Looks like the background wasn't working, which made the text unreadable...I need a makeover anyway. The problem is that I am so picky..so you will see slow changes to the look and the features.

No, not with drugs...or anything exciting--just the blog format. I've decided to write a book; not for public purchase or anything like that, but looking back through the last year and a half I've realized this is really the story about my family. I know that I always love hearing/reading stories about me or to me and I'm sure that my kids will love to read about their lives growing up. I have been searching for a program that will just take my blog and publish it, and while I have found a few, there are always glitches. Some are with the price, some are with the program working properly, etc. I may need to change the format in which I create this blog by maybe creating in something else first and then publishing that to the internet. We'll see...I'll let you know. In the meantime, excuse my inconsistent format--although by now that shouldn't really surprise you.

I haven't messed around with the layout of my blog lately, but when I was reading my Google Reader blogs I noticed a post about a new Blogger function called Follower. I checked out the new features and added them on the right. Notice you can now subscribe easily as well as profess yourself as one of my followers. I expect both of you to add yourselves...

I'm so in trouble right now. I know he's probably annoyed. Actually, he's not. He just says, "whatever" and does his thing. He's in bed right now--he waited my "just a few more minutes" and then gave up and went to bed without me. I can't stop looking at my pretty new blog. I can't help it! Oop--there's a snore. That didn't take long.

I've loved rainbows since I was a kid. And when I say love, I should probably say obsession. I only drew rainbows (couldn't draw anything else), had a huge rainbow mural on my wall, picked out Peanuts curtains to go with it because they had rainbows, I even attempted to get a rainbow tattoo. (That backfired when I got a speeding ticket on the way there...no money left for a tattoo! I'm thanking my lucky lead foot now).

It's too bad this isn't a "country tree" instead of "city tree" seeing as...I'm nowhere near the city now. That's ok, it works just as well.

Best thing of today: I actually read a book. I didn't even have to force myself. I just sat down and read. I really miss books...(I have a weird affinity for smelling books. Have you ever smelled a new book? I love it. Not as much as I love the smell of new shoes, but really close.) I just don't seem to have the time or the stamina to keep my eyes open to read a book. So now, I missed the morning news and have no idea what's going on in the world. Um, ok, by news I mean The Today Show. It's been boring me lately anyway.
