Our web diaryThe weblog of Marlene and Sean Rivinus. This weblog covers events in our lives, photography, cooking, household and family interests.Investing Kitty- April 25, 2008 Cats are so funny to watch. I turned on the TV set in my office and kitty was absorbed with CNBC.http://type.rivinus.com/archives/000407.html Mitzi- April 21, 2008 Well with the new house comes another new addition. We picked up this little guy, a 2-3 year old domestic short hair, from animal control today. His is currently scoping out the house and hopefully will settle in nicely. He is a very affectionate kitty, but needs to aclimatize to his new home. I am sure we will have dozens of pictures for you once he settles down.http://type.rivinus.com/archives/000406.html Billie Jeans Grasshopper Grill Gastonia, NC- April 20, 2008 Now that we have a new house in a new city, we have to find out about the local restaurants. Billie Jeans Grasshopper Grill is an American Fare restaurant located on Union Road about 10 minutes from our house. Marlene had a steak salad and I had a half club with potato soup. We also had fried pickles. Service was quick and the food was fine. It was your typical American Fare. Price in the $8-12 range.http://type.rivinus.com/archives/000405.html Addition to the fleet- April 19, 2008 Our Honda Accord was stolen the third time from the parking lot at Providence Square Apartments. This happened the day before we were moving to the new house. Just another added stress to go with everything else that had been going. They found the car about a week after Easter. Our insurance company dedcide to total it, so we had to find something else. Marlene was in various rentals cars for almost four weeks. BTW, I cannot saw enough about Priceline for car rentals. It is a great way to..http://type.rivinus.com/archives/000404.html Charlotte Area Transit System- April 16, 2008 This is a link to a great article about the Charlotte Area Transit System. We just spent over half-billion dollars on a new, 9 mile long, train set. In my opinion, that money would have been better spent on developing cross town routes and doing road improvements.http://type.rivinus.com/archives/000403.html 95 Years- April 13, 2008 Finally have the pictures up from Grandmother's 95th birthday.http://type.rivinus.com/archives/000402.html |
