Status Bars JAVASCRIPT CODES

For those wanting the project status bars we see in many blogs these days, I've copied and pasted the codes and directions for adding them to your blog or website in a text file located at:

http://www.geocities.com/rexenne/statusbarcodes.zip

I do not claim them as my own, I only am providing the code because the website it originated from has been down for some time now. Please save the zip file to your machine, otherwise if a high amount of my bandwidth is consumed, I will have to remove the file. It is virus free and contains one file in .txt .

I cannot help you with java code problems, while I am HTML and Java savey I do not know how to fix problems that may arrise with javascript. The email to contact is in the text file. Please download the text file and save it to your machine-otherwise I may have to take it down if a lot of bandwidth is consumed.

Until next time...

Silkworm Eggs, ready for cold storage

Silkworm Eggs, ready for cold storage
Originally uploaded by rexenne.

Here are my first ever eggs, produced by the adult moths that I raised from eggs, that are going into cold storage till spring. The temp has to stay above freezing, but below 40 degrees F. I have a digital thermometer in the box I have them so that I can keep an eye on the temp. So far the temp fluxuates only a few degrees and stays between 38 and 40 on the top shelf.

Silkworms AKA Sericulture

I've gotten into Sericulture...raising silkworks for their silk. Lots of pictures and info can be found on my flickr feed (see the links on the side bar). It's a lot of work, but worth it in the end. Next year I plan on raising some native North American moths that spin silk that is spinnable.

Speaking of spinnable...I've got myself a spinning wheel and I have been spinning too! Guess what? Photos are on my flicker feed. LOL

Until next time...

Haven't posted in a while...

I've been posting more entries into my yahoo 360 than here, it's just more convinent(sp?) and easier to get to. Although the downfall there is you can only post one photo per entry, which is a drag.

I've starting knitting, mostly socks. They are fun to make!

I've recently signed up to make socks for soldiers (see link in side menu). Here is an advertisement for them (if you decide to sign up, let them know C4G sent you):

SFS is looking for 100,000 sock knitters

Join our group and see how you can assist those serving our country in the Middle East. Our brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, boyfriends, girlfriends, etc are putting their lives on the line, and whether you agree with the reasons for their sacrifice or not, it is our moral duty to aid and comfort them in every manner we can.
Come visit our website and learn how you can knit socks for our soldiers today. We have information, patterns, yarn suggestions, discounts and other pertinent information.
If you cannot knit socks, there are many other ways you can help. Pass out flyers to local yarn shops; promote us to local newspapers, radio stations, TV stations, and charity groups. In addition to knitters, we need funds to supply yarn and needles, and to ship the socks to the Middle East.
We can also use other products to fill the new socks, such as toiletries, face wipes, chap stick, lotion, disposable razors, nail clippers, deodorant, and other soldier necessities.

I've also signed up for sock wars. It's almost like an RPG game, only you knit socks. Click the Sock Wars link in the side menu to go to that blog and read more, even sign up. You knit a pair of socks per a pattern given to you by the host and send try to send them to the person you are assigned to, first. If you get a completed pair of socks before you are done with yours, then you are considered "Hit" and must send your uncompleted pair of socks and pattern to the person who hit you. The person who "survives" unscathed is the winner and recieves something special. Sound fun? Check it out!

Until next time...
