Random Post, Because I Still Can!
I wore my new Xanga shirt today In celebration. I'm so glad we're still here!!
I can't sleep right now. My sister is here for the week and she and her kids have our bedroom. Steven's got the couch and I'm in the boys room. 1) I have a headache. A bad one. 2) it's dadgum hot in here. Our a/c is STILL out (2 months!) and the 3 window units we have don't reach these rooms well. 3) this bed is not comfy to me. 4) the light from the living room is so bright and the tv sounds so loud in here from there. The light/sound problems could be from the headache. I don't know how my kids sleep in here.
I'm grumpy and tired.
We had the best pork chops this week. My marinade was just soy sauce, fresh garlic and green onions with a small splash of sesame oil.
I got to see my 19 year old nephew Donovan this week. What a goofball he is! He's learning how to be a tattoo artist right now.
The kids have been taking TaeKwonDo. All of them.

We had to get our AC fixed in the house for the first time about two months ago. Luckily, it just needed more freon. Can't live here in the South without it.
Pretty interesting that xanga is still here! The hear sounds bad! In our old house it got so hot and summer seemed so long. Ac makes a huge difference
@armnatmom - @celebratinglifeandmotherhood - The compressor is out in ours. We rent so we have to wait for the person we rent from to fix it. It gets really HOT here in the summer and the next couple of weeks are looking like upper 90's lower 100's so that's not good! We've been using some window units but they are not getting all the way to the bedrooms, you know???I'm so glad Xanga met it's goal. I'm excited to see what it looks like in the new version!
I can sleep on the couch with the tv blaring away and all the lights on, but if I'm in bed and can hear the tv or there's any light coming in it's impossible...how weird is that...hope you get some rest and feel better soon! Oh and if all the kids are taking taekwondo maybe you should too, just sayin
@aSeriesofFortunateEvents - Yes I'm surprised although it still sort of sounds iffy to me from their latest post... They are still asking for money.Anyways I miss the interactive-ness of xanga so much:(
Here we are, when does our blogs leave? Hope your head feels better~
Well it looks like we're still around so far on xanga
Hope your headache goes soon! Have fun with the family! Happy Summer to you!
Are you paying for the new Xanga? I am moving over to Blogger. I sent you an invite to view that one. How did you get a Xanga shirt?Sorry about the air conditioning problems! That must be miserable!
@leannenannette - I do have a blogger AND a wordpress, but I did pay for the new xanga 1 year membership. This is my blogging HOME! lol I need to see if I added you to my blogger list!
I never thought I'd be leaving Xanga. I thought about paying to stay, but you're my only friend staying here. Plus, I already paid for the Lifetime membership and didn't really feel like paying again. But I understand about this being your blogging home. That's how I feel too, which makes it so hard to leave!
@leannenannette - I will say that I did pay for premium before but I had never purchased the lifetime thing. I would be annoyed if I had, though. Probably annoyed enough not to stay but since I wasn't in that boat It's not as much of a loss to me. I've got the free versions at blogger and wordpress, and if I like the paid xanga better I may just keep this one, but I figure I'll wait it out to see.I feel like that paragraph was the most boring thing I've ever written. ha.
Haha! Not boring at all. I'm not liking blogger too much so far, but it's only been a few days of actually using it. I suppose I should give it a better chance. I'd totally understand if you'd stay here though, instead of keeping up on three different places.
I'm glad it's still here too--though I've been so busy I haven't been around much. Love that your guys are taking Tae Kwon Do--you know that. Wish y'all lived here so I could teach them for a great price Hope you had fun w/the fam.
