Internet. Today. Tired.

Me, before going online to sell stuff on Craig's List:

One word. Dial-up. Grrr... it is the bane of my existence right now. I tried to get on Qwest to check out DSL, but my internet was so slow it wouldn't work! Ironic, huh? :)

I'm trying to sell a bunch of stuff for my grandma on Craig's List. It's not going so well. It takes forever to upload anything, and I have the feeling not many people look on Craig's list. Hmmm... I think I may have to give up soon and join Ebay. Maybe then I can make some money. Well, if any of you are looking for a basketball hoop, Milk glass serving dish, Carpenters record, or one of the other random items I have for sale, please email me! Or better yet, buy it on Craig's List!! :)

How was my week? Well....

This past week I have been staying in a hotel up in Seattle- watching my niece! My sister has been doing job training, so I got the tedious (NOT!) task of watching the adorable Tinashe Chiedza-Joy!
It was so cool to finally bond with her after so long of not seeing her! She is a cutie pie and has the most hilarious expressions... she raises her eyebrows when she eats something and either screams, coughs, or giggles when she's happy :) I love her, and I just know she’s going to be one cool cat :)
It was kinda strange being with my older sister. We haven’t really known each other very well for the past few years, and it was weird spending such a big chunk of time with her.... granted, it was only after 5 when she got off and was soooo knackered, but whatever! :) I'm hoping that through me taking care of Tinashe, we will get to know each other again. It amazes me at how easy it is to take advantage of the people so close to us… thinking we know them when we really don’t… and it seems harder to get to know them than to get to know a complete stranger. It’s just our crazy world we live in, I guess!
