Frustrated with the bloggy blog

Photo: Smiling for Daddy!

I don't know why I have such trouble sometimes trying to put in a new slideshow (inviting blogger to talk to my picasa WebAlbum). dang it. So I'm just going to insert the photos here. There aren't that many anyway. Today has been a good day except for the past 30 minutes-refer to previous sentence. :-) We hosted playgroup which was fun. I had the chance to talk a little about being a mama for a friend's documentary. I'm excited to see that when it’s completed. Also in that realm...Marcie's baby is here! Zaia Jasmine Connell is earlier than expected so all I could say on the phone is "WHAT?! Baby girl two days ago...What?!" Once I got over that I found out that she and mama are healthy and doing well. She weighed in at 5 lbs and 13 oz. despite being 6 weeks early. We'll be keeping the Connells in our thoughts and I suppose I better get a tasty dinner whipped up for when they come home next week. Oh what a happy day! It seems like something interesting happened today...Oh! Just remembered that Oprah is making over housewives today and gonna tell the world the 10 must have items one needs in the closet. I need this information! I would be surprised if I have any of these things since every time I look in my closet I say "ugh". It has been an exercise in creativity, getting dressed, for the past little while. So I'm tuned in now-don't worry. Now tonight after hooking up with Grandma, Papa Jerry, and Dylan for a little dinner, we came home and were enjoying pears when I heard a tap tap at the slider. The darn coonz were there, a pair of 'em, pulling the rubber gasket-thing off of the screen door the little buggers (no, that's not what I would like to call them!) We need that thing to keep the bugs out in the summertime, you thugs! Man, they rile me up. Okay update: I actually have a few of the items on the list-whew! I did get some good ideas on how to wear some things. How fun. Speaking of politicians Oprah supports, Barack Obama, seems to be taking this primary season by storm. Yea! If you have not been tuning in, see the post from a few weekends ago when Benjamin caucused for Barack. Oh yea, we have to take some of the credit for supporting his vision. Okay...it's photo time.
