10:21 am - Louisiana
I have recently visited my grandmother in Louisiana and I must say she dont seem to be as bad off as some were saying she was. She still has alot of her right mind but she cant walk like she use to on her own no more because her legs get weak and her knees buckle under her and she falls.
While I was visiting her in Louisiana, I noticed that her theropy was helping her. She can still grab on tight enough to pinch you though LOL. She has her grip still almost as tight as it was before. There are some things she dont remember but for the most part she remembers alot. She sure has had her time at rough life when she was younger as one that had to go out and pick cotton and raise 3 children. I can say she has done a good job at what she has accomplished, I just wish my mom would have turned out more like my Aunt Leona LOL.
While in Louisiana, I was able to go by the lane where I grew up and I must say it does NOT look the same no more. For some reason, I did NOT feel at home no more. I felt more at home at my aunts house in Lettsworth. There are some new homes built now in the lane and half of them I could not tell you who lives where no more. There are only a few houses there that the original owners are still living in them today.

03:32 pm - Camping
We went on a camping trip out to Gennie Springs and I can honestly say we had a good time. Hopefully we will get to go back again this year but after hurricanes are done. We managed to leave the camp ground just before all the rains and all from hurricane Dennis passed through. We had a total of only 8 people that showed up but we still had a good time. We left the campground Sat morning and went over to a friends house Sat night and Sun night. Sat night we were up sort of late watching movies and playing spades and Sun night we cooked ribs and played dominos. We had fun all in all and plan on doing it again soon. The next camping trip will be by invite only though from what I know.

03:35 pm - Grandmother
Well found out today that my grandmother took a turn for the worse after going through liver cancer for the second time. The doctors cant exactly say how much time she has left and hopefully I will be able to go with my mom to Louisiana to see her and help them with cleaning out my grandmothers apartment. I will know more on whats what after the camping trip.

08:29 am - Memorial Day Weekend
I can honestly say we had a good weekend. We had friends over for the weekend and I think we all had a good time. Everyone went home happy ;). We had ribs on Saturday night, steaks on Sunday night, took it easy on Monday since all the partying was done Saturday and Sunday. Hopefully we can have another fun filled weekend like that one was ;). I think some people got luckier than they thought they would LOL but it is ok as long as they are happy now :)

11:55 am - Finally Moved
I know it has been a while since I wrote anything in here but it has been kind of hectic around here lately. Problems are occuring around here left and right and we were in the process of looking for houses to move.
Well we finally moved out of that hell hole of apartments where there was alot of drug activity, prostitution rings, alot of noise late at night, maintenance issues, unfriendly staff in the front office (except for the option of one or two staff members) and who knows what else going on around there. We moved into a house, still rent, but its better than an apt. If you would like to see the house we in now have a look at http://www.centaurihome.net/newhse.html.
Well we have been in this house now since March, 1, 2005 and yesterday was the first time I met any of the neighbors and talked to them a bit. Sad way to meet neighbors by seeing a neighbors house on fire. At aproximately 4:30 yesterday afternoon I heard the horn from the firetruck. When I walked outside the smoke was so thick and black you could not even see the house. Thankfully no one was injured in the fire but sadly they lost everything due to smoke and water damage. They have no idea how the fire started yet that I know of. Hopefully the neighbors I havent met already I will meet on better circumstances.
As far as we can tell now, it is a quiet neighborhood in a culdasac. The neighbors seem to be very nice and friendly. Hopefully, we will meet all the neighbors one day and who knows we may even become friends with neighbors here unlike at the apt. complex.

04:07 am - Been a while
well I know its been a while since I posted anything in here but I guess you can say its been kind of hecktic around here lately. For the past few days here I have been trying to figure out my computer and installing freebsd on it (which wont load) and putting back windows on it (and I hate windows). I finally managed to get freebsd on the spare puter and set up with all things that I use and it is working as far as I can tell for now. Hopefully one of these days I will have another puter of my own to set up on freebsd and let this one go back to being a spare one for backup. well I guess this is about it for now other than stating we had a quiet xmas and a happy new year. I will try to add more in as time goes on. Hopefully I will be able to add in on a regular basis.

