oly cats!!!!

I finally have my computer back. It had a severe issue of which no one has seen the like of before. It went to a professional 'mechanic' and they are completely stumped as to what happened to it and completely stumped how they 'fixed' it. They saw the problem, which was the oddest thing any of us had seen and failed to even look anything close to being a working computer. We think aliens may have had something to do with it, but we cannot be 100% sure on that theory. But that is the reason I have not been blogging. 

At any rate, I have a computer back and I am on the roll again. Five pages and printing to go. Thursday the magazine will be out. I will never have been so happy to have one printed and gone. Even if it has really cool stuff in this one, I cannot say this will ever be my favorite issue, too much of a weird time getting it together this time. I may change my mind one day though.

I have been busy regardless of being without a computer, and been doing things such as starting 4 gallons of wine, making cheese, bread like crazy, homemade ravioli for dinner last night and lots of other things. Having no TV, no DVD, no computer was not as nearly bad as some people are lead to believe! In truth it was nice getting a 'vacation' from the computer. 

Picture Above: 4 Gallons of wine currently on the go. We made it on the night the lunar eclipse was happening, running outside every few minutes to check the eclipse's progress. We shall not see another full lunar eclipse for 3 years. 

Picture Below: 24 homemade ravioli with homemade cheese and spinach filling. Boiled and then topped with garlic butter as I was too tired to make Alfredo sauce. 

I ran my sleddogs for the last time this season. The ground is melting away.. though there is still many feet of snow. The trails are still there, but unless you get out on them early in the morning, they tend to soften up by afternoon. If I want to go run with mushing friends, we will need to go higher up into the mountains and they said they would help me toss my boxes back on my truck. I have not had any time to run them anyway.

Tonight I had a couple meetings to go to for work and I have my 'Little Sister' with me all weekend so she got to go with me. My other company who has been here for the week went home this morning. It has been a full week.
