But she is thinking of everyone and is thankful for all the great comments! I want to change Andrea's template...something more, bright, and new. you can make her one if you want and email me @ luckybrunette028@REMOVEyahoo.com or if you know

2003-10-27T22:35:00.000-05:00

2003-10-20T23:14:00.000-04:00

I miss andreas updates so I decided to provide sum entertainment *sorry andrea lol <3* Andrea I just want to tell you that there are so many people out there who love you and are praying for you! We love you so much! You have made a big impact on many of us, and on me, which is not to give up. You have shown me so much I love you dearly! I hope you update soon because everyone misses you!!!!!!!!

2003-10-02T14:40:00.000-04:00

Whoa...We are finally home! John's amazing Mom gave us First Class Airline tickets...woo-hoo! We both had SO much room.....AND right before the plane lands they bring out freshly-baked warm cookies. It was amazing! (Can you tell that I have never flown First Class?) It was nice to be home in four hours rather than eight days! We had a great time. John's parents are really good hosts. I

2003-09-10T23:25:00.000-04:00

Hello All! I am writing this from B.C. It took us almost EIGHT DAYS to get here! We started in Ontario...not so bad...lots of trees...once we got to Manitoba, and then Saskatchewan...not-so-fun. We saw many (many, many, many...) fields of wheat. The praries are SO flat. You can literally see for miles. After six days of driving we finally hit Alberta. Driving through the mountains was

2003-08-28T23:49:00.000-04:00

Last post before the "big trip"! Woo-hoo! We are getting really excited now. The drive will be nasty, I am sure.....but it is going to be great once we get there. I went to the hospital today just to confirm that everything is in place for the next few weeks. My breathing hasn't been great so they put me on oxygen. It helps but I look a bit "un-well"....O.K.....a lot un-well. Oh well, I

2003-08-27T04:17:00.000-04:00

Quick post....yep, I know, it is super late. Brutal. I am going to bed immediately after writing this.... Went to the Oncology Clinic yesterday to figure out what to do about my breathing-which hasn't been good. They did a CT/and X-ray of my chest. Apparently the cancer is stable but there is a "thickening" in my lungs-which I was told is normal. They put me back on the oral chemo thinking

2003-08-25T05:49:00.000-04:00

5:45am. I am wide awake. I do not want to be wide awake. Grrrrrrrr..... I am telling you. These steroids they have me on make me SO wired. I went to bed at about 1:30am and I woke up at 4:30am. Not nice. (Not to mention all the weight I have gained on them...a whopping 19lbs in a week and a half!) Oh well, I guess things could be tonnes worse. Being too tired and sleeping too much

2003-08-23T05:59:00.000-04:00

Well...We made it back, safe and sound. Montreal was amazing. It just so happens that I have the most incredible family in the whole entire world. John and I were thinking that we would head to Montreal, do a bit of visiting, relax, head home...Not in this case. It was party-fest 2003. There was a big party, two days of golfing (John was in heaven!), and LOADS of visiting. My Aunt even sent

2003-08-08T19:39:00.000-04:00

Well, I am back. John and I were really excited about the possibility of having something called, "Gamma Knife Surgery". A very non-invasive brain treatment-which has amazing outcomes. Unfortunately...I am not a candidate. Looks like I will be starting full-brain radiation next week. Oh well...I am not going to stress about something that I can't control...(I WILL be getting a fifth opinion

2003-08-06T18:06:00.000-04:00

Well, I am back...and in better spirits too. Thanks for all of your emails-you have no idea how much I love them! I find out on Friday what the "plan of action" will be. I am hoping that it is painfree, fast, and effective! Sweet little Mollie is still away on holidays and I need my comment section fixed! I think that she will be home by the end of this week. Come home Mollie! I NEED you

2003-07-31T20:46:00.000-04:00

Haven't posted in a while....I have had a few crappy weeks....found out last Tuesday that the cancer has spread to my brain (in addition to my bones and lungs). Crappy. Oh well... I just finished watching Two Weeks Notice. So cute. Totally predictable but a good "no brainer" movie. Hope all is well with everyone!

