Plans for the kittens....

Since the kittens will be coming home soon I've been looking at ways to document their progress. But since my camera and video cam are pretty old I've been looking at upgrading. Of course that will cost money so I can't say it will happen very soon. But I did find out Scott Bourne is having a contest for a bunch of things that would help in my quest. Go on over to his site  http://www.photofocus.com and see how you can enter yourself and keep your fingers crossed for me. 

I've been looking at the little flip mino video cameras. If anyone has one let me know your thoughts. 

Also once they are home I won't be blogging too much more about them here. I got turned onto mycatspace.com it just as ugly as the real myspace but I figured it would be a better place to update friend about them without boring my friend and family that can't understand my love of cats

Not a replacement....


My husband & I can not be without a little critter in our lives. We miss Osiris so much. But we now have a plan. A friend of ours is a foster parent to cats all the time. Today we went over his house. No one can ever replace Osiris but there is no reason we can't love another cat or two. :) Here is a picture of Dinner Time. One of the Calico's fell asleep on my lap - I can't tell from the back but that's Molly and the Gray and White Kitty in the center of them all is the little boy that picked Frank. They are all so cute its hard to choose but it really wasn't our choice. :) As soon as they are big enough and had their surgeries we will have a happy home again.

R.I.P Osiris...



















Today we needed to make the hardest decision in any pet owners life. To put our beloved cat to sleep. We adopted him about 10yrs ago after his last owner abandoned him. The vet estimated he was about 16 or 17 years old. We will never know for sure.

As soon as he came into our life he became the king of the house. He slept on us, he tried to steal our food, but we loved him and he loved us back. Being a siamese he talked to us and purred so loud he could wake you from the next room. 

I won't go into the gory details but his health has been going down hill and the vet felt that any of the possibilities would be life ending and he would be in pain. It was a hard decision, but we put in to sleep rather than have him suffer any more. He will be in our hearts forever.

My predictions for tonights BSG...

OK so I'll admit, I was wrong. I thought Gaita was going to be the final 5th Cylon. But thats not gonna stop me from saying my piece about other things...

1. I think Starbuck and Baltar are half bro/sis AND they are Hybrids. They either share a cylon mom or dad. I'm thinking dad because of the music connection. That is why Baltar has a 6 in his head and why Starbuck is re-incarnated. 

2. My other thought is that all of the people are either half or full cylons. Which would explain how they share dreams and how Baltar is in 6's head.

I guess we will find out tonight and no mater what happens we won't be happy.

I felt like an Alien....

Until Friday, I thought I had the 3d glasses I needed for the Super Bowl commercials and for Chuck. But oh no... these are new glasses. They tell me they have them at your local grocery or drug store, so out I trek husband in tow. We tried the little places first, but they didn't even know what I was talking about. Then we headed out to some bigger stores. CVS - fail, Met Food - fail, Seven-11 - fail. Most people looked at me like I had 2 heads. They had no clue what I was talking about. I can see now why there will be so many people without TV when the digital TV switch happens. We finally found some at Stop & Shop. But that was after trekking all over town for 3 hours. They really didn't do a very good job of promoting it.

What I miss from my Palm TX....

What I miss from my Palm TX that I really hope I can get on my ipod Touch (here in referred to as the iTouch, which really should have been its name but thats a different post for another day)

Games:
- Alchemy - You had to place a piece on a board kind of like uno. You had to match the color or symbol. It was easy in the beginning but when 2 pieces had to connect it got hard fast.
- Cake Mania - Build cakes to take care of customers and make money.
- Bounce Out - move balls around to have 3 so they would bounce out of the board.
- Candy Train - A train is chugging along a track, you need to move it around the board to pick up the next cars. When you get the caboose you then have to maneuver it to the station.
- NoMess - each round puts 3 random characters on a board. You need to move them so you get 5 in a row for them to disappear.
- Plant Tycoon - Making different plants to find 4 magical plants. Similar to the Fish Tycoon that is on the iTouch but I like Plant Tycoon better
- ShapeShifter - Carnaval setting where you have to drag pieces on to a moving board. The goal is to fill in the whole board before time runs out.
- Tot's & Togs - you are running a clothing store. You need to lay out the store and buy clothing that will or won't sell. 
One thing I will miss is that my apps were listed alphabetically on the palm. Also it had wifi, bluetooth and IR. 

So - iTouch owners. Please post here any games you found similar to the ones above that I should try. Below is a list of what I use most on my iTouch now.

 - AppSnipper - Tells you the apps on sale and all the new apps in the iTunes app store. It also will follow a program you ask it to watch and lets you know when the price is where you want it.
 - Units - convert any measurements - So far this is the best one I've found, but I know there are a lot
 - ShopShop - Shopping list program - still not everything I want but it will do. I guess my dream app would be one that let me have a closet and a fridge and let me list what's in it. Then lets me add items from there into my shopping list. When its checked off the list it goes back where it came from. Why do I want this, well, sometimes I'll see something new in the store and not remember if I have what goes with it at home or not. 
 - 1Password - Need I say more, this program has saved my but more than once.
 - Mancala - move your marbles around the board until yours are all done getting the most in your pile. 
 - Topple - an odd take on tetris
 - Gemlogic - I tried the Free version and loved it so much I bought it. It's like bejeweled but as you advance you get more rows and columns making it harder. You can also switch gems anywhere on the board. 
 - TikiTowers - Build a tower, let the monkeys go. If they survive your tower you move on.
 - Newsstand - So far the best rss reader I've found. I use google reader to collect all my feeds so using the google app works too but Newsstand gives you more options on what you want to do with a feed. 
 - Tweetie - Twitter app (duh) :)

I of course have tons of other apps but these are my must haves. Put some of your must have in the comments.
