I know that it has been a very, very long time since I have posted anything on here, but I am still here. However, now I need help and ideas.

Rex and I are on the brink of a decision to get involved in arts and crafts weekend shows with our woodworking hobby. To do this, we'll need to get a tax id number, and we'll need a company name / recognizable identity. I'm soliciting for ideas on what to name our little, and I stress, little venture.

Remember, it's not just furniture. It's woodcrafts too. I've included one of my websites that has some of the pictures of our work. And it's custom. We'll try almost anything within reason. We've made anything from one of those paddles with a rubber ball attached to an elastic string that you walk around the house bouncing all day to a 55 gallon aquarium stand to pegboard wall dividers for a booth in a store to a single hole outhouse that serves as a toolshed. Indoor and outdoor furniture, toys, chalkboards, dartboards, picture frames, ceramic tile clocks, mirrors, and of course, rocking horses. We're even working on the last two pieces of a complete 5-piece bedroom set for ourselves. And we've got plans in the works for much more. The only requirement - it must involve wood.

I realize, trust me, totally realize this takes creativity, which I lack. That's another reason why I married Rex. Any help is appreciated.

Thank you all,

Lyn

FYI - Ideas so far...

Making Sawdust / Creating Sawdust

RLG Woodworks and Crafts - "RLG" is obviously initials. It could be used for a number of things.

Delta Woodworks - We're not keen on the idea of a name being tied to a location.

You're a photographer. You see beauty in every day
things and have the nack of capturing it on
film. Some people don't get it, others just
pretend to, and then there are the ones who
truely understand. You see everything through
the view on your camera and tend to remain
isolated from society. You'd rather watch then
act. You're probably a very nice person, yet
you tend not to let too many get close. You
have a tender soul and are an individual.

Well, I just knew that we were not going to have to go to work today.

A slight ice storm hit last night, but wasn't bad enough for us to stay at home. The roads are fine, but there is still some ice on the power lines and trees.

I could so use a snow day. I was all ready for one too. Rex and I had gotten the 4-wheeler ready, I packed some warm clothes and was just waiting for it to get bad so we could play in it.

Oh well, guess I'd better get back to work now.

Another Adventure Filled Weekend

2003-02-10T03:03:37Z

Got up at 5:30am (yeah, I can't believe it did it either) to get ready to go to the hills. Rex and I put on about 4 layers of clothing, loaded up the 4-wheeler, and headed to the hills of Lexington.

We met Brian, Rex's brother-in-law, and Hampton, Rex's nephew, at the hunting camp. We put on one more layer of clothes and got ready to head for the woods to enjoy a morning of riding and hiking through the woods. Stayed out there until about noon, came back to the camp for a snack, then headed back to riding and exploring the area.

About 3pm we loaded everything up and headed to Holmes County State Park for one of our geocaches. Hiked through the trails for about 20 minutes and finally found the cache. Spent about another 30 minutes hiking the trails in the area, then returned to the truck. Next stops were 2 other geocaches. One in Richland and another in Carrollton.

Got back into town and stopped by his parents to let them know we got back home okay and to pick up a movie they had rented for us. We were greeted with the words "Are you two hungry?" Man, I was starving so I know Rex was. Sat down to a wonderful dinner and conversation. His parents can always make me laugh at their stories they tell. They are great people that I really really like. Its the first time ever that I've met a boyfriend's parents, and I feel like I'm talking to my own parents. It's great.

Back home for showers and a little relaxation on the couch with some good movies. Then off to bed. It was a long day, but I had so much fun and I'm ready to do it again. :)

Hope everyone is doing well. Take care and will update at a later date.

Saturday was such a great day. Rex and I woke up early and got ready to go to Jackson. Summer was leaving at 12:20pm to go to California to live. Chad had been out there for a month now and the time had come for Summer to move out there as well.

We saw her off at the airport, we cried a little and hugged a lot. I know that I will miss them both so much, but that just gives us an excuse to travel out there now.

