I've spent the better part of the past few days messing around on my new blog. I am trying to get as much transfered from here to there as possible before I let ya'll come visit me over there. Unfortunately, yesterday, while messing around with code I knew not anything about, I royally screwed the whole thing up. Now, when I go to my new blog site, I get this horribly ugly error that includes the words "Bad arguments," "Permission denied," and "WARNING: implode." The word implode causes me the most concern. I do not want my new blog to implode. I want to change it back to the way it was before, all simple and neat and tidy. But I've gone and messed it all up! And I can't seem to get it fixed! Of course, I found a really nice easy-to-understand-step-by-step FAQ AFTER I broke everything. *heavy sigh* Alas, that's what Honeys are for, right? I'm going to use my Loving Wife Charms on him and see if he'll try to fix it for me. Yikes!

And now on to something I know how to do without screwing up...PICTURES!!!

On Friday night, we went to our old family friends' (S & J) house for dinner and poker. These two have been so close to me and my dad for many years, I pretty much consider them family. Anyway, dad and his gf were there, and so was J's sister. J was going in for a craniotomy on Monday to remove an arterial aneurysm. So we were getting together for one last hurrah before the surgery and her long rehabilitation.

Here is dad and his GF and S examining a map:


This is a hat and a sign I made for it for J to wear after her surgery:


J, modelling the hat:


Word is that J made it through the surgery just fine and will be in ICU for probably the rest of the week. *whew*

Honey hung up our instruments in the "music room:"


And here are the four paint colors I was testing out in my room:


I sort of like the lavender in the middle but don't really care for either of the greens and the purple on the end is too dark. I'm going to take my quilt into the paint shop this week to try and better match the paint to it.
