We're back!!!!

With no thanks to HP, who sent our computer back without actually fixing it, the beans bit the bullet and bought a new computer. Of course it wasn't an HP and,no, it wasn't a Mac either (a bit to pricey for them). They bought a Dell laptop. It's got oodles and oodles of space to save tons of pictures of us and runs really fast. Plus it has a ten-key on the keyboard,which sold Mom on loosing the pursestrings to buy a little bit nicer one that she had intended to. Plus, it's got a much larger screen than the old one and it's RED, which she loved! So now we'll be able to post lots of the pictures she's taken of us recently. Thanks for sticking with us through the silent times!

HP Sucks - Beware

A warning from the Furballs - Do not buy an HP product. Our computer that is less than two years old is not working for the forth time! We sent it back to HP because the screen is so dark it can't be read for the second time. Now that they have the computer, they are telling us that they won't fix it unless we send them $298 (about half the money we spent to buy the piece of &*$%!) even though they sent us e-mails twice saying that this repair would be free. They say the motherboard is bad and that's not covered by the warranty. Tell me, how does a motherboard go bad in less than one year????? HP's customer "service" sucks. Stay away, buy a Mac, IBM, or anything else, but don't buy HP! They don't stand behind their products.

Sad news

The furballs are going to have to take a hiatus from blogging. Our stupid HP computer isn't working again. It's not even two years old and the beins have had to send it back to HP three times and have it in to repair another time. This time, the screen isn't working again. It's so dark that Mommy can't hardly read what's on the screen. So we'll be gone for a week to ten days and won't be able to visit all our friends blogs. But we'll be back after the (really bad word) people at HP fix this (real bad word) computer.

Matt hunting page

Mom's been playing in her room again. She finally finished the scrapbooks for her mom and mom-in-law so it's back to making pages for her own collection. She finished one the other day about cutting off her hair to give to Locks of Love and thought it was pretty good until she finished this one tonight. It's such a simple page: a piece of paper with some deer, a matted journal block and a double matted photo (that's not even of good quality because Daddy took it with his Blackberry). Altogether it took no more than about a half-an-hour and most of that was struggling to do the journalling (the part she hates the most), but it turned out to be probably her favorite page. Well, maybe it's the second favorite, with the favorite being the Nainaimo bars page in book she did for her Mom. I guess not all scrapbooking has to take a long time. :)

What did you do????

The beins came home tonight to find this:

So we were scolded and given furball rule of the house eleventy hundred and five:

You may not bring home "friends" and eat them.

(P.S. They still haven't found the rest of the bird.)

KittyTV is on!

We are pleased to announce that the second channel of KittyTV is up and running at our house (but for some reason the water looks much darker in this picture than it does in real life) and all the furballs are ecstatic, especially Smoke, pictured here checking out feeding time, and Chewie. Now they have two channels to watch: Oscar and his three bala companions in the upstairs tank and angels, tiger barbs, catfish and small balas downstairs. All cats are welcome to teleport over for some entertainment!