After we left the airport, we went shopping and rode around for a while. Then we stopped at the Macaroni Grill for a late lunch. The dinner was great. Rex actually got me to eat fried squid. I still can't believe it since I am such a picky eater, but I really enjoyed it. We ate and talked and ate some more.

When we got ready to leave town, Rex drove and we had a nice drive back through the country. Got back into town and rented some movies. Came home, changed into some comfy clothes and relaxed on the couch for a peaceful evening of watching tv.

So all in all, yesterday was a great day. I had a lot of fun and several memories were made. Now I am still on the search for the perfect V-Day gift for him. I am at such a loss right now about that, but hopefully I will figure something out. All suggestions are welcome on this topic. :)

Well, enough for the updates, I have to run now and go to the tanning bed so I can come back home, jump in the shower and get ready for the Super Bowl party tonight.

Talk to everyone one later. :) Take Care

Hello Peoples,

Just thought I would drop in and give a quick update. Things are getting busy for me a work. It's that time of year for us now. No more spending all day playing on the internet or watching movies which kinda sucks, but at least now the days are going by faster. It's 11:30 am now and I have already been in two meetings, worked on 2 laptops, and I'm in the process of reformating a couple more plus doing research on some software packages. Fun Fun huh? LOL

As far as the personal side of my life, things are going great. Rex and I are getting a lot closer and doing more of the "family" things...birthday parties, dinner with parents, spending time at home alone. I think I may know what happiness feels like now. There has been a little talk about our future plans together. Some of which include talking about moving to Nashville, TN. That plan is on the back burner and is just an option we have been toying with.

Who knows what we will end up doing, but like we said...as long as we do it together, we don't care. :)

Other than that, I'm in the process of trying to get my 10 year class reunion together. Man, I hate to admit that I have been out of High School for that long. I guess that is where the gray hair is coming from....I guess I'm just getting old.

Well back to work now, hope everyone is doing well.

I'm so bored.

2003-01-06T22:42:11Z

It is 4:30pm on Monday afternoon and I'm at work bored out of my mind. I have run out of things to look at on the internet. I have spent the past hour just thinking of words and typing them into search engines. Told ya....I'm just that bored.

Rex is in Nashville at the Beltwide Convention. He is currently 15 miles from my college roommate which sucks because I want to be there too. I could be having so much more fun than being here in this office.

I even joked around with my boss today and told him that I really want to go to Nashville. He tried to think of someway or an excuse to get me up there and make the company pay for it, but there isn't the need for an IT/IS person up there.

I think I'm headed to the tanning bed when I get home from work. That is after I stop by Rex's house and feed the fish and check on everything there.

Man, I miss him so much. I don't know if I will be able to make it a week. I wish it was Friday already....then he would be on his way back home to me. Yeah, I know....I'm pathatic....sue me. :)

I think Summer is coming to town tomorrow night and should be at my house by the time I get home from work. That should be fun....just the two of us sitting around and watching chic flicks all night. Sounds fun eh? Well Chad is in California and Rex is in Tenessee....what else are the two of us going to do.

Anyway, I have managed to kill a few more minutes, but I still have 20 left before I can go home.

Hope everyone is doing well and will update again at a later time.

Long Update

2002-12-29T02:46:25Z

Well the holidays are almost over. It has been a very busy week so far. Almost a week ago, one of my very good friends packed up and moved to Bakersfield, CA. Chad, I'm gonna miss you more than you know. Summer has moved back to her mom's for a month and then she will be moving to CA with Chad. Rex and I are the only ones left now. All we have is each other. Which in all reality, isn't a bad thing at all.

It has been almost 5 months since Rex and I started dating. I'm so happy that we found each other. Life is so much better now. I'm happy, he's happy, and even though we have each other...we still have our own life also. I have never known a relationship like this. Trusting someone you care about does make all the difference.

