I give up, I’m moving back

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

Due to the lack of commenting, I will no longer be blogging here. I am moving the blog back to blogspot where it seems easier, and I get more comments. If you don’t blog, you may not realize that the whole point of blogging is getting comments from the readers. I can see that you are reading, but the fact that nobody comments, ever, is very frustrating and annoying. So, I give up.

A bloggie friend of mine has a similar problem, so I will share her post with you now…

“People come up to me all the time and say “I love reading your blog” or “I check your blog everyday”. Today the counter that tracks how many times our blog has been viewed reads 10,106! That’s a lot of views!

The problem is, I’m not getting many comments or feedback from my viewers. Whats up with that??

Did you know that you can leave a comment even if you don’t have a blog…It’s true! You can leave your comment under the anonymous option and then sign your name.

Blogging isn’t a one way street, we don’t write to just be read, interaction is welcomed. Leaving a comment makes you part of it.

Quite honestly my belief is, without comments, blogging would die off. Sure you could still write and people would still read but something would be missing and feel incomplete. It’s blog comments that keep blogging alive and breathing.

I look forward to your comments about our true stories.”

I repeat, without comments, there is no point in blogging. That is all. Forwarding address to be provided at a later date.

Still No Sign Of Our $$

Thursday, February 12th, 2009

Well, here we are almost a month from the expiration of the contract on the house in Lowell, and we still have not received one dime of our earnest money back. Not even a penny. Chris has called “our” realtor and he’s said he sent in the form I faxed him, and that he will call “their” realtor and find out what’s going on. Then he says we should have the check this weekend or next week. Uh-Huh…still no money. Sigh. I guess we will just continue waiting.

Why Is This On The News?

Wednesday, February 4th, 2009

43593430

I was watching Nancy Grace last night, and there was a breaking story about George Anthony being released from one hospital, and reportedly transferring to another one to avoid the media. There was a correspondent that said he “was most likely being transferred to a hospital near home” then Nancy said “What hospital is near his home” and the correspondent answered “I’m not certain, but tomorrow night I will have an answer for you”.

Am I the only one that thinks this is sick!? This guy is a retired cop, his daughter is in jail, and his beautiful granddaughter is dead. It is suspected that his own daughter killed her, and what does he see any time he turns on the tv? – His deceased granddaughter! He and his wife have distanced themselves from their sick daughter (she’s GOT to be sick, right!? How could any sane person kill their child!?) and yet the press is still camped out on his lawn. He tries to kill himself, and now the media is really foaming at the mouth. Leave him alone! Let them grieve their granddaughter without your stupid cameras in their faces every 5 seconds! Obviously THEY didn’t kill their granddaughter, and didn’t cover it up (though I believe the brother tried). The whole thing just makes me ill. I’m tired of seeing that precious little girl on the news and know that there is nothing anyone can do to help her. Move on. Move on to another missing or exploited child that needs help. Move on to someone we can do something about!

As for Nancy Grace, focus! Focus on what you do, you talk about the case, and how certain things are going to affect the case. Casey wasn’t even mentioned last night! Give me a break! Her dad getting out of the hospital has nothing to do with the case, get over it or get a new job! Stop torturing this man!

He and his wife are going to go broke trying to help their daughter. I think that they will either be divorced, or one of them dead by the time the trial is over.

ORLANDO, Fla. – The grandfather of slain Florida toddler Caylee Anthony is back at home after he was admitted to a hospital last month over concerns he might be suicidal.

Family attorney Brad Conway tells The Orlando Sentinel that 57-year-old George Anthony was released Tuesday night. He had been admitted to Halifax Health Medical Center in Daytona Beach on Jan. 23 after he was reported missing and found in a hotel.

Authorities said he had sent despondent text messages to family members indicating he wanted to commit suicide.

Anthony’s daughter, Casey Anthony, has been charged with killing Caylee. The child wasn’t reported missing for nearly a month after she vanished.

Refreshing

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

Our Realtor called this morning. Our house showed on Saturday, and though the people aren’t buying it, they said it was a very nice house with a huge yard. The reason they gave was that it is not an open floor plan. Is it sad that I find this excuse refreshing? I’m so sick of hearing “It’s on the corner”, or “Location issues” and I was relieved when he actually had something else to say!

Yay!

Come on Spring!

“It’s Like Legos”

Dirty Legos, Who Knew?

Dirty Legos, Who Knew?

Ok, I have to share this with you all. I am a casual fan of 17 kids and counting. I think their religious beliefs, and the fact that they are dress like they were born is 1881 is s bit disturbing, but I am fascinated by the size of the family. They are now a family of 20 with no end in sight. They are trusting God with how many children they will have-fair enough.

Anyway, their oldest son, Josh got married. They aired the show last night. He “courted” this girl, and they didn’t even kiss until their wedding day “You can kiss the bride” was their very first kiss. I cannot even imagine never dating another boy, and marrying my fiance within 3 months of the proposal, but they did it.

I watched the show mainly because I wanted to see if the parents were going to have “the talk” with their 20 year old son. Since they homeschool, I’m sure that sex ed wasn’t on the menu, and I was wondering how they were going to prepare this “boy” for his wedding night. As I watched them preparing for the time of the wedding, you could tell they were like giddy school children whenever “the deed” was either mentioned or alluded to. They are both such children mentally I cannot imagine. Both have led very sheltered lives, been homschooled and uneducated about things in life.

Anyway, about 10 minutes to the wedding the Dad pulled his son  into the “Youth Church” and gave him a book. “Before The Wedding Night” by Ed Wheat. That’s it!? a stupid 300 something page book?I was really getting disappointed in his words of wisdom, and then he said “It’s like legos-Here’s a book, now you know all Mom and I know-call me if you need anything”. Can you imagine? Can you imagine calling one of your parents and asking “where to stick it”? How embarassing. I hope he didn’t call.  I personally have no recollection of either of my parents having “The Talk” with me, but I know they never said it was like legos…now I can’t look at legos in the same light. Dirty Legos…

Be Glad Your Parents Didn’t Tell You It Was Like Legos…
