Will not be shown today.  Sorry about that.  I have lots of flower pics, I just haven't had time to work on them. 

In the meantime, here is a house that appears to be bucking for a minor role in My Big Fat Greek Wedding.



You've got your columns, your urns on top of the columns (complete with swaggy stuff embossed on the sides).  You've got your ornate fountain in the middle with the brick walkway.  And of course the columnar evergreens to frame the fountain... 

Perfect!

Now all they need are a few yard statues and some sculpted hedges.

My Things todo list is giving me trouble after the last few updates (it seems the updates were to make the whole process play nice on the iPad *sigh* I don't have an iPad and am not going to get one soon and yet I reap the "benefits" *double sigh*).  Today I had to reboot my machine which cause all sorts of extraneous repeating tasks to show up in the "today" box.  Ho-hum.

I'm seriously looking at other options because this used to work well for the most part, but seems to be getting more unstable the more they update it.  How annoying.  The other annoying thing is that repeating tasks don't sync to my ipod touch... something that wasn't an issue until my last trip to the midwest. 

I noticed they updated Omnifocus since I first tried it.  I may have another look at it.  The interface is much improved and if they can manage to work out repeating tasks nicely and sync well - I may have to switch.  I really need a well integrated system. I rely heavily on it for work and for the meetings I set up. 

I know it's tough to write this kind of software, but I didn't expect the app to get worse with updates instead of better. 

Well, I will certainly give it a while longer to see if it will start to behave. (mainly because I have no time to switch anything for the next 3 weeks or so). 

Well there are far worse things in life.

Ah the joys of trying to make your computer work for you.  They are never ending.  Now I think I'll go read.

3 In addition to the lawn statuary, they've neglected to plant a hedge for the inevitable topiary ... and I can't imagine what's keeping the moat.

Sheesh.

Rock columns, Grecian urns and fancy walk-way fountains are for double-wide trailers. What a landscaping faux pas.

6 I keep wondering if they're going to put more stuff out there.  It's fascinating in one of those "I can't stop looking" ways. 

Patti - I don't have one either - just the ipod which I love.   Don't want the iphone though.