As for as the holidays go, it was very nice, but I'm glad that it is over. Spent Christmas Eve with Rex and his family. Then I went to my parents house for Christmas Day, then back at home with Rex for Christmas night. That right there was enough in my book. Being with the ones that you care about and love. The only thing missing was Chad and Summer, but thanks to technology...we can still keep in touch. Video Conferencing is the shit. :)

Other than fighting a cold that I have had for a week now, I spent most of the vacation time doing things around my house that I have been putting off for some time. I think I have almost got everything cleaned out and all the crap that was left here from the last two roommates thrown away. I'm sure I'm missing some things, but in time it will get put in its place. Maybe when I move out of this place and into a real house of my own. Man, I only dream about that day, but maybe it is getting closer to happening.

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas and hope everyone will party like they want to for New Years. That is the holiday that I can't wait for. I love New Years.

Take care everyone and I will update later when time allows.

Now, back to my newest addication...Starcraft. :)

Finally, the kids got to meet.

2002-12-12T14:59:39Z

Went over to Rex's last night. We decided that last night would be a good night for our "kids" to finally meet each other. I took my two little dogs (Max and Abby) over to meet Jake, a black lab.

We walked in the door and introduced them to each other and before the night was over they were all playing with one another like they had been friends for years. It was great. Rex and I were really impressed with how well they got along together.

We are trying to get to the point that we can bring them with us each time we come see one another and not have to leave them alone at home.

Well see how things turn out. :)

Hope everyone is doing good and getting everything ready for the holidays. Take care all and talk to y'all soon.

We are just that good. :)

2002-12-09T19:09:54Z

Ever been to a party where you spent all night drinking and sometimes making a fool out of yourself, only to spend the weekend recovering and then Monday morning you get the be the talk of the party?

Well, here is how good we are. Rex and I went to our company christmas party, walked in the door, got our name tags, turned and walked outside and went home. Today, we have been the most excited topic of that party. First all because the word finally came out to the rest of the company that we are dating. Second because we didn't bother to stay at the party. We came, saw, made our point and got the hell out of there and went home.

Yeah For Me.!!!

2002-11-18T22:10:10Z

I have managed to get rid of the last puppies that I had. All I have now is my two dogs (Max and Abby), my brother's dog (will go to him on Thanksgiving), and my cat, Smokie. My house is so peaceful now. It feels great.

Two Goals down.
1 - Get the ex to come get the last of his stuff and his 3 cats.
2 - Get rid of the rest of the puppies

Now time to work on the next goals
3 - House hunting..I want a rael house with a driveway, backyard and all the works.
4 - Move my antique furniture into my new house. I have been given a house full of antique furniture and now I have to find a place to put it. Getting a house is worth all the free antique furniture.

Life has gotten so much better now that my "divorce" is finally over. It took 11 and a half months to end a relationship with my ex-fiance. And that is time added on after he moved out and we broke up.

I don't know how to act anymore. Life has gotten a little easier and I don't know how to react or what to do. I'm scared that it won't last for long and this is all a dream, but I haven't seemed to wake up yet if it is a dream.

Maybe I just got to the lowest point in my life several months ago and I'm starting to get my life back and I never knew what it was like until now.

I have gotten off of my anti-depressants and I feel great. My close friends say that I am almost back to normal. Was I ever normal? Hmmmm.... in their eyes..maybe I was. Who knows.

I just know that I have not experienced life like I am right now and I am loving it.

Gotta run...take care people. Later.

Finally...It's Over.

2002-11-14T20:07:39Z

I dealt with my ex-fiance for I think the last time last night. It has taken us 11 and a half months to finally come to this point.

He came over last night to get his 2 cats that he left with me when he moved out in January. Plus take one more that we seemed to have adopted during the time we were together. Up until this point I have been taking care of them. I had tried several times to get him to come by and get them, but he never did.

He was suppose to be at my house at 6:30 last night. At 6:03pm there was a knock at the door, it was him. I couldn't believe it...not only did he show up, but he was early.

All of my friends kept calling to see what was going on. Thanks to all of you for caring enough to check on everything.

As it stands right now, I am less 3 cats. That leaves me with my original cat...Smokie. I am in the process of looking for a new place to live and I was not about to take on the responsibility of moving all of these animals with me. I think I had been more than kind enough to take care of their needs when legally they didn't belong to me. It is his turn now.