2003-07-17T10:15:00.000-04:00

I Cannot believe that I haven't posted in over two weeks. Yikes. Oh well, I am blogging now..... I haven't blogged because nothing exciting has happened. John's Mom came down for another visit (which is always fun), I am not yet back at work, I still sleep a lot, oh..and John and I are moving...which I guess you can consider exciting (or stressful depending on who you are...). Our new

2003-07-01T15:05:00.000-04:00

Yeah, I know....so much time has passed. Nothing has happened-well, nothing exciting really. And so....This or That Tuesday: 1. Lemonade or Ice Cold Beer? Lemonade...hands down.... 2. Swimming pool or beach? Beach. 3. Long weekends here & there, or a 2-week vacation? Long weekends. 4. Destination: Acapulco or Hawaii? Neither. How about Vancouver, British Columbia? 5. Destination:

2003-06-13T19:32:00.000-04:00

Whoa. A whole week. I have absolutely nothing exciting going on & I do not like to post when there is nothing going on (hmmmm...yet that has never stopped me before....). so....I'll talk about the drama on the internet. To those of you who read blogs but don't have one of your own-I will give you some "behind the scenes" information....it is insane...it really is.... I first started reading

2003-06-06T19:21:00.000-04:00

Hmmmmm....weird. I can't access any of the comments left on my last post. Mollie helped me out by emailing them to me. (How sweet is she?) Well, tomorrow I turn 30. Whoa. 30 sounds amazingly old mature. I know it does because I was on the phone with my friend's son today (who is 10 years old) I asked him how old he thought that I was turning. His response? "I know that it is pretty old

2003-06-02T11:41:00.000-04:00

So.....John's Mom left yesterday and made it home OK (plane was switched and she didn't get a movie though...) We had a great week.....and I mean REALLY great week.....I really love spending time with her. She is a riot. In addition to all of the gifts I had mentioned in my last post....she gave me...are you ready???? An all-expense paid ALASKAN CRUISE! I am so excited! I have been looking

2003-05-31T10:42:00.000-04:00

John's Mom is visiting from B.C. She gave me trouble for not posting-so I am posting. I don't really have much to say though....this one is not going to be exciting. It is Saturday. I started chemo on Wednesday. A lot of people have told me that this chemo would be easier than the others that I have done.....not-so-much.....My stomach is killing me and I am SO tired. Hopefully my body will

2003-05-25T10:59:00.000-04:00

Want to know what I find frustrating? SPAM. I hate it. I think that it may very well be the stupidest form of mass-advertising. I would never purchase anything that advertised via sending out thousands of mass emails under fake names. It is ridiculous. So.... I just spent the last 45 minutes searching the net for ways to stop getting so many garbage-emails. 45 minutes that I'll never get

2003-05-21T18:33:00.000-04:00

Went to the hospital....didn't get chemo...paid for parking & waited an hour and a half though. Apparently the paperwork wasn't completed. In Canada the majority of your healthcare is paid for ( hospital stays, surgeries, chemo, etc...) but because I am administering this chemo myself (it is oral) the Government politely suggests that I pay for it (it is $700/week). Apparently if my Oncologist

2003-05-20T11:54:00.000-04:00

Found another meme....this one is called This or That....I do not know what you, my loyal readers, will get from this...but...... 1. Large or small family? Large 2. Potato chips or pretzels?Pretzels 3. House or apartment?Small House 4. Zebras or giraffes?Zebras 5. Candles or potpourri?Candles 6. Flowers or trees?Trees 7. Right or left-handed?Right 8. Model trains or dolls/stuffed animals?Dolls/

2003-05-17T13:04:00.000-04:00

First of all poor little Kelci (sorry kid, I don't have a link to your site...if you have one...) was feeling unimportant and wanted to be mentioned in my blog. There you go Kelci.....I wish I could send people somewhere to visit you! Found a meme for Saturdays....it is called, Saturday Scruples...A Game of Moral Dilemmas! It looks pretty fun...... 1. Your minister is forced to retire because

