Making a virtual mark

So this blogging this is pretty fun. I get to put my opinion out there and even if it goes unread I have made my mark. This got me thinking about other people and some other blogs I have been to...

Blogs of Friends & Family:
http://www.nellfamily.com/joseph/blog/ - This is my hubbies... a bit outdated... That is what I fear will happen to this one.

http://www.mindwheat.com/ - I guess you would call this a group blog?

http://blog.arlomidgett.com/ - This blog is great... lots of information and fun to read.

http://half-century.blogspot.com/ - This is where I got my idea to blog... this is a friends blog who is writing a book!

https://uascentral.uas.alaska.edu/online/portfolio/JNMMM?term=Spring-2007&behavior=UAS&session=2273655& - Fun and keeping busy.

https://uascentral.uas.alaska.edu/online/portfolio/JNCRN1/MyJourney?term=Spring-2007&behavior=UAS&session=2273655& - A blog can be a way to get though hard times.

http://uashome.alaska.edu/~jncjb/blog/ - Can never have too many blogs!!!

Now I think what makea a great blog is that it is readable. It could have links to other sites, pitcures... and stories that make you laugh... or cry.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blog - Wikipedia has a lot to say on this topic.

However, there are some out there that do nothing but offend, or anger... but I guess this is the way some make there mark... to bad it is black.

Will it be years till my weekends are restful?

This last weekend just about killed me... Let's see here was the proposed schedule:

Schedule for Saturday March 10th
9-10 - Ballet
10-noon - Church activity
2-3 - Police Station tour
3:45 - Picked up at house by Heather
4-5 - Dinner with Heather & Hannah
5-6:30 - @ bowling alley for a girl scout flag ceremony
6:30-7ish - Desert with Hannah & Heather
7:30-??? - Beauty & the Beast

Schedule for Sunday March 11th
9-noon - Church
1-3 - Clean house
3 - Bed time - hang with kids

We did every thing but the Saturday Church activity. It was a busy weekend and I am tired. Plus with the Daylight Savings we all lost an hour. So I have come to realize it will be quite some time until I get a weekend to rest… not do anything.

But after looking at the pictures…I guess I can wait.

Am I really that OLD?

I am now the mother of a 6 year old. AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

We had Hannah's birthday party at Our Back Yard this year on Saturday, March 3rd. She invited kids from her class and from Daisy Scouts. This years theme was Princess, and Emily made a Barbie cake (I was going to put that Em and I made the cake... but we know that wasn't true). I did however make Hannah's dress... and have now been told that I need to start making her dresses that are "in Fashion."

About 18 or so kids showed up and there was pizza and cupcakes. It was a ton of fun... even if mom didn't get to sit down at all... Hannah received a great assortment of gifts, from tickets to Beauty & the Beast to cheerleading barbies. Even Hannah and JT got along well at the party... and lets hope that lasts!!! Everything went well and now she wants to start planning her next birthday ("at Disneyland please mom") BAH.

Snow...snow...wait...more snow

So when last I posted there was a blizzard warning. Well 4 days and 22 inches later here we are... The picture is of our house today... just a bit of snow. The whole city closed down, city, state, UAS, and federal... and guess what... yup I have to work.

Oh well. On a side note, I have to go south for medical issues again... I will write more on that later. I will also add a post about Hannah's Birthday this weekend... it was FUN!!

Scary Lion

It is a cold and snowy day... hmmm sounds like a good start to a cheap thriller book. Woke up this morning and the weather man said we were in a blizzard warning. WONDERFUL! We could get 18-24 inches by tomorrow... I know I have said it in the past but I have decided that I don't like winter as much as I used too.

I remember as a kid in school making a scary lion on March 1st for the whole "In like a lion out like a lamb" thing. Today was a scary lion of a day.

At lunch I couldn't see across the street as the wind and snow we so bad.

We will see what tomorrow brings.
