Its been a long time

2010-03-16T18:15:00.002-05:00

Things have been going strong around here. First my baby has gotten a girl friend. Then she broke up with him. It broke my heart to see him so sad. But he did get over it. Now he going to his first Prom. And yes he has a date. Guess who it's with. The old girl friend. It doesn't make sense to me why he is doing this, other than I have always told to keep his promises he makes. Why of all thing does he finally listen to me and keeps this one. : ( Will ujpdate after the prom on lhow thing went.

HeHeHe I've Been Bad

2009-09-16T18:47:00.003-05:00

I've been a bad Blogger. Been busy with school starting and going back to work. well I was ready to go back to work. I enjoyed having the summer off, but I missed talking to all my friends who drive. Donnie's a junior this year. He gets to drive to school this year.

So Little Time

2009-07-13T13:23:00.003-05:00

Well time have been flying sense school has been out. Can';t believe we go back in 28 days. But I've been busy, a little of this and a lot of that, Not much of nothing. hehehe Been to 2 crops sense school was out and enjoyed being with my scrapbook friends.

School Out

2009-05-31T11:26:00.003-05:00

Well Thursday May 28, 2009 was the last day for school. Now I have off till August 10, 2009. What am I going to do all summer long? Well this weekend we're heading across the Bay with some friends to Bass Pro Shop to have dinner. Then Saturday we're heading to my brothers house, so my hubby can put in his front door. Sunday I think we are going to Dauphin Island to check out some friends that live down there. And look at the water so Donnie my son can get some worms wet. hehe Did I mention he loves to fish.

Some of the summer I think I will spend time playing this game my son has gotten me hooked on. Call Farm Town on Face Book. I think I have most of my scrapbooking friends playing also. hehe
Mine called Debbys Farm, My Son calls his Red Neck Hide Away.

Its the Time of the Year

2009-05-20T10:49:00.002-05:00

That Donnie likes to planet a garden. Well his garden is doing great this year. I went to the Bryant CTC school to pick up some plants. I got tomatoes, squash. He picked up some different kinds of peppers, corn, okra, watermelons. Well we been eating squash for about a week now. Yummy.Here are some pictures of what he has growing.

Picture Fun

2009-05-14T19:55:00.004-05:00

I was gonna go to My friend Janie's camera club the first Thursday of the month. But at last I didn't make it. This months photo contest was to be of fire. So this is what I did. i think these turned out pretty good.

Candy Fun

2009-04-29T19:52:00.003-05:00

I know not to give dogs candy, but every now in then. You just have too. Scooter loves Tootsie Rolls. I love to watch him eat them. When he eats them he jerks his head around and chews all crazy ways. Here are some pictures of him eating.

The BlackTruck

2009-04-20T18:14:00.005-05:00

There has to be some kind of bad omen. Every time my son gets near my truck on Sundays, and we are loading something on it my truck gets hurt. This Sunday was no different. After redoing my kitchen, we had so left over wood. So my hubby was going to take my truck to work and get rid of the wood. So him and my son are loading the wood on the truck. Next thing I know my son is inside telling me "I'm sorry I didn't mean to break your window." I thought is was joking until my hubby come in and says " Did your son tell you what is did to your truck"? So out side I go, sure enough there is my back window "BROKEN". So I come right on in and call the the insurance company. They tell me that the window is cheaper if I buy it, than my deductable. I'm Like WHAT?. What does that mean? It means I have to replace the window. I c,all around and almost have a heart attack They want $306.00 for a back window. I told Safelite, I think I can find a better deal. I do. But I had to go around the world to get it replaced and put in. But I got away with only paying $115.00 for the whole thing. So now I've told my son, that the Black Truck is off limits on Sundays. Don't even think about it on Sundays.

Well I've done it!!!!

2009-04-07T10:35:00.005-05:00

I finally put my son on our Car Insurance. I haven'tt done it before now because he just wasn't into driving. But now he wants to start driving to Karate class. Dad rode with him Monday night to make sure he knew how to get there. It's not what you think. The road between us and Karate Class was washed out in that big rain Storm we had last week. So we have to go around the world to get to his Karate class. But its only 6.5 mile from the house. It just seems to take a long way to get there because you have to take so many different roads to get there. I gave him direction, but I don't give good direction is what he told me. He wanted Daddy to show him the way. So tonight he goes back to Karate practice for his 1st degree brown belt test that is Thursday Night. I want sit still till he gets home. But at least he wants to drive now. Now if we could just get his car painted and ready for him to drive.

