Since my last posting I:

-had family portraits taken twice. What the what? Both for other people's fundraisers and I found out I am not a person that buys outfits for pictures but rather digs through closets a couple hours before hoping that what I want is clean. And it usually works out just fine.

-went to a party. Planned a different party. Had a huge party 5 days after I had decided on that party. Partied.

-enjoyed a day off of school, and 2 half days off of school....so 2 days off of school? Whatever I like having my kids around.

-participated in real Canadian Thanksgiving with a real Canadian. We still all laughed at her when she called the garbage disposal the garbarator.

-braved the crowds of Utah for Cornbellies on the busiest day ever and experienced the Waffle Love truck for the first time ever and it was oh so good.

-went to Hogwarts again.

-sewed 2 Halloween costumes and I still have my own on the to do list so I better go do that.

how about this?

remember when I found my blogging purpose? ya, that was so great. but then the only video I've done since then is that one of Max on instagram. for the time being you can be on my real live blog and click right over on the right to see it. It's got the play arrow.

then I was thinking that I would do one of those fabulous blogging schedules and that would get me going. you know when people are all WHATUP WEDNESDAY and #tbt and all cool? I really like lots of those!

so I thought about the kinds of things I do a lot and the kinds of pictures I take a lot and tried to come up with catchy titles.

this one works. I do make lots of stuff. and "stuff" matches with "saturday".

I guess I can pull it together and do two kinds of stuff on Saturday. I used to be a blogger.

but then I have a bunch of pictures where I lovingly just photographed our crap. those make people feel good, right?

and then I have a problem (really) having to do with rearranging my house more frequently than a person should. this one's a bit weird but we're going with it for now.

and then I spend loads of time doing PTA stuff like making these boys sit still on a chair while I make copies of school shirt order forms. would people even want to see that? come on now.

then I could totally do segments where I point out how lucky Evanston residents are. But can I really do that every day? let's be honest. we already had multiple snow storms.

I'll think on it. probably for 4-6 months. bye. unless I get 4 million actual comments. then I'll blog again tomorrow.
