My Dailies 2010 This is my daily journal like page where back in September of 2006 I decided to start writing down my thoughts for every day in my web site here. Also, there is a place called: “My Dirty Dailies”,.. for those days when I might use a little bad language. The button to get in is sitting in this black area in the bottom right corner,.. and it requires a password to get in. Here is a more convenient way to get over to my Video Archives page - My Videos ...

And then I also read my emails,.. and played Mafia Wars, got paid in YoVille and wrote notes in facebook. And that’s pretty much it for my Saturday. Sunday, October 10, 2010 click here to go back to the top of this page Today I went over to Home Depot and got me a new screw gun. I got the 18 volt RIGID. And I decided on this one because I have a RIGID Jigsaw that needs batteries. So with the 2 batteries I got with this new screw gun I’ll still be able to use my Jigsaw. The funny thing about this Jigsaw is it came with a 24 volt battery and I’ve never been able to find anymore of those batteries. So through researching my tools online I found out that the Jigsaw also runs on 18 volt batteries. Which is cool because it was an expensive tool that I’ve hardly used. Also today I went over to Lowe’s and did a little shopping for screw driver bit sets for the new screw gun,.. and I did one load of laundry,.. planted a couple trees in my yard,.. read my emails,.. and played Mafia Wars, got paid in YoVille and chatted with friends in facebook.

Sunday, October 24, 2010 click here to go back to the top of this page Today seemed like a pretty busy Sunday.

Today I finished 2 loads of laundry,.. watered all my plants & trees around my yard,.. did some online banking and paid my bills,.. read my emails,.. played Mafia Wars, got paid in YoVille and wrote notes in facebook,.. and cooked a couple new recipes. I cooked Spinach Quiche for the first time ever and a Black & Red bean soup. I never even tasted quiche until now. Wasn’t even that sure what exactly it was. But now that I’ve found out and have tasted it,... Quiche can be very good. I found a keeper recipe for Spinach Quiche. One worth making again. The Black & Red bean soup tasted good too. I’ve been trying a bunch of different Black Bean soup recipes and learning some things about making that soup. So far I’ve found some good recipes. But it’s like I’ve gotta adjust every one of them to suit my taste. And that’s about it for my Sunday.

And that’s about it for my Friday Saturday, October 30, 2010 click here to go back to the top of this page Today I did my usual Saturday chores. I did one load of laundry,.. went grocery shopping at Stater Brothers and Smart & Final,.. cleaned my oldest printer and gave it to my Mother because her printer stopped working,.. made up my Calendar for November,.. made a call about some new work,.. went shopping over at Target to get a new Alarm Clock,.. I’m not always hearing my old one anymore,.. read my emails,.. and played Mafia Wars and got paid in YoVille in facebook. And I attempted to cook a vegetarian meat loaf... It actually tasted just like a real meat loaf,.. it just turned out a little dry, which in this case I think maybe I could of cooked it too long. And that’s about it for my Saturday. Sunday, October 31, 2010 click here to go back to the top of this page Today was another weekend day where the time just flew right by and it seemed like there just isn’t enough time in the day to do everything that I thought of doing. So today my Blender stopped working. It’s the second one of that brand that I’ve had problems with. Seemed like I hardly used both of them,.. and the didn’t last very long... If I’m not mistaken my Mother still has and uses the same metal Oster blender that we had when I was a kid. It’s probably over 40 years old and still working. Anyway,.. so I went by Bed Bath & Beyond and got me a new blender. I got the Ninja Professional blender this time. And so far I’m pretty happy with it. I haven’t tried any ice in it yet,.. but it says that it’ll turn ice into snow cone style ice.. I learned how to make Pumpkin Pie shakes recently,... so that’s what I’ve been making. They’re my new Holiday drink. I’m using pumpkin pie filling from a can, vanilla ice cream, sugar because I like mine more sweet,.. and water because these days I like the way water thins the shake better than the way milk does. Then while I was over at Bed Bath & Beyond I decided to stop by Staples while I was there because sometimes it’s better to go in the store to check sale prices than it is to check on their web site. And sure enough,.. I was right. They just happened to have the printer on sale that I’ve been looking at to purchase... On their web site it was listed at 50 dollars more than I paid for it today. And then I went by the new Farmers Market over in the Barnes & Noble parking lot... It was a nice little Farmers Market. Then also today I did one load of laundry,.. tried out cooking a new recipe called Russian Green Bean & Potato soup. I thought it was different but good,.. and my Mother didn’t like it at all... And I watered my plants and trees,.. tied some of my vines off to get them running a certain direction,.. read my emails,.. and played Mafia Wars,.. got paid in YoVille,.. chatted and wrote notes in facebook. And I think that’s about it for my Halloween.