Can't Believe

2009-03-20T09:58:00.005-05:00

Easter Bunny

2009-03-13T10:13:00.003-05:00

My husband went to his Moms & Dads Sunday to work in their yard. He came home telling me that he had seen the Easter Bunny at Nana & Paws house. So when we went to the store he took me by to see the Bunnie. Sure enough there he was under Paws truck tire taking it easy. So you know I had to take some pictures.

I saw this on Lisa T., blog and thought this was a good Ideal. So I going to do my version of it.

Choose the 6th image out of your 6th picture folder from your computer and blog it. Then tag 6 more people to do the same.

This was easy cause I put all my pictures in Picasa.

This is my nephew Justine. He's eight. This was the weekend we went camping down at Dauphin Island during Mardi Gras. He was inside the camper playing with the Play Station. He would not smile at me to take his picture , so I took this one of him.

Now I'm supposed to tagged 6 people, but instead I figure 6 people could do this if they wanted to.

New Hair Do

2009-02-25T15:35:00.006-05:00

OK, I've been letting my hair grow out. And it has got to the point that I hate it. So here is what it looks like now.

Went today and got it all cut off. Had some color added. And WOW!! I Love it.
Looks better in person. I got the ideal from a lady I saw at Mardi Grss. I follwed her around so I could get a picture of her hair. hehe I'm so bad. But hay, I do love the new do.

First Mardi Gras Parade

2009-02-18T18:57:00.004-05:00

We we all went down to Dauphin Island Friday night and camp in the camp ground. I got up real early because I wanted some pictures of the sunrise. I was not disappointed. I got some beautiful pictures. and I also got some pictures of the Parade.

Happy Birthday

2009-02-05T20:50:00.005-05:00

Today is my dads Birthday. He would have been 67 today. I lost my dad 19 years ago on January 19 to a Brain Aneurysm. I miss him so much. He loved Christmas. And loved to spend time with his family. He loved to fish, and we spent many hours out in the Gulf fishing. I guess my best memory of him is at Christmas of him making candy. His favorite thing to do was cooking in the kitchen or grilling out side on the grill.

Happy Birthday Daddy.

The New Year

2009-01-06T12:14:00.005-05:00

Well after fifteen days off from work, I had to go back to work. Wasn't to bad,but my hubby did turn off the alarm clock when it went off at 4:10 am this morning. Thank the lord I was up at 3:35am tossing in bed and could not go back to sleep. Well I did get up at 4:30 am got ready for work. Man I did not miss that big yellow bus. But it was nice to get back to work.

Will we had a great start to the New Year. We went to Uncle Randy's and Aunt Holly house to bring in the New Year. Lots of food , movies, games and Friends to bring it in. Oh I forgot the fireworks. Here are some pictures.

Christmas 08

2008-12-31T08:10:00.003-05:00

Christmas is a very busy time of the year for us. But this year just wasn't the same. We usually have a party to go to just about every weekend. But this year it wasn't that way. My Aunt Levennia didn't have her Ugly Ornament Pretty Ornament party. My mom's side of the family didn't get together this year to play Dirty Santa. I so miss seeing my Moms sister. I don't get to see them to often. We did get to go to My hubby's Mom family Christmas party.

And of course our Christmas started out at Nana and Paws house Christmas Eve. Man at the food. Had a good time and enjoyed visiting with the family.

Then Christmas morning we get to see what Santa brought us. My son was surprise about his Wii Santa got him. And we have enjoyed playing it. I have become a Pro Bowler. hehehe I love his Wii.

And then we are off to have Christmas with my Brothers and Mom at my baby brothers house. Buy the time we all open up our gifts for each other, my brothers house is a mess. Paper and boxes everywhere. We had seafood this year, for our Christmas dinner. You can on;y eat so much Turkey. So after playing with the kids gifts and watching a movie we head home. We're pretty much wore out by the time we get home Christmas Day. I do enjoy it all. But then this year was a little different. But I love the memories I get Every Year.

