I have several emails in my inbox that I have yet to respond to. Between a messy house, two kids and throwing up, I find I don’t have much time to sit and write back to people! Do I write a half-@ss response or wait until I actually have the time and let them think I am ignoring them in the meantime? What are the netiquette rules in my case?

Google Maps is creepy
21 AprSo, I was looking up an address on Google maps, and noticed there was a ‘street view’. Holy crap, they have pictures of the street and houses as if you are driving down the middle of the street. I googled my dad’s address, and sure as sh*t, there is his house. The garage door was open and you can see inside! There are cars parked and you can see license plates!! This seems like a huge invasion of privacy to me. What do you think?
Holy crap, they changed the dashboard.
4 AprI just logged in here at wordpress and see they have made some changes without my approval. Here I thought I was going to take a minute to check things out, and now it will take forever to see what is going on here! (Sorry, non-wordpress readers, you probably have NO idea what I’m talking about!)

These are a few of my favorite posts…
11 FebMindy tagged me with the Favorite Posts Meme which offers a second chance to older, perhaps forgotten posts.
Rules: Go back through your archives and post the links to your five favorite blog posts that you’ve written.
-
Link one must be about family
-
Link two must be about friends
-
Link three must be about yourself
-
Link four must be about something you love
-
Link five can be about anything you choose
Post your five links and then tag five other people. At least two of the people you tag must be newer acquaintances so that you get to know each other better.
Ok, so:
-
Link one is the one about my grandma
-
Link two is about my childhood friends and my mommy friends.
-
Link three is my interview with Amy
-
Link four is what I love about summer
-
Link five is the time that Katie got into Grandma’s lipstick
And now who to tag…….who to tag?

In the meantime, let me know what weird phrase has sent people over to your site?
My shipoo loves cheese?

- watch my wife take a shower
- he said i was hot
- my original short story i am 13 and hate
- my shipoo loves cheese
- sick and tired of life
Newsletters…
2 MarI found this awesome site called Letter Pop that you can create and email newsletters using your flickr photos (or photos from your computer)! It’s free and totally easy, and you don’t even have to download any software.
Pay-Perfume?
1 FebI’ve been an aunt since I was 21. And during that time, I’ve enjoyed hearing the little things the kids say that strike me off guard or are just plain hilarious.
Examples:
- Mason while in the bathroom stall at the park: ‘Don’t leave me, I’m just a kid.’
- MacKenzie: “That movie is on Pay-Per-Fume” (instead of Pay-Per-View)
I always think, I should write that down. I know my mom has a little book she used to write in with the silly things we said as kids.
I just found this blog where a mom is doing just that - I cracked up at her kids musings.
I can’t wait for Miss K to start talking more, putting together sentences and coming up with some original thoughts of her own. In the meantime, I will continue to enjoy her copying the words I say and watching her grow each day. What a blessing it is to be a mom!
Flickr and other fun things to do with your photos…
8 Nov
I had heard about Flickr, but didn’t know much about it. Then one day when I was perusing a children’s photography blog, I finally got the inspiration to check things out for myself. (more…)
Everyone else is doing it!
2 NovOk, so maybe not everybody is doing it. But I am now. Blogging, that is. I love to write and since I send email updates out anyway chronicling my life, this kills two birds with one stone.