I think Smokie will adjust to being the only cat. I will just have to give her a little extra attention for a little while, but I think she will be ok. We will see.

I can breathe a sigh of relief now. I feel like I can actually move on in life now.
Rex, honey, thanks for all the support you gave me in getting ready to deal with this. Thanks for checking on me last night and thanks for bearing with me through it all. Now we can proceed to move forward with our lives. :)

Hey Faybee

2002-11-08T16:25:15Z

Fay,
I was wondering if you could help me with something, please. :)

What are some towns around in the Tahoe City, Sacramento area?

I am working on doing some job searching in that area and wasn't familiar with all the towns there. We have talked about living close to Lake Tahoe and being in a few hours driving distance from Squaw Valley. I am open to any suggestions currently.

There is nothing set in stone about moving out there, we are just playing around with the idea right now. Just checking to see what jobs are available and stuff like that.

If you could help me out, I would really be grateful.

Thanks girl and I hope everything is going well with you. :)
Talk to you soon.

Hey, what's this? An update...finally.

2002-11-07T19:16:10Z

There really hasn't been much to update anyone on. I don't think anyone would care to hear about the events at work. Dealing with bitchy users and broken computers. Actually things have been going really well as of lately. Our network is up and running and there have been no major issues with the users. Well except the hour long conversation I had last night trying to get this guy's cable modem working and connected to our network.

As far as the after work hours of my life... Chad has 37 days left until graduation and then he will be moving to California. Summer will probably stay here for a few months and then be on her way to California also.

I don't know what I will do without them. We have already decided that we will make trips out there to see them and they will visit as they can. But at least once a year, we will all take a week vacation and meet up at Lake Tahoe for a week of camping and relaxation.

Other than that, nothing else has really been going on. I just finished installing my networking hub in my house and now will start working on setting up my 2 servers sometime in the near future. :)

Hope everyone is doing well. Take care and stay out of trouble the best you can. :)
Talk to everyone later.

One Continuous Party After Another.

2002-10-28T21:10:42Z

Friday night...

Haunted House, going out with the girls to the bar, ended up at the Pike Party.
Got home about 3:30am after the sheriff's department came and closed the party down.
Sat up and talked with all the guys and slowly watched as one by one all of us crashed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Saturday Morning...

Woke up at 10:15am...went home to get a shower and get ready for kick off at 11:30.
Got back to Rex's and everyone was awake and getting ready for the events of the day.
Slowly people started leaving to either go and get things setup for the tailgating or gone to restock the coolers with beer.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Saturday Afternoon...

Went to the football stadium to take pictures of all the active Pikes and the pledges.
Took about an hour to get everyone there and in order for the pictures.

Went back to the house and tried to take a nap. I was so restless that I couldn't get to sleep. I got up and went shopping for clothes for the party that night.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Saturday night...

Went home to start getting ready for the After-Homecoming Pike party at the Rosedale Country Club.
Got back over at the house at 9pm...waited on the rest of the guys to get back from dinner at Crawdad's and then we headed out to Rosedale.
The party was great. Got to meet a lot of the alums. We stood around and talked to a lot of the people that were there. Then we got tired of fighting with the crowd, the noise and the cold. Rex and I got in the truck and came home. We got home...changed into some comfortable clothes and bummed out on the couch watching a movie.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sunday Morning...

Woke up at 11am...went back to Rex's to see how much damage had been done from the night before. We got to his house and everyone was gone except for 2 people. We sat around and talked about the events from the weekend and laughed at all the crazy stories that we have to tell now.

I had a great weekend, babe. Thank you. You are the greatest. :) Your friends are a blast to hang out with also. Now, it is time for a nap and time to get back to the real world.

After being in classes for the past three days, I am finally certified in fiber optics.

I have been in a training/certification class this week learning how to install, maintain and troubleshoot fiber optic installations. Should look great on a resume. :)

It was a pretty interesting class and I met some new people to keep in my contacts list in case any big projects come up and need help.