Decorating

2008-12-08T21:45:00.003-05:00

Well Thanksgiving has gone and my favorite Holiday is Coming. CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!
Our family Tradition is to decorate Thanksgiving morning for Christmas. So while the Cinnamon rolls are baking and the Coffee is brewing. My hubby and son are getting out the Christmas decorations. So between the cooking and decorating, we enjoy going over some of our favorite decorations and ornaments. Before long we have the House ready for Christmas. The picture of the Old Looking Santa is really an old Santa. It was my very first Santa. My Mom and Dad bought this when I was two. Mom passed it on to me about 16 years ago. I love this Santa. The Santa on my mantle is some I painted years ago. And finally my Christmas tree. This is my new tree, I got last year from HL after Christmas. I usually have more ornaments than tree. But that's because I always put my tree in the corner and I only decorate the front of the tree. Who's gonna see the back. Well this year my new tree spins around and I didn't have enough ornaments. I had to go buy some more. I Love My new Tree.

Thanksgiving Day....

2008-12-01T10:58:00.002-05:00

Well Thanksgiving has come and gone, and I so thankful for my Family and Friends. We went to Holly's for our Thanksgiving dinner. And man did we have the food. As always way to much and it was all real good. We had Oven Turkey, Cajun Fried Turkey, Ham, dressing, gravy, squash Casserole, Corn casserole, black eye peas, devil eggs, potato salad, stir fried fresh veggies, green bean casserole, rolls and every kind of desert you can think of. And I'm sure I forgot somethings that where there.

And the Winner is ........................

2008-11-24T11:35:00.001-05:00

WOW!!! I won General Layout for the GCS Page Contest in Orange Beach Nov/2008. I'm so happy. I did want so to win one of those prizes they had. But I'll take this one with a big smile on my face. There where so many, and I had the honor of winning over all those very talented ladies. Congrats to all that enter. What a awesome group of ladies and friends there. I only got about 6 hours of sleep in those three amazing day, but well worth the time and fun. Can't wait till next year. hehehehehe

Veterans Day

2008-11-11T19:56:00.002-05:00

Today is Veterans Day and I have it off just like all the kids do from MCPSS. Usually I think of this day as just a day off and I get to sleep late. But Today I drove the ROTC kids down to the Veterans Parade. I was kind of mad because When I told them I would drive, I didn't know we where off this day. So I was not happy that I had to drive. But after I got down there I was glad I went. It makes you think about all the men and women who serve our country. I am proud of our Veterans that has given us so much. And most Americans don't even honor them on this day. As I sat on the bus and watched the Parade go by, it made me think of how Proud I am of all these Men and Women who given so much to us. My Pastor went to a Military Funeral this past week and had to share with us how much he was moved by the Little White Head stones. He said that standing in the middle of all those White Markers makes you think. So when you hear someone say The Land of the Free. Stop and think At what price all these Man and Women paid for our Freedom. Just my thoughts for the day. I want to say how much I Love this Country. And I am VERY PROUD OF ALL THE MEN AND WOMEN WHO SERVE OUR COUNTRY AND GAVE SO MUCH UP FOR OUR FREEDOM. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU !!!!!!!!!

Word Book

2008-11-08T11:09:00.005-05:00

Ok, I been playing with my Cricut and Design Studio software. I seen a couple of word books I like and decided to give it a try. Well here is my first word book. I thing it turn out cute. I,m not finish with it, just cut it out. I did it with George and use DS software and the new deep cut blade. I will never have to buy chipboard letters again. I don't have to worry with tring to store all those letter. I can just cut what I need, when I need. Love the new blade. Well here's a picture of what I cut. I'm no sure where I seen this book . But it is my own work. I just got the ideal from some one else. with a few changes.

VOTE!!!

2008-11-04T10:38:00.004-05:00

OK, I did the right thing and voted today. was not as bad as the news people said it would be. When I got their the lines where long. But once I got inside, it was over I was finish in about 15 min. But I went early. I think the longer you wait to go the longer the time will be.

Afternoons

2008-10-29T09:47:00.004-05:00

So, Yall all know I drive a school bus. Well this year we can't take our bus home during the day. So after I do my 12:40 pm and 1:00 pm runs, I have to take my bus back to the bus yard. I use to take it home and cool off or do some house work. But now I can't. It doesn't make much sense to get in my car and drive home only to have to turn around and go right back. So I just stay at the bus yard. What do I do for and hour? Well I read a book, or take a nap or visit with the office. But that only gets her in trouble if we talk to much. So most of the time I just take a nap. Here's a picture of me in the bus. hehehe Gotta do what you gotta do.

