Crafts, technical problems, college, ramblings
Yesterday, I built a paper towel holder to mount under our cabinet at home. We already had one made out of metal, but it was spring loaded, and if you were not careful ripping the towel, you ended up pulling the whole roll off the holder, and unrolling it halfway across the kitchen. So I decided to build this one. The only thing that still needs to be done is to stain it to match the cabinets. Not bad, for one day’s work, except maybe I should have drawn up a grand plan, with measurements, before I started.
Then I went to post the pictures of it (HERE), and discovered my navbar had stopped working. Turns out, when I added the pictures from Grammie’s Birthday party, I had one missing quote, ” instead of “”, and so the whole thing stopped working right. Don’t you love computers?
Five minutes later, it was fixed, but it’s still annoying.
I was supposed to make some progress in cleaning my room today (before I depart for college, and the room gets another use), and should leave for work in an hour, so it’s probably time to sign off.
Or not..a few more thoughts. A&J now has a website, although it is definitely one of the poorer sites i have seen, design wise.
And I got my (college) roommate assignment today. I have an e-mail address for him, but have no clue what to say/write, etc. I always hate meeting new people, and especially hate trying to make new friends. I think I’ll probably wait a few days, and see if he does anything, and put it off for a few days. He’s from Kansas, so he’ll probably get the letter tomorrow.
Okay, off to my room I go, to attempt to rearrange things so it looks cleaner. (How many people actually clean their rooms? Perhaps I should…it’s been at least since high school, if not longer! And I really should go.
Bye.
