Well, one thing I can say for sure is that I certainly admire technical people. I have spent the last week tearing this Wordpress theme apart and modifying it so it doesn’t look exactly like all the other ones on Entrecard and it wasn’t fricken easy. This whole theme is put together in tiny pieces and just like writing a piece of code if you have a dot or coma out of place you can spend hours looking for it. I am dead tired It’s almost 10:30 am and I still haven’t gone to bed.

Yea the weekend is here and I’m sure everyone has big plans, but if I don’t go take a nap I wont get to enjoy any of it. I hope those of you that usually drop here will let me know if this blog template looks okay, and works right. I’m sure I will have to do a lot of readjusting to make it okay. I like free stuff and it’s great when you can modify something any way you want as long as you leave the persons link that put it together in the first place.

I was like some of those men that throw the instructions away when putting something together and has about 50 things left over that should go somewhere, but at a certain point you just don’t care. I’m thinking I will have to have someone make one for me that knows what they are doing further down the line unless this one holds up. I’m really sorry for any of you guys that stopped by in between my testing and if it was screwed up I certainly do apologise.

Have a Great Weekend

When Bill and I go on vacation we always look for Harley shops because we like to get different t-shirts from the different states, but we also like to ride. We don’t tow ours so we normally look for a place to rent one for a couple days. I found EagleRiders online and they have locations all over the USA and in many other countries. Maybe one day we can try a vacation on the bike, but it gets kind of tiring at our age. Maybe a trike.

Since this is a well established chain I was looking to see if they have a franchise in Kentucky, but they don’t, bummer. We’re going down there when my Grandson is born in August so we’ll be looking for a bike to ride. My son rides, but he said he was going to sell his so we’ll have to call around. I was really hoping EagleRider was located there because we get lost easily.

They even set up motorcycle tours and that would have been perfect for us to ride in a group ( Bill likes a gang ) and not get lost in an area we don’t know, but we could have enjoyed the sights knowing we’d get back to see our Grandbaby all in one piece. I know different cities give guided tours on buses, but I had no idea that anyone actually did Motorcycle Tours. Now that’s a cool idea.

I’ve been looking for a small bike so Bill can teach me to shift gears and use a clutch because as much as I love my scooter I want more power and I would feel safer with a bigger wheel base. My scooter doesn’t take corners like a real bike so I have to be extra careful. I was just checking the different routes they offer and the package deals.

Motorcycles are our thing so this would be perfect for us when Bill retires, some people take cruises we like to ride and someday unless I die unexpectedly I’ll be an EagleRider. I did see that they also sell preowned bikes so I’ll check into that and see if they have a little Rebel. I’m getting anxious to learn now and if I knew how to change gears I could ride along with Bill and not have to worry about the traffic being too fast or me too slow.

 Besides renting motorcycles they have ATVs, dirt bikes, scooters, snowmobiles, and watercrafts. So that’s handy to know encase we visit someplace like Branson where they do have a shop and I have been wanting to go there for a long time. I rather doubt that we could afford a franchise, but that would be cool to open up in our hometown. I see they have one in DC, but that’s one city I have a hard time getting around in.

They even have one way rental specials where you can pick one up and drop it off in another state. Okay that’s enough from me I need some sleep.

Bill doesn’t know how to cook small. If he makes soup he tries to cut down, but by the time he is done adding it ends up to be a humongous pot of soup. He made Hungarian noodle soup the other day and we ate for  two days, plus we took a big bowl to his son and family of 4 and it was enough to feed them, plus I dipped out a huge bowl for my brother. He would make an excellent mess hall cook.

I like steak on the weekend and I’m perfectly happy with just that, but Bill cracks me up because I of course make the salad and he does baked potatoes and takes care of the grill. Now that’s a lot of food with just that, but on occasion he also buys steamed shrimp and crablegs to go with it. No one can eat that much stuff at one time so guess what we have lots of left overs.

Okay if we start at eleven with the salad and let that settle, then 12 we can start snacking on the shrimp and crablegs, but wait I like to have a beer with my crablegs and that’s way to early to start drinking for me, so okay we can snack on the shrimp I don’t need beer for that. I’ll probably need a nap by then and then when I wake up I can do crablegs and have a beer, maybe I’ll eat my baked potato around 4 then maybe at 6 I’ll get around to my steak. Not!

Somehow I am going to have to find a way to cut down this big urge he has to cook for the whole neighborhood. We don’t need that much food especially now that we’re getting older, smaller portions are a must unless we split one steak which I’m not going to do because I’m a steak hog, but I could split a baked potato and we could have 2 crablegs each and a few shrimp instead of 2 pound of shrimp and 3 clusters each.

When I suggest that we simply have the crablegs and beer for supper he tells me that that isn’t a meal. Well it satisfies me so I say it is, throw in a little salad and walla a good nutritious meal and of course pot roast or pork roast is a Sunday meal and I ask why and he looks at me like I’m nuts. I have never had certain days that I set aside for eating anything unless it’s a holiday tradition.

Of course New Year Day I have to eat blackeyed peas so I can have lots of money during the year, like that ever happens. I get lots of gas, but never the money. Oh well enough of my nonsense I think I’ll go do something constructive.

I just created a new blog so that I can test widgets and themes before I use them on my real blogs and I had to use the upgraded  version of WordPress. I don’t know if I like the upgraded version or not, but the theme I tried yesterday certainly works on it and it certainly wont work here. I will try to get reciprocal drops done at some point today, but I can see I have a lot to consider with the options before me.

If I do decide to upgrade I will have to play with the new blog to see if I like it first because it’s laid out different from what I’m use to. I know I will have to deactivate all my widgets beforehand because the last time I did an upgrade I lost everything because I didn’t do that and I didn’t have a recent backup so the young man had to use what I had and I lost a lot of work I had done and time. I was very upset for a week.

Well crap I thought I had an okay design, but there is always something wrong somewhere and the one I had on today decided it didn’t want to show comments so here I am back with this one until I work on a different one. So just look over my fumbling and hopefully I’ll have something different up soon. Like I said I hate having the same one that I see all the time now. Thanks for being so nice and thanks to my 2 last commenter’s on the last post that liked the one I had up. The force seems to be against my template tonight.

This is a Monday update about the blog and my weekend. Well, I decided on this theme for now. I am hoping I put everything on here that was on the other one and haven’t totally messed it up. Let me know if you like this one please. I’m also thinking about upgrading the wordpress, but I don’t know if it’s stable and if people are still finding a lot of problems with it.

I will get back to my regular routine of dropping today and hopefully get some other things done. E-mail always piles up with tons of spam even with filters and sometimes a lot of family and serious mail gets put in there so I always have to go through and make sure I find it and that gets to be a royal pain.

My weekend was pleasant and we didn’t get the storm that was predicted so we had two good days outside. Unfortunately I didn’t get a lot accomplished with commitments on the Internet, but I’m sure with Summer everyone will be spending more of their time doing activities with their family. We can’t spend all our time working.

Bill normally does the grocery shopping, but I went with him this week because he said he gets tired of eating the same stuff all the time. Since he is the one shopping he could mix it up, but he doesn’t. At any rate I’m not allowed to go any more because he spent 70 dollars over what he normally spends. I never said I was a good shopper, in fact I am one woman that hates to shop.