Weekend at the Hunting Camp

2008-10-26T17:10:00.005-05:00

Will The 19th of October was the my Husband Hunting Camp Bar B Q. And sense he was the President this year we went up on Friday night. But I think that was so Donnie and him could go bow hunting. Here's a picture of Donnie in the tree. I came across the door at the Hunting camp and thought it was neat. My dad worked for the Malbis Bread Co. when I was a little girl, and then to come across this door just brought back so many memories. Like he would take us there to get fresh bread. I mean fresh from the oven too. I can still taste and smell the bread. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

Here's on of him shooting his shoot gun. We had a good time, I was tried after all the work,fun and clean up. Can't wait till next year. hehehe

My New Blog Helper

2008-10-15T09:15:00.003-05:00

This is my new Blog Helper. hehehe This is Scooter's new thing. He thinks every time I get on the Computer he has to get up here with me. Its kind of hard until he sits downs. But the whole time I'm on the Computer this is where is sits. I don't know where he got this from.

Up Date

2008-10-10T10:07:00.002-05:00

Well the rash has gone by, by.. So I guess that means I have to keep my job. But I'm sure glad that it's gone. Can y'all believe it. I've done two blogs in one day. I think that's a record for me. hehehe.

New Look

2008-10-10T10:03:00.001-05:00

I've been playing with my Blog. Man it is sure hard to bling this thing up. But I think I like this one. At least for the time being. hehehe

The Rash

2008-10-02T19:43:00.003-05:00

OK Maybe longer than two months. It started out just ofter school started. I got the rash which I thought it was just a heat rash. So I've been doctoring it myself. It would go away, then I would get hot again and it would come back. I been battling this sense school started. Well today was the last time. I went to the doctor to see what was going on. Well he was just as stump as me. Gave me a Steroid shot and some Steroid cream for it. Told me to use for a week and come back so he could recheck. At least at this point tonight its not itching. He seems to think its just a Allergy reaction to something I got into. But what is the big question? I have no ideal or clue. So for now I'm just playing the waiting game.

Picture of Mesh Cricut

2008-09-15T09:50:00.002-05:00

Ok here's the Catch of the Day I cut out. I can't wait to use it in a layout.

Waiting to See

2008-08-28T09:12:00.003-05:00

Well, we're waiting to see what Gustav is going to do.

This just is not what I wanted to deal with on Labor Day Weekend. I just wanted to have a nice weekend at the hunting camp taking it easy. I even took Friday off so me and hubby could get ready to go. But now we are staying home to get ready for Gustav. I hate this time of year because of the hurricane season. But I do love liven in the south. This just the bad side of living here.

Long Hot Days

2008-08-22T10:03:00.004-05:00

Well, Ive been just hanging around the house because its just to darn hot to do anything else. Started back to work August 11th. Loved the first week of school. The weather was wet, but the days where at least comfortable. My High School kids are not happy that they cut out all the neighbor hoods. I am, cause I done have to beg someone to let me back out on the roads. Can't wait for fall to get here.

Here a picture I took the other day when I was going across the railroads tracks. Just thought this was pretty.

That's one of the good things about driving the bus early in the mornings. You get to see some beautiful things along the way. Hope every one has a great Day.

July 4th

2008-07-14T06:28:00.005-05:00

Well we spent the 4 in Orange Beach or should I say Flo-Bama. But we had a great time. My brother has a camper that he took down to a KOA Camp ground the week before. It was a really nice place. Had pool and a pier to fish from. We spent the 4th on a sand bar in the middle of Fro-Bama line. Just parked the boat and had a nice time pinic and got to swim. Had to watch for jellyfish, but not to many. My son did his favorite thing. Fish. Well should I say Carb the whole time we where there. Here's a picture of a blue crab he caught.

We even cooked the crabs on the grill. All I can say is Yummie. The was a relaxing and enjoying 4th of July. We even took Scooter with us. But he was the smart one. He stayed in the camper in the AC. While we all sat on the beach. You gotta love a AC Dog.

SIX Days........................

2008-07-01T20:59:00.002-05:00

Well it started out last Wednesday around 11:30 am. My hubby calls me from work and said " I think I hurt my Back".. I say what do you mean you hurt your back? He say he headed home. So I wait around to hear from him and he show ups walking like a crab. So I get him to my son bed cause we have a water bed. And he need something hard to lie down on. I put a heating pad under him give him a pain pill from the last time he hurt his back. I ask he I needed to call the doc, and of course he said no. So Thursday morning he still in pain so I call the doc. They send in a RX for till we can get a appointment. Tuesday at 2:45 pm. so six days later and he not in pain he goes to see the doc who said why did you come in? Of course my dear hubby said that he needed a note from the doc so he could go back to work, because his boss has to have one to let him come back. I love my hubby, but six days of him around the house has just about been my undoing. Thank You very much he goes back to work Wednesday. Then where off to the Gulf for 3 1/2 days of fun. Hope he doesn't hurt that back again. Hope every one has a GREAT 4Th of JULY!!!!!!!!!!

My son the Gardener. Well my ds love to garden. He talked me and daddy into letting him dig up ;my back yard and plant a garden. I thought it was going to be a bad thing. Because most of the time he starts something and then gets board with it and it just sits there waiting for me and daddy to do something with it. But he loves this garden. I caught him in it the other day working and had to get the camera. Ever day he goes out and checks for something ready to pick. We have gotten tow squash, some cherry tomatoes out of it so far.

Spring Break

2008-04-20T20:42:00.005-05:00

My hubby even got off for Spring Break. So we went to the Hunting Camp for 2 1/2 day. The first day we fish around the lake there and I eve went turkey hunting with them. Wee I didn't hunt with them I just sat in the shooting house and read a book, took some awesome pictures of them. Really enjoyed myself.

I didn't think I would have fun but I did I even enjoyed fishing. I got the first fish and Donnie was not happy. But he soon beat me. The fish just was not biting. But I did get some great shoots of them on the lake.

Best Spring Break in a lot of years.
Ok I'm having problems putting the pictures in, so will have to try later

End of March

2008-03-28T21:08:00.004-05:00

I'm so glad to be at then end of March. My family and I have had a very busy Month. Where do I start. We finish the out side of our house. Thanks to Hurricane Katrine in 05. You know the insurance people have a game they like to play, you turn in one price and they give you what they want to give you. The next time I hiring all there people who do the cheap work for the money they gave us. Because I still paying for the repairs.

Just when we thought we would have a little extra money to redo our bathroom my Frigidaire went out. So now I have no money to do the bathroom. Dang why is it, went you finally get ahead something breaks. Oh well, I do love my new fridge. We call it the black monster. Because after we got it home we had to take the doors off the house to bring it in. Move a cabinet and I lost my dishwasher( didn't work anyway). I never had a new one so this one is twice the size. has a ice maker and water on the door. I'm in love.

Scrap Weekend

2008-03-03T11:14:00.003-05:00

Me, Judy, Wendi, Kelly, Kim and Janie all went to Gulf Shores and rented a Condo a three day weekend. All we wanted to do was scrapbook. We started out Friday morning at 8:30 am. Poor Kelly was sick but was going to try to make it anyway. So after breakfast we headed towards to enter state. But a few miles down the road we had to pull over because Kelly was sick. So after a short stop started again only to have to pull off the highway so Kelly could get sick again. Bless her soul. She so needed this getaway. But needless to say Kim had to take her home. So we finally get on our way. We eat to our condo to realize that we had four flight of stairs to drag all our scrapbook stuff up. By the time we had everything up we where so tired to scrape. So by the time we got everything unloaded it was time for lunch. So off we go to eat and shop at GiGi's. Man did she have alto of new stuff. You know we all had to buy. hehehehehe. Then it was time to scrap. We only made ti till around 11:30 pm. After dragging everybody stuff up those stairs we where pretty much wore out. So we decided to head to bed.

Well the next day was a lot better for scrapbooking. Most of us was up and about by 7:00 am. We all decided to scrap till around 3 and then head to the Out Lets to Shop. Then go to LuLu's to eat. WE got to Condo around 9:00 pm and the game was on. We scarp till 2:30 in the morning. Got up Sunday to scrap and then it was time for all of us to head home. What a great time we all had. Can't wait to do this again. But I think next time we will make sure we have a Condo with a easier way to get out stuff up to our room. hehehe

First of Oct.

