"Twennynine" Months Down



since my dossier was logged in at the CC@@.




RQ's projections?






It will be really interesting to see if the Olym.pics have any influence on referrals being sent. Otherwise October or November seems to be a real possibility!

Katie and Mike's wedding and the weekend in M@nteo was lots of fun. I hope to borrow and post pictures up eventually. This is the only picture I seem to have...hmmm. Oh yeah, because I didn't bring my camera to the wedding. Anyway, their wedding took place outside looking out at this lighthouse at 6 p.m. Beautiful.










At home I've been trying to "do some major sorting and pitching" (favorite quote of my former principal) and was going full steam until this morning. Kitchen and office are now done though! My mom and I picked out a lamp/fan for Ellie's room, figured out a plan of attack for the closet and went through some of the drawers of goodies that have filled up over the past 29+ months from family, friends and of course, my February '06 not-secret-anymore-pal Cari. The dolls I have collected already...good grief! I know my mom is hoping that Ellie is a dolly girl as my niece K. is hooked on her cats/dogs/horses. Time will tell... We are planning on refinishing an old cradle and if anything it will look pretty loaded up with the doll babies!

My training for the half marathon at the beginning of September has been less than stellar over the past two weeks. Hoping to step it up. Then again, the motto "just finish" has served me well the past three years!

Also, can anyone tell me how to make bullet points or where I can go to learn how to design a new blog page? Many thanks!

29 down!!
CC#AA has thrown off my predictions with their less than stellar referral record the past couple of months. But whatever the case... I'm positive you'll see Ellie's face before the end of 2008!

I just had my blog re-designed. I love it. I had to pay someone else to do it cuz I'm just not that talented. But she did a great job. There's a button at the bottom of my sidebar to take you to her blog site if you're interested.

Well Happy 29!!! I think that September will be your month... only one off from my original prediction of Aug.

Ahhhh.. another half marathon, you are my hero... kudos to you for having the discipline and endurance to even "just finish" you go girl!!

I find all my answers for bloggy goodness on the blogger for dummies website. It's pretty straight forward there.

29 - wow. That is serious.

And running a half marathon? That is a very, very good idea. I ran a full about 3 years ago & it was one of the coolest things I've ever done. One motto that I used a lot (stolen from Coach Al) was: "If you don't mind - It don't matter"...

Good luck!

I cannot believe it is 29!!! I like the Sept prediction from Kristen! I have got so much little people and American girl Bitty baby stuff that I hope Tate is a baby doll gal.

I don't know how to do bullets either... I'm just pretending, I'm a radical and don't want to conform to the masses!!! Ha! As far as the new blog design - I don't really know - I just used another one of the "standard" blogga templates, and changed my header. There are a couple of girls getting around that will do it for you (scrapbook kind of design) - see Donna's blog (waiting for Lauren Elizabeth) - I think a girl named Danielle did hers. Looks really good.

Happy 29! (hehe, I just did a typo and my finger hit the 0. and 9. at the same time - making it Happy 209!!! - I wouldn't wish that upon you though!!!)

29??? At least you have a honey to pass the time with :) Hang in there Shannon! Your turn is coming. Get as much done now as you can. It's true what they say! There really is NO time once your daughter comes home! (((HUGS!)))

'Congratulations' on surviving 29 months. Sincere hopes that you will have very few more to count!