Other than that not much has been going on. Rex is leaving tonight for Memphis and then flying out in the morning for Florida. Him and a few of his friends from college are going down there to watch the Gators game and then going to ride the air boats on the Everglades. Sounds like so much fun. I will miss him, but I'm sure we will talk as much as possible and he will be back by the time I get home from work on Monday.

Hope everyone is doing well and I will update again when the time and events allow it.

Take care all.

Weekend Update

2002-10-06T15:24:08Z

I haven't been at home much this weekend, so I will have to give two days of update in one entry.

Friday night was great. Got home from work, cleaned up a little around the house then Rex came over to pick me up. We went over to his sister's house to babysit his 4 year old niece.

We played, watched Monsters, Inc. and played some more. I had a fun time. I love playing with kids. Those are the times that I can almost fully bring back the child in myself and act as crazy as I want to and it doesn't matter. The kids are having fun. :)

Got ready to leave and Kayln wanted me to read her a book before she went to sleep. I was about to climb on the edge of the bed with her and read her a bedtime story, then we got a call saying we had to be over at a friends house.

Left and went to our friends house where we ate a little bit, laid around on the couches and watched "Queen of the Damned." It started off as a good movie and probably ended as one as well, but about half way through the movie all 4 of us were passed out.

About 9am Rex woke me up...we had to go and run some errands to get ready for Saturday. All day football games.

Chad, Rex, and myself sat around all day yesterday eating, watching football, and napping...way to go LSU...kick ass. Congrats Tenn Vols on their win in the 5th overtime.

Summer got home from work and we ate dinner and went and rented a movie...Super Troopers. Good for laughs movie.

Then bedtime.

Not planning on doing much today except clean my house and do some things that I have been putting off.

Will update later when something else exciting happens. :)

Take care peoples. :)

Update

2002-10-02T16:51:42Z

I know that I haven't written in a while so I thought I would take a few minutes to let everyone know that I'm still here.

Nothing much has been going on. Working during the week. Spending time with friends after work and on the weekends. That pretty much sums up my life.

Nothing really exciting has happened in a while.

I will be in a Fiber Optic training class for three days next week and I'm really looking forward to it. I hope to learn a lot of cool ass things. Maybe even get a few independent jobs on the side and make a grand or so. That would be so nice. I would really come in handy right now.

Anyway, it's time for lunch and then back to work.

Talk to everyone later. Take care.

Working late...is it finally over for now?

2002-09-21T20:51:45Z

Worked until 10pm on Wednesday.

Until 7:30pm on Thursday (and then went out with friends and got in at 3am)

Then Friday is here. Finally, a few days off and some sleep. Fridays are looked forward in our office as in most. We all love our jobs and the people we work with, but when 5pm on Friday gets here....we are ready to get the hell outta there.

Not this Friday...I finally got to leave about 6:30pm. Not too bad, but considering the past 2 days...I was doing good to hold my eyes open, much less think straight.

Had to wait on a tech to dial in and re-boot our voice mail system. We finally got that back up and working Friday after lunch. Then I spent the rest of the day entering in employees names and extension. About 300 accounts to redo...just to start with.

Anyway, I waited and waited on the guy to call me and say he was finished and that everything was ok and I could finally go home. Never got the call..waited some more and tried calling everywhere to find him. No where to be found. I gave up ...called his answering service gave them my cell number and told them to get him to call me ASAP. I left and went home. Still no call by the way.

Passed out on my couch at 8pm...woke up at 2am. Phone rang...a friend calling. Some of our friends had went out and hadn't gotten home yet. We were worried that they had gotten in a wreck or something. I got up, went and picked her up and we rode thru town ...finally they call because they are at home and we are not there and they are worried. Imagine that. :)

Anyway...back to bed at around 5am and back up at 9 this morning.

Already did everything I needed to do today...now just relaxing a little and debating on whether or not if I want a nap.

Anywho...didn't mean to bore most of you, but just wanted to update.

Talk to y'all later. Bye for now. :)

Soooo Tired

2002-09-19T16:08:40Z

Worked 14 hours yesterday. Got back into town about 10:30pm, ate dinner, fell asleep on the couch with Rex. He woke me up about 12:30 and said he was going home. I got up, went home and went straight to my bed.

