New Blog

I think I figured out why Grandma couldn’t post a comment. The software I use for this thing has been on the fritz for a while and wouldn’t accept comments. After a while, it wouldn’t accept anything.

My wonderful host, site5.com, changed something on their server that pretty much broke everything, so that’s wonderful. Instead of fixing it, they blamed it on me, yada yada yada. So I decided to ditch Typo and move it to WordPress. It’s much easier to manage that way. I would guess that not a single one of you knows what I’m talking about in the slightest. That’s OK.

There are still a few things that are pretty screwy. The pictures over on the right don’t look very good. The comments didn’t come through from the old site. I still have them and may put them in. So you’ll notice things here and there, but everything should be OK for the most part. And I’m too tired to worry about it right now. It’s 12:27AM and I need to help Grandma in a few hours.

Swimming Lessons

Lucy started swimming lessons last week. It did my heart good to see someone put the fear in her like that. I saw a look on her face that I’ve never seen before — priceless. I’ve even got pictures to prove it. Of course now she thinks she’s invincible so she’s fearless: jumping off the diving board, almost hitting her head and back each time, thinking she can swim across the pool, etc. Classic Lucy.

There are a few pictures here. A few from swimming, a few from her day as a princess on Sunday (though I don’t know how that’s different than any other day), and a few of the girls doing Pilates. Fun stuff.

Grandma, click on the comments button, then on “Leave your own response,” and then leave your comment for the world to see!

Finally Home

We finally made it home last night. It was a long haul. Everyone seemed to have fun, though Lucy kept asking to come home. Today was a bit hard to get back into the routine, especially since I’m out of money and am pretty tired. It was pretty good to be back at work today. It’s supposed to be 110 all week, which isn’t too exciting.

I uploaded (or am uploading) a bunch of pictures. I use iPhoto and some plugin to do it, so hopefully it will do it right and create the set and all. As before:
