It’s here!!!

My brand new laptop is finally here!!!

   

This is the second laptop that I have owned and I’m going to treat it like it’s my baby!!! And I am especially glad that I got my laptop when I did because the battery on my old one is completely dead. It won’t charge at all so as soon as you pull the plug, it turns off. I transferred some stuff over to the new laptop, but now I just have to wait till my fiancé gets off work so he can help me transfer my bookmarks from Firefox. Oh, and he said that I should have enough space on this laptop to put my iTunes music on, so he has to help me with that then. Last night when he looked in his email and saw the email saying my laptop, I felt like a little kid on Christmas Eve!! Now I feel like a little kid on Christmas day!! I just love how it looks and I love how it types!! Oh, and the webcam is nice! It’s got all these cool effects that I’ll have to play around with!

Look, now it looks like Christmas Day!! It’s raining presents!!!

Look, I’m on a billboard!!!

 

Lol…alright, I’m done playing with that for now. I got some cleaning done earlier (except all of the dishes because I ran out of room to put the wet ones), so now I’m going to enjoy and explore my new laptop for a little bit!! Have a great rest of your day everyone!!

We have some more winners

My giveaway for the 5 Rafflecopter invite codes has ended and I’m pleased to announce the winners!! Congrats to Rebekah, Denise, Michele, Jackie, and Danielle. I have emailed all of you your invite codes. Enjoy!!

I said before that I’m going to do my next giveaway when I reach 300 followers. I am now 32 followers away from reaching that goal. Well, I’m going to see how many of my current followers can refer new followers to my blog. Here’s how it’s going to work:

When you refer someone, have them email me telling me that they were referred by you. And make sure they tell me your name or it won't count. Once I get to 300 followers, I will see who has the most referrals and then the top 3 will get to fill out the entry option on the Rafflecopter form called "Refer a friend", which will be worth 3 entries. I will be sure to email those 3 people so they can do that entry. And if anyone fills out that entry that isn't one of the top 3, I will delete those entries. I hope you all have fun with this and good luck!!!!

My fiancé tracked my new laptop this morning and left me a note before he went to work saying that it is out for delivery so I’m just waiting for that to arrive!!! Also, I’m going to be taking the after pictures of the lamp shade I painted so I’ll be posting about that sometime this week, so look out for that. Have a great Tuesday everyone!!!!

Weekend Recap

Another week and weekend has come to an end. Nothing too interesting happened this weekend.

Friday night I finally finished painting the lamp shade from my lamp I got at Goodwill a few weeks ago (and that I blogged about here). I will post the before and after pictures sometime this week.

Saturday after work, my fiancé and I went down to my dad and step-mom’s for dinner. We’ve been alternating every other weekend for having each other over for dinner and this was our weekend to go down there. We had coconut chicken with macaroni and cheese and peas. And we also had cake for dessert which was delicious!! Then we went home and watched “No Strings Attached”. I thought it was really good!!! Now I wanna see “Friends With Benefits” which looks kind of similar to “No Strings Attached”. After the movie, my fiancé and I looked online for a new laptop for me!! The one I have now is 3 years old and hasn’t been working right for me recently, so it’s time for an upgrade. Plus, mine only has Windows XP on it, so I’d say I definitely need an upgrade. He ordered me an HP laptop that I should have by the end of the week!!!

Then earlier tonight we went down to my aunt’s house for my cousin’s birthday party. I decided to be mean to my cousin with his present. We got him a Kmart gift card so I wrapped the card then put it in a box stuffed with newspaper. Then I wrapped that box and put it in a bigger box. I put newspaper in the bigger box and my fiance filled a gatorade bottle with water to add weight to the box. Then I wrapped the big box. This definitely threw him off because he didn’t expect a gift card to be in the box.

Now it’s time to clip my coupons from the Sunday newspaper and scope out the deals. But like I said before, I’m not going shopping this week unless I can get stuff for under $1 per item of for free. Oh, and Big Brother is on so me and my fiance are watching that! Have a great Sunday night everyone!!!
