July

Well since it’s been a couple weeks since I last posted anything.  I figured I should update with a little something.

It’s been now a year since Micha and I got married.  We were married on the 4th of July 2009.  :) Seems odd that it’s been that long!  I did miss seeing fireworks and all this year, but ah well.  We still had a nice time.  Went to a nice Chinese restaurant Saturday night, saw “Robin Hood”, which was ok but too long for the amount of story and they should have made the characters more… endearing I dunno.  Anywho, we were going to do more that day but it randomly rained.  Had a little party majigger on the day of our anniversary, Sunday, which turned out pretty good. Had a nice time, even though I was skeptical at first… I’m not a party person.

Yesterday the tall ships came into Antwerp, there weren’t as many there as I had hoped to see but ah well. It’s really the first time I’ve seen ships like that so at least it was something. I got a few photos and this one was one of them that amused me the most… I had to add text. XD


I might post some of the other photos in my photo gallery after I crop them and tweak the colors a little. I got a new digital camera, just a small nikon, but it’s pretty nice. I’m still getting the hang of using it though.

Other than that I’ve been feeling really bad for the last month on and off. I first got sick with a cold, then found out my skin doesn’t like copper had to deal with a nasty rash on my belly from my belt buckle. I got a spider bite on my leg that gave me a fever for two days and made it very very very painful to walk or sit for any length of time. That one required a visit to the ER. Then after that was almost gone I got a boil under my arm on the side of my chest. Which in three days developed into a nasty abscess, probably about the size of a quarter, and the doctor put me on some power pills. Man they are huge, to kill of bacteria, and I’ve got my own personal nurse to come out and dress the wound everyday till it starts looking better. I dread every time it has to be cleaned. :(

Anyways, nuff on my issues! But that’s basically why updates here and art has been slow this month. I hope that these health issues will be clearing up soon and that I can return to my regularly scheduled arting and whatever else. XD I might be seeing some more movies, and hopefully visit a few places this month to get a bunch of photos. So that’s all for now.

Sand Theives!

So I hear a lot of ridiculous news but this one really just caught my attention the other day.  The Mexican government has decided to close Cancun beach for apparent sand theft.  They replaced the sand after a hurricane in like 2005 something like that and now the sand is disappearing again.  The sand is washing out to see again but hotels are also starting to snitch it.  Kind of humorous that hotels would steal sand but yea.  Still find it silly that the government is closing a beach because they are worried over sand…shouldn’t they be worried about other things of greater importance like…drug cartels?  The article is here.  Moving on!

I get the Glenn Beck newsletter and I found it interesting that Texas is standing up to Obama and his universal health care.  Good for you Texas, bought time someone stand up against him.  Check out that article here.  We don’t need a health care system like Canada or the UK.   I know how much fail they are from talking to friends that live there.  Plus it’s not gonna help our trillion dollar debt either.

3732Shifting to my own life!  *gasp*  We had some friends over the other day and had like a game-a-thon which was pretty fun.  We all got to Monopoly, Antwerpen edition, which was amusing to me since Antwerp is not THAT big compared to a lot of other cities but they have editions of everything for it.  Anyways this game was brutal I took out one guy and a friend took out my hubby and we both owned at least half the board.  I was already in the lead but he wanted to hang in there and he had bought so many houses that there were none left in the bank.  All my streets were packed with hotels.  He kept landing on mine, and since I had stuff like utilities and trains which I kept landing on it spared me most of the time from his spaces.  Pretty much everything on the board cost $600 or more if landed on.  He barely was hanging in there, then the chance card of repair your houses came up for him and that finally made him sink.  I say it was just revenge for taking me out last time with his street of hotels.  )<

And to end on a nice note, I found this really spiffy photoshop brush site a while back and thought I would share it with all you lovely visitors.  Their brushes and textures and whatever else are very nice quality.  Check that out here.

Do any of you folks remember the Petz programs?  Does anyone still play it?  I ask cause I do and I’m wondering if anyone would want to trade petz.  lol  :P
