I'm a Techy!
I am still making plans and working on the new/old Sam. Some updates.
So some old me...
Last week I bought two old Macs. Two PowerMac G3 Blue and White (Yosemite Model) towers. These are an awesome backup machine, FireWire and USB, Built in Ethernet, and they can run Apple OSX. I had an old 9100 Mac at my house which I used for a back up machine until it died. So I robbed some parts from that, and then I robbed parts from one of the B&W Macs and made one sweet little back up computer. It was fun taking the computers apart and swapping parts... I miss being a techy!
It was fun... three computers opened up and being worked on in my apartment. It felt good! | 
I hadn't run an OSX.1 Computer in a long time... I need to install all the latest stuff on it! |
So some new me...
Well I got my new rims, I went with the 16 inch Enkei MM2. That means the new me is driving on a smaller more conservative rim from now on. At first I thought I was gonna miss the cool 17 inch size, but I really am happy with how these rims turned out. I think the Sentra will get used to them quickly, we are both appreciating the smoother ride already. |
I took these pics quick in the morning before work. | 
Soon I will wash her up and shine the tires and take some better pics for the PLP Page. |
So some old me....
This weekend was WMU Homecoming. Old me... we reserved a section at Old Country Buffet and the Beta gang ate like kings. Then we went to the club, had a good time with the costume contest and betting on who could dance with whom. Jeff won the prize by breaking it down with the baseball cheerleader. Saturday morning was an alumni meeting, I have been involved for three years trying to get the group started. Years of pushing... and it looks like we finally did it. We have a small group now who is going to move forward on plans. I am excited. |
Nothing like Betas and friends at Old Country Buffet! | 
Then we went to Cheek to Cheek... always fun! |
Almost everyone made it out to the dance floor. | 
We left the club... where do we go... DENNY'S! |
We had a great turnout for the Alumni Meeting. | 
Soon... there will be a Latino Society of the WMU Alumni Alum Assoc. |
So some new me...
This year I took Monday off work to be in Chicago with Novali for Halloween. So right after the homecoming meeting I rolled out to Chicago. After battling some weekend traffic I made it there and when I asked Novali what she going to be she said, A Fairy! Novi was funny at Target and we found the perfect costume. Tamara had a list, and Novi pretended to read it, and would say: Halloween Costume - Check. Mustard - Check... and draw little check marks. I also noticed she is starting to sound words out... so I taught her how to spell pizza (her dinner). |
She is always all excited to see me, I love it! | 
Chili - Check, Costume - Check, Leche - Check, Cute little girl - Check. |
At home she wore the wig from her mom's costume... | 
Last time I taught her how to type her name, this weekend she spelled: table, dog, rat and chair! Not to mention Pizza the day before! |
It is funny... she loves working on my laptop. So she entertained herself on that as she learned how to spell. She is pretty good at sounding out letters. I never realized how many letters have such different sounds in English. Its hard to explain to a 4 year old why Cat and Chair both start with the same letter, or Gym and Great... but either way she is learning!
Halloween! She dressed up as a fairy and was very cute. She got some sparkly pink shoes to go with it and was ready for the big day. It was great. She had a party at her Day Care at 3pm, which she was very shy at, maybe cause I was there, she said one of the kids costumes scared her... Ha! Then we went to the Mall and that was fun. Tons of kids all dressed up, Novi was shy at first, but then she warmed up to it and really had a good time and then did not want to leave. |

She loved saying Trick or Treat. |

As always the trip home was hard. I hate having to leave. It was a good weekend. Playing with Novali is so much fun, and she goes to bed so early now that I get plenty of work done as well. It rained the entire drive home and that made it worse.
Well, hope everyone had a good halloween and have a good week!|
