MY NEW ANONYMOUS BLOG

I think I am going to start an anonymous blog. That way I can write about cooler fun stuff and don't have to worry about not so anonymous people reading it and going to wedding showers or baby showers or football games and saying crap about me and my life and the lives of the people that are on my blogroll and how we are all connected and why we are and who we are and who we are now and who we were 10 years ago... Since you obviously are so bored, I have an idea of something you can do, ok? Go outside and dig holes in your yard with a metal kitchen spoon. Dig as many as you can. That should keep you busy and unbored for awhile.

Enough wasted energy on that...

I went to the Armory and dropped off a bunch of stuff for the hurricane victims. There were a lot of people there getting stuff and some others dropping stuff off. Very sad, but good that people are so willing to help and give their support. Adam has told that the conditions there in N.O. are worse than they were when he was in Baghdad. He said there were thousands of dead bodies floating in the flood waters downtown and the smell is horrid. Probably unforgettable. Last I heard he was escorting people to get items from their homes, but that was Wednesday, I think. He was downtown sleeping on the sidewalk for the first couple of days. It really says a lot about him to volunteer to go down there and help in this situation, especially just returning from a 2 year stay in Iraq. I am very proud of you.

I don't know what Maddax and I are going to do over the weekend. I will probably paint some...I have four sold and only one of them finished. So that is a definite project to work on. We went to The Arts Center, last week?, to a pottery thing. It was cool. Maddax loved the ducks that were outside of The Arts Center at the little pond. He also loved the fountains. We may stroll dtown and play on the jungle gym by the riverfront and have pizza. (?) We could go swimming at a friends pool. Don't know. I just discovered this towns "family calendar," which is pretty cool. It lists most things family oriented that are going on during that month. This is very helpful b/c being here with just the two of us and not knowing any other other single people with kids makes it hard to find out where to do stuff. Larissa and Marina have moved here though. That is exciting. We will have to hang out. I think they are in a little bit of a transition right now.

Actually, I think I was suppose to drive up to see my dad this weekend and I just remembered. Damn, I get so tired of driving. He has been traveling working since July 1 and is leaving again for 8 weeks after this weekend. He is talking of moving out of the state soon. I don't see why not. If I traveled all the time and then spent a couple of weeks at home, I would not plant myself in Arkansas. He is thinking NE Tenn. ? Not sure why TN, or he says closer to here or maybe closer to Dallas. Texarkana??? Or Florida?? Then in two years move to Switzerland. He has big ideas, which is a good thing. I am the same way. Mostly I just can't be satisfied and refuse to settle and hear no....but that is a whole other story. I like to get what I want, but who doesn't? I just refuse to give up most of the time which is good and bad, depending on the situation. Determined.

Well, enough of my rambling for the day. Great weekend to ya.
