Update your blogrolls people!!

NEW BLOG ALERT!!

I have finally moved to Wordpress after almost a year of threats. I have also changed my blog name. It has been Expressions of Love for almost 4 years through 2 blogging platforms. Not anymore.

I am also changing my user/IM names for the first time since I have become active on-line. I used to be daniels_mommy04 or any variation of that. It paid homage to my first baby that was a still born. It is now A-Country-Mom.

My new blog is A Country Mom Can Survive. Bookmark me!!

For those who have it, my email address is the same. At least until I can get my F**** server to work. :T

Brought to you by PBS

Mark loves Curious George, and Thomas & Friends, and Elmo, and Bob the Builder, and Clifford. Not that I let him sit and watch TV all day long. I usually let him watch one or two shows, depending upon when Abby is up from her nap. (The TV room is right outside their bedroom.) Mark adores these shows, and for the most part I think they are good for him. They really are pretty educational. Sesame Street has taught Mark several new signs in sign language, how to count to 10, some of the letter of the alphabet and other good things.


But just the other day Mark did something that was horrible.

He... Oh, I can't even say it.

OK. Do it quick, like a band aid.

HE-LIKED-TELETUBBIES. Oh, the horror. Not that I think they are gay, even though they might be a little creepy. I just can't stand the whole bouncy bellied, kool-aid colored, squiggly headed, annoying show. And what is with the rabbits already?

Life is Life. Profound, huh?

Abby has been sleeping ALL THE TIME. Yesterday she went down for her morning nap at 8 AM and I woke her up at 12:30 because I was starting to get nervous. She has been takes 2, 3, even 4 naps a day which is not like her at all. She might be teething or growing but I haven't seen any evidence of either yet. She crawls way too well, walks along furniture, has taken the occasional step without knowing it, and is WAY too good at getting up stairs.

Mark is the same. He keeps getting bigger. Smarter. His art is improving. He likes to draws things now instead of just scribbling circles. He asks to paint or play with play dough.

My husband is at war with the chipmunks. There are several dozen that have nearly dug out under our entire cement patio. Not good. And they are smart little buggers.

Our laptop s out of commission. The power cord just stopped working. One minute it was charging. The next it wasn't. Literally. And the battery isn't worth crap. It lasts approx. 45 seconds for every percent of battery life. We just got the new power cord today from Ebay. But we have to make sure it isn't just a piece of crap rip off.

Having the laptop stop was not good for me. I can live working off the desktop fossil. But all my stock photos, recipes, label, EVERYTHING was on the laptop. At least I didn't loose it for good.

I am working on some recipes for salt and sugar scrubs now. I am very excited about these. They should be tons of fun. I plan to expand to Scrubs, Bath Salts, Warming Gel (for romantic uses :D), Body Butters, and other spa like goodies.
