It might take a miracle....or a NEW(hint hint)COMPUTER...

...for me to get any blog love back. Seriously, I have lost all motivation and love for blogging right now. Chad swears my computer is fixed....so why does it randomly freeze or shut down?????? Yes, I can post on this here laptop, but I can't add pictures to the post and a blog post without a picture, well, just isn't any fun. Maybe Chad will see this and we can make our contribution to stimulating the ecomony and buy a new computer.

We have been doing some "stuff" though.

Painting-boys room, bathroom, playroom (I would show you but my computer sucks)
running-training for the Ragnar...I can now run for 40 consecutive minutes! I am s l o w.
getting older-36yrs!!!
entertaining off-track kids-I am terrible at this, no mom awards here.
finishing basketball and now starting baseball and soccer season

I have also been trying to ignore both sides regarding the mess our country is in. Frankly, both sides are kind of freaking me out. We've either been "saved" by our new leadership or we are now communists. The economy has hit bottom and will quickly climb or this will last 3 more years and will never regain what was lost. Who is right? Who is wrong? I do know that Hannity says the other side is fear mongering and yet I am completely freaked out when I listen to him. I also know that Obama has committed some really lame faux pas' and can't speak without a teleprompter. How's that for a completely unsophisticated opinion on politics? :)

I LOVE it! You are so funny. I agree on the political views and feel pretty much the same. I don't want to be naive, but hate doom and gloom. I'll call it 7 years of famine.
Can't wait to see pics of the painting projects!

Way to go on the running. I hope you have the BEST time doing Ragnar. Ryan and I were supposed to do it as well, but our team fizzled at the last moment. For now, we are doing the Ogden 1/2. Maybe the Ragnar will work out for next year. Keep up the good work! I think 40 minutes is awesome. I am SO not a runner.

I'm so excited to see the pictures of the boys room. My Mom said it was awesome when she was up a couple of weeks ago. I'll be watching...

I love you Julie. I think you should start a political blog for "the rest of us" so we can all talk about it politics in ways we can understand. I love all your projects. I have been having a really lazy winter, so it's nice to hear someone is plugging away.

We gained about 3-4" here in CR...Denver got it worse though...and of course it was all melted by this afternoon!
