned home, so I watched a movie and am now just listen to some music.

So far this xmas break I went out for some drinks with eccentric and Epibeta. Then the next night Jay came over and we had a good hardcore drinking night. Jay and I watched a movie I had and had not watched called Equilibrium, it was a pretty kick ass movie.

Today I went out to my moms and painted one of the 3 bedrooms for her. She seemed pretty happy with it after the first one was done. It a pretty huge change from the messy walls that where in that room before. The funny thing is I remeber making them that way because it was my first bedroom. All I need to say is dont wall paper a whole room with posters, makes for a shit load of tac holes everywhere. :) I plan to do the master bed room next which was the 2nd and last room I had while living there, her bedroom will be the last one. Once they are all done then the whole house will have been painted for her (a “pro” did the rest already, as it was too big a job for me to say I would do it in a time that I thought she could deal with).
