Photo blogging and other updates

Who thought that taking a picture every day and posting it to a blog with a few descriptive words would be so difficult?

To undertake such a task requires few things...
1. Blog
2. Camera
3. Way to transfer photo from camera to blog

And that's where it does indeed get difficult. My camera cord and camera never seem to be at the same place at the same time. So, while I have been taking pictures, I am failing at the transferring-them-to-the-computer portion of this task. And let's not get started with the issues of iPhoto and blogger - wonder if WordPress is better....?

In other news...

This weekend is homecoming for the number 5 ranked UC Bearcats. Jerry and I are attending an Open House Homecoming event for my undergraduate scholarship program. That should be interesting because they want money and we don't have any to give them, but it will be good to see old friends and former classmates.

The "renovations" to the house are slowly coming together. We have removed all the furniture from the dining room and I am going to scrub the walls and floors this weekend, which means we will be ready to begin sanding the floors in that room at any time. My hope is to be able to move the living room furniture to the garage this weekend as well, giving Jerry the ability to start sanding the floors as early as 10/30 - which will be good if we can get most of the work done on the 30th and 31st because we can get away from the house without worrying about where to stay or any work/travel issues.

We are spending the 31st with the Mangus's and celebrating little D's first Halloween - by sitting around their house, eating pizza, watching a scary movie, and answering the door for the hordes of children begging for candy. I'm sure we will be dressing the baby up in his Halloween costume. I don't know what it is, so it will be entertaining I'm sure. Hmmm... this sounds like an excellent opportunity to possibly make gingerbread mummies. I am proceeding with caution on that idea though.

And in my other free time, I am still trying to plan a wedding. I am hoping to drag Jerry and my parents out to look at possible Cincinnati venues the first weekend of November. Ma and Pa Hoell will be in Vegas next week, so I am attempting to send them on a little Vegas scouting trip as well. I'm going to try to make calendars for them when my work and school projects die down a little after this week (yay!).

But in the mean time, work does call... so I'm off! Look for photo blog posts coming soon!
