AND LIFE JUST ROLLS ALONG

I’m not sure what the purpose or meaning behind that title is, but eh you know it works. So how was everyone’s weekend? I know, I know it has been a whole week since my last post. I do hope that some of you guys found the shared links helpful. My weekend was good. Far too short, but good just the same. What did I do you ask? Hmmm, let’s see. Saturday I slept in (shock) and then did a little cleaning, showered, dressed and then headed to the outside mall center with my brother. I did find two cute shirts from American Eagle as well as a couple of goodies from Sephora. One goodie in particular is this stuff called, “Weather Everything” that seals in your eyeliner or shadow. The folks from Bare Escentuals make it and it is GREAT! After my shopping trip, I came home and hung out with the nephew who was visiting for the afternoon. That evening we decided to watch a movie at home. As you can see from my twitter event log to the right —- > , we chose Into The West. Into The West was a TV Mini Series in 2005 and spans several decades. The basis of the story is two families : one white family and one Lakota family and how their lives interceded and conflicted. I have seen it before, but it is one that I never tire of. It is around 9 hours long, so we have split it up into a few days. We should be able to finish it up tonight or tomorrow night.

In the spirit of last Monday, I do have a few links to share with you this morning. I haven’t done much surfing this week, but my bookmarks are always bursting at the seams. The first link is geared more towards the musically inclined.

1. ChordBook.com - This is the coolest feature! For folks that aren’t all that experienced, but want desperately to learn to play this application is very useful.
2. WebDesign.org - Shiny Web 2.0 Graphics. This tutorial is pretty darn cool. I don’t use many shiny effects here at 12String.org, but I do use it for various projects away from here.
3. CurrentCodes.com is excellent for those of us on a budget. Who isn’t on a budget these days? This place is packed pull of codes that can be used as coupons for online shopping. Go check it out - you just might save some money. SWEET!

I hope you guys will have fun with those. Last night, I was up late working on the navigation for this place. The ugly bar was ticking me off, so I had to do something about it. I do love these little fabric strips. They make it look very scrapbook - ish. I was having issues making it look good in FF and IE, so if you are using a different browser and things look funky to you, please let me know. I have left text based navigation for those that do not use images. It is located just above this entry. I will be fixing that up as well, so folks won’t have any issues finding it. I will also be snazzing up the Twitter section - it is just blah right now, but not for long. Well, today is getting older and I have yet to shower and dress. Have a wonderful Monday readers - take care.
