Cable

Boy do I have a lot to learn about cable!  Cable as in cords that run to and from things, that is.  Earlier, Lauryn unplugged a cord that connected somewhere from the tv or dvd player and I could not figure out where the cable I needed was supposed to go!  There are way too many cords around this house!  The same thing happened once when I was in the back office.  I accidentally pulled on of the cords from the computer out with my foot and totally freaked out that I had wrecked something and couldn't figure out how to fix it.

I was looking at different sites online to see if there was something that could help me out a little, either to better keep the cables straight and orderly or just a way to minimize the amount of cable we have. I came across the Optimized Cable Company and it looks like they have some things that will help me out. :)

Lots to Do

I have a lot to do today.  I've got the last load of clothes in the dryer right now and have two big blankets that need to be washed yet.  Tomorrow is garbage day so I have to clean out the fridge, litter and get the rest of the trash ready to go out, the kitchen and bathroom floors need to be swept and mopped, the house needs dusting and the rest of the floors need to be vacuumed.  Sounds like fun, eh?  I want to get as much done as I can before Lauryn's appointment, which we should leave around 2 pm for.  I have no clue what to make for dinner yet but I think I'm going to stop at the store on the way home to pick up a few things to make a yummy banana pudding dessert I just came across.  Maybe I'll get an idea for dinner while I'm shopping :)

I've been thinking that netbooks sound really good!  Our office is in the back of the house and it's always freezing back here so a netbook or laptop would be great.  Lloyd's been thinking about getting a new laptop and if he does then I get his old one :)  Besides being so cold in the office, I can only get online when Lauryn is sleeping because the office and the stairs to the basement are in the same place and there isn't a door to keep Lauryn away from the stairs.  I don't trust that a baby gate would be good enough to keep her from falling down them so we just keep the door to in the dining room closed so the office and basement are off limits to her.

Suppose I should get offline and get to my to do list :P