2007-10-01T09:56:00.002-05:00

Well its October 1. Well this weekend was busy. Me and Mom went shopping for GCS, picked up our gifts for our table mates. Then my Aunt form Atlanta called said she had some furniture she wanted to give me. Ht dog. I really need a new lining room suite. Boy am I glad she called. Love the new stuff. Their was five(5) homes that got new furniture this Saturday. Boy but tyring to move all that furniture will wear you out. Of Course hubby and son where gone to the hunting camp to put in work days. That's a whole other can of worms to talk about. So I move the furniture in and out, with a little help from the man next door and my Mom. Mom can't really help because of her arm, so I move most of it. But it sure looks good in my living room.

My First

2007-09-04T18:44:00.000-05:00

I submitted my first layout to BasicGrey and they accepted me. I am so excided. Here my layout. Thank you Kelly for telling I needed to submitt it.

Back To School

2007-08-13T20:51:00.000-05:00

Well the big day is here. Its time to get back on the big yellow Cheese Wagon. It is way to hot to ride in one of these, much less have to drive one. But school is under way. The first day was real bad. I didn't get home till 5:00 pm. Friday was better. It rain and cooled things off some. Monday was just too dang hot. But we only have four more days till the weekend. I wouldn't really mine if we have air condition on the bus. But thats never going to happen. I was so excided, about school starting that I got up around 3:30 a.m. and couldn't go back to sleep. My baby isn't a baby any more. He started High School this year. He seems to like it. I get to see him everyday, because I drive for the Bryant Tec. School. He likes to come out and say hi, then he just smiles and goes back to class. I guess that makes him happy. It sure makes my heart happy to see that he still likes to have something to do with me. Most teenagers run the other way if mom comes around. Not mine. He like it when I show up for things. For now anyway.

Alabama Deep Sea Fishing Rodeo

2007-07-28T20:00:00.000-05:00

My Hubby enter the Fishing Rodeo this year with my brother. He got a 3.5 lb Flounder, that he enter in the Fishing Rodeo. The winning flounder was 6.86 lbs. But ours was good eating. We all had a a blast. Haven't been to the island in years to fish. We went to Dauphin Island, Thursday for the Liar's Contest that night. If you don't know what that is, its a contest for whoever wants to get up in front of everyone and tell the biggest fish tall. And you know how fisherman are, their stories are always the best. Friday morning the cannon goes of at 5 in the morning. I was still sleeping when my hubby and brother left to fish. Me and my other brother Dennis sat around camp with the boys and went to the Pier to fish.

I don't know who like to fish more. My son Donnie and my nephew Justin. They didn't catch a thing but they did have a good time.

Saturday my hubby and brother took the boys fishing on the boat. They brought home some King, White Trout, and some other fish, but I don't remember what kind it was.

Sunday we all sent to Sand Island to swim and have a picnic. What a lovely day.

I did go shopping with a friend of mine. We went across the Bay to Gigi's Scrapbook store in Foley. Man does she has great stuff. Then we went to Michael's and Hobby Lobby. Know that I have no money I need to scrape some layouts. But She had a blast. Caroline just got started into scrapbooking, so she needs lots of stuff.

Went to Gulf Shore, AL. for a week. My job gave us a week at the Island West Condos. Of course it rained for the first two days. But I did go and shop a little. Their was 40 of us from work that went. We had a meeting every day around five, more or less to talk about where we would eat. But other than that we could do what ever we wanted. I so needed this. It was just me and my friends from work. No Husband, no kids. We ate at the following places: Sea and Suds, LuLu's, Lesters and Desotoas. They all had great food. If your ever at Gulf Shore you need to stop at all to try them out.

My First Blog....

2007-03-29T22:11:00.000-05:00

Welcome to my blog. I hope you like reading my blog. Thursday are always busy days. I make my son ride the bus home so I don't have to go to Nana's house to pick him up. Monday and Thursday are always busy day. I usually get home around 4:00 so I can get dinner cooked before we have to leave for Karate. I finally talked my hubby into taking my son on Thursday nights to Karate so I can have some me time. Usually I get on the computer and read my Email and write some of my friends. Got to figure out how this blog thing works. Need to add some pictures and things. But I will sooner or later. HaHa
