Ninja smooth happiness

I realized something last night.
I don't have tile on my kitchen countertops.

Look


I feel as though I must say here that my husband is still working on the space where the computer will go so I am suffering on our old computer which has a paint program which I cannot figure out so no cropping is taking place in photos which totally makes me crazy, but after wasting a good 10 minutes trying to figure it out I just gave up because I really just wanted to post some pictures but can't even do that well because for some reason I cannot cut and paste and cannot for the life of me remember the control buttons for this and know I should just google the information but don't want to admit that I cannot remember so posting is completly frustrating instead of being fun AND for some reason spell check is not on. Rant over, til I try to post the next picture! Argh!!!


Why is this no tile thing a big deal you wonder?

Well, with tile comes grout and all those little crevices to scrub every time the surface is used.

Oh the hours of my life used up on scrubbing grout.

But, no more my friends, it is smooth sailing now.


I realized this last night as I got the dishwasher loaded and made it around the kitchen in no time flat with all the surfaces cleaned in the amount of time it would have taken to clean a single section in the old place.

I was appreciating this all along but couldn't figure out why.


I am slow like that sometimes.

Or stubborn, depending on the task and mood.


I decided that you needed to know the key controls for cutting and pasting, so I did google it...for your benefit... of course.

Here you go, cause I care....
Windows program key combinations

CTRL+C: Copy
CTRL+X: Cut
CTRL+V: Paste
CTRL+Z: Undo
CTRL+B: Bold
CTRL+U: Underline
Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh it didn't work.
I CTRL+X 'd and it did cut, but then I CTRL+V'd and it didn't paste, so I had to ooooch this picture all the way down from the top.
It is a good thing I care about your blog experience or pictures would cease until I am settled back on the new computer.
But this is an important new thing and you must know about it.
Who knows what fodder it will be for future writings.
Oh, sorry...I am talking about our new snails.
See there below the two brown blobby things stuck to the side of the bucket?



We ordered a passle of things to make our pond a better place to be. It was a package of stuff, priced at a discount.
Included were many types of plants as well as ninja snails.
Well, that is what my kids call them anyway.
Actually, they are japanese black pond snails, but you get the ninja connection right?
Anyone need any snails?
We have just over 30 and only need about 15.
What does one do with extra snails.
Hmmmm, won't it be fun to find out?
I will let ya know what happens.
Gotta run, too too much to do today!!