08:31 pm - finally
Well finally I got the chat rooms page done and it is right now. The words are no longer overlapping on the shells on the left hand side. Yesterday was not an exactly exciting day. Was running on only 45 min of sleep since I was up all night making sure the cat was not getting into food and water since he couldnt have it after 10 pm because he was going get neutered yesterday. I know he wasnt happy when we brought him home LOL He was hissing and growling at me like mad. Was glad when today he was more back to normal.

02:37 pm - Friends From The Net
Funny how you make so many friends on the internet, meet them in person, get to know them then once your life changes such as getting married or whatever, most of them act like you have the plague or something. We have met several people from on line and majority of them dont even say hi to us no more. We still have a couple of them that do still talk to us and stay in touch.
No matter what kind of person you are wether you get married or not, if someone is considered your friend, they should be happy for ya if you get married or whatever and you are happy.
Be yourself. If someone cant accept you for who you are the way you are then the hell with them you dont need them.

04:40 pm - Hurricane Frances
Well, after 3 weeks of staying home for hurricane Charley, we were hit by Frances. I must say I will be glad when hurricane season is over with. Needless to say, since we could not find a generator here in Orlando, we were able to get one in Pensecola. Since we were driving that 7 hr drive to pick up the generator in Pensecola and we have friends that live in that area, we stayed up there with them from Thursday night to yesterday. Suprisingly, we got into Orlando and found that not much damage had been done. Charley loosened up alot of trees and broke a few branches and Frances just finished them off. In our complex now we just have some apts. that have leaky roofs but all in all, again, our place was not damaged at all. As I find pictures of the damage that Frances has done in other places I will add them to my webpage.

10:49 pm - Finally
Well I finally recently found out that my great Aunt Agnes is still alive at 88 yrs old. She constantly laughs and says laughter is the best medicine and that is the same thing that I say. My husband and I are planning to go to Louisiana around Thanksgiving and if Aunt Agnes is up to it we will bring her with us so she can see other family memebers that she has not seen in a long time. I think she will really like that. I know I will be glad to see her since I have not seen her in years. I probably wont even recognize her.

12:02 am - Family Tree
Well I finally got the names I needed to start the family tree I wanted to work on. I will have a link to it from my home page with pictures of the ones I have pictures to and a little bit about themselves. I will do my best to make it to where it is easy to get access too.

08:00 am - Hurricane Charley
Well, we survived the hurricane that passed right over us here in Orlando. We had the eye of it go right over us and luckily we had no damage to our car or our apt. One lady here was not so lucky, her ceiling fell through and one neighbor had his headlight and signal light knocked out of his car when a tree branch fell and hit it. To view the pictures of the damage here in our complex, look at http://centauri.50megs.com/charley2.html. Not a nice way to spend a birthday to wake up with no electricity the day after a hurricane passes over but we survived and still managed to have a birthday cake.

10:57 am - Changes
Yes I know I change things alot often sometimes then I dont make changes on nothing
for a while. That is just who I am. I always say to everyone, "accept me for who I
am the way I am or the hell with ya I dont need ya." I have always been that way and
will continue to be that way. If you are not happy with viewing the changes I have
made on my site the only thing I can say is dont view it. As it is like other pages,
changes are always made to web sites.

02:23 pm - Web Site
Finally I have currently gotten my web site like I want it. But then again, who
knows, some things may change on it from time to time. One never knows what else
will be added or what will be deleted or even re-worded all together. You just never
know until you look and see. I have currently added some pages on my site. One of
the pages I added will be found usefull for irc since it contains all the commands we
normally use or normally forget.

11:20 pm - Hooters
Interesting to go eat at a place you have never been to but heard about.
After bowling went to eat dinner at Hooters. It is kind of an interesting place to go
that is different. Waitresses dont wear much with them little
short shorts they wear LOL.
Funny how that turns on the guys huh? Well when you looking at alot of clevage and
part of butt cheeks hanging out you can see why guys like Hooters. To view more about
Hooters go to their home site at http://www.hooters.com

11:17 pm - 4th of July
We had a great 4th of July weekend. We spent Saturday at Islands of
Adventure at Universal and then camped out at Wallaby Ranch to go hang
gliding Sunday morning.
We were up for about 7:30 a.m Sunday morning and by 8:00 a.m. we were
walking down the road to meet with the tow planes and everyone else that
was hang gliding that day. Cent went up in the hang glider and I went up
in the open plane. I had never been hang gliding before but decided to go
up in the open plane to catch photos of the grounds and Cent in the hang
glider. All in all it was a fun day.
