What's Up For Today?

So... I backtracked that Sims 2 Legacy to get them where they were when my computer had a burp.  Turned out ok. I have a few pictures to share over at [livejournal.com profile] 2addicted2sims2 in the near future. The legacy founder, an adult female married an elder. I set up a new town just for that. It's going to be interesting to see who wants what. I'm not exactly following all the rules, but eh... it's my game and I'm going to have fun with it!

Monday is Kevin's day off, so, we did the semi-usual running about town. Hit the game store and Hobby Lobby. Got some neat gee whiz cool stuff. Did the grocery shopping. I'm thinking kielbasa and onions or beef roast in the crock pot for dinner.

Need to get a drapery rod and drapes for Tom's room. It still needs to be painted and I still need a bigger ladder to get to the stuff over the closet. Kevin's den needs new draperies, floor coverings, and a futon pad. Except for the linoleum, I can cover all these things this week. 

Tom cleaned out a pile of the crap in his bathroom. That will be helpful. I mean, really, how many containers of shampoo, conditioner, shaving cream, etc., does one need out at a time? I told him that one out a time is enough.

Slowly been cleaning out a lot of old stuff. Going to see about dropping off the hard cover books for donation at the library tomorrow while I'm out shopping.

Redid the LJ filter titles, etc. up to April 2006. So if you had access to posts for before that and you no longer do, they have been made private to eliminate the one too many filters I set up. I eliminated 9 of them at this point.



Every so often, I surf eBay. I look for:
things I can't afford and would like to have
things I had as a kid and want to replace or want to see what people are paying for them

I have a list that I look for from time to time:
Tutti, Barbie's Tiny Sister - preferably with titian hair.
Skipper, Barbie's Little Sister - w/titian hair and bendable legs.
1990 Bob Mackie Gold Edition Barbie (First in a series)
Innovation Comics - Quantum Leap - either issue 3 or 4 is what I need to finish the set.
Dark Ages Fae - White Wolf Publishing

I'm sure there are plenty of other things I look for, but those were in my current pile.