Was at work this morning at a little after 7.

It will be another long night tonight because my voice mail system died last night. Not just had a small problem, but rolled over and fucking died.

Now I am sitting at me desk trying to think of everything that has to be done once the new system gets here...some time this afternoon...I hope.

Once the system is up and running again, I have to manually enter about 300 users back into this system. Each one taking about 5 minutes to complete.

It is going to be another long day and night. If I get all of this shit done tonight, then I may just have to call in tomorrow and say that I won't be in until after lunch cause I'm still in the bed.

And it really sucks that I am paid by salary...no overtime for this one. :(

THE FOLLOWING IS A CHINESE GOOD LUCK TANTRA TOTEM.

You may not believe in this but the advice is great!
Read all the way down, you might discover something new!!!

ONE.
Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.

TWO.
Marry a man/woman you love to talk to. As you get older, their
conversational skills will be as important as any other.

THREE.
Don't believe all you hear, spend all you have or sleep all you want.

FOUR.
When you say, "I love you," mean it.

FIVE.
When you say, "I'm sorry," look the person in the eye.

SIX.
Be engaged at least six months before you get married.

SEVEN.
Believe in love at first sight.

EIGHT.
Never laugh at anyone's dreams. People who
don't have dreams don't have much.

NINE.
Love deeply and passionately. You might get hurt
but it's the only way to live life completely.

TEN.
In disagreements, fight fairly. Please No name calling.

ELEVEN.
Don't judge people by their relatives.

TWELVE.
Talk slowly but think quickly.

THIRTEEN.
When someone asks you a question you don't want
to answer, smile and ask, "Why do you want to know?"

FOURTEEN.
Remember that great love and great
achievements involve great risk.

FIFTEEN.
Say "bless you" when you hear someone sneeze.

SIXTEEN.
When you lose, don't lose the lesson.

SEVENTEEN.
Remember the three R's:
Respect for self;
Respect for others;
Responsibility for all your actions.

EIGHTEEN.
Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.

NINETEEN.
When you realize you've made a mistake,
take immediate steps to correct it.

TWENTY.
Smile when picking up the phone.
The caller will hear it in your voice.

TWENTY-ONE.
Spend some time alone

We're Back!!!

The pictures have been developed.
The digital pictures have been downloaded.
The video has been recorded to CD.

Damn what a trip!!

Talk about 2 day of nothing but pure relaxation.
No cares in the world.
No stress.

Getting up at sunrise.
Eating by sunset.
Heading to the tents before midnight.

Exploring the woods and hills.
Playing with the dogs.
Propping your feet up in the hammock and reading a good book.

Spending Friday night until Sunday afternoon with three very special people.
A group of friends that take care of one another and have a lot of fun also.

As you can tell, we are back from the camping trip. Damn, that trip was so much fun.

I am so relaxed now from one weekend. It is amazing what camping trips tend to do to people. You go back to the simple things in life where technology wasn't around, the fast paced days of the world doesn't matter. The fine art of true relaxation.

Thanks guys....Chad, Summer and Rex....you are the greatest. I love you guys. :)

Can't wait til tomorrow

This week has been hell. Had to work late Tuesday night. Was suppose to be outta here by 6pm, but of course things never go as planned. I finally got home at 10 and went straight to bed.

Got to work yesterday at 8am and it felt like I had never left.

Went over to Chad and Summer's for dinner and to talk about our camping trip this weekend. After that I went home and again went straight to bed. Damn I have been really tired lately.

One more day in the work week...and I won't be here all day...thank goodness. I am leaving at 4pm tomorrow to get home and get the last minute things loaded in my truck for the camping trip this weekend. This trip couldn't come at a better time. We are all stressed out and we get 3 days of nothing but relaxation and fun.

Well I am headed home now to pick up Summer and go to Wal-Mart and Kroger to get the last of the supplies that we will need. I'm so excited about this...you just don't know.

I am taking all of my cameras so I'm sure we will have plenty of pictures to share with our friends.

Talk to everyone later.