2003-05-16T11:27:00.000-04:00

A couple of weeks ago John was getting ready to take his 1968 Ford Galaxie out of storage (AKA Our garage). It is a massive "boat-like" car. Last year there was a Ministry of Tranportation strike so he was unable to get plates (or insurance) so he drove around the neighbourhood with a 30-day permit. He enjoyed the many honks and waves he recieved. John had fixed it up with fuzzy dice, a dash

2003-05-15T17:37:00.000-04:00

Woo-hoo. I went to the hosptial on Wednesday for my chemo, but due to some paperwork problems it was cancelled. It was nice to have a few unexpected days of feeling good! I spoke to someone who I haven't spoken to in ages. Her name is Kari & I worked with her years ago. She is very funny. I think that it is neat how people come in and out of your lives as you need them...I could definitely

2003-05-13T15:02:00.000-04:00

I AM SO SPOILED!!!! I participated in Sara's "Sock Exchange" and I was paired up with one of the most beautiful, strong, and inspiring woman I know....Sandee. I send her a teeny-tiny package of plain socks. I checked the mail today and recieved a HUGE (and beautifully addressed) package from Sandee. In addition to the 3 pairs of HILARIOUS "toenail" socks (funky knee-high socks with toenail "

2003-05-12T11:54:00.000-04:00

I just got the call....it is spreading....but apparently it is spreading really slowly. They are glad that my lung collapsed. That forced them to give me CT of my chest which showed the two (very small) tumours in my lung. They are putting me on an oral chemo called Xeloda. I feel better already. I think I just do not deal well with having to wait. I feel better knowing. I am off...even

2003-05-12T02:11:00.000-04:00

Yep...had a crappy few days....nothing much to post about. I get more test results tomorrow morning. I am really nervous because when she scanned my liver (yeah...I know...I don't remember being told I was getting one of those on Friday....) it KILLED. John is holding on to his corn chip theory. Having to do chemo for a third time will make me really unhappy....and I mean really unhappy. I

2003-05-08T12:58:00.000-04:00

Nothing like a litlle cancer to increase my daily hits! LOL I have nothing really to say so I thought I'd check out this week's 3 For Thursday....the topic is about being sick hmmmm......coincidence???? BEING SICK 1. What do you consider the worst short term ailment in order of magnitude of pain: Migrane, barfy stomach, breathing problems 2. When you're sick, what treatment/medication do you

2003-05-06T18:39:00.000-04:00

The CT results are in...and unfortunately they didn't bring fantastic news. They still aren't sure why I have a collapsed lung all they know is that it has something to do with my diapragm not working properly....and they found two tumours on my lungs. (They said they were positive it wasn't a corn chip) My Oncologist kind of mentioned it really casually, "We can't seem to figure out what is

2003-05-03T10:37:00.000-04:00

No CT results yet. Well, that's not quite true, they know that I have a collapsed lung-but they don't know why or what to do about it. They said that theyll tell me on Monday. Brutal. Since I have nothing to write about I am going to try this week's Friday Five 1. Name one song you hate to admit you like. John Dever's Annie's Song...yep...I love it. 2. Name two songs that always make you

2003-05-01T19:04:00.000-04:00

Awww...thanks everyone....I loved all of my emails and e-cards. I am still not breathing all that well. I had a CT scan of my chest/abdomen today & I get the results tomorrow-Keep those fingers crossed! I have had about a zillion CT scans but the ones I find hilarious are the ones where you get a contrast dye injection. When you are in the machine you hear the technician's voice letting you

2003-04-29T19:47:00.000-04:00

My weekend was quite boring. I started having a bit of trouble breathing last week and over the weekend it got considerably worse. Not being able to breathe is extremely frustrating. I felt really run down so I basically slept all weekend. So, I wake up and go to school Yesterday and my breathing gets worse. I decided early in the day that on the way home I would go to a walk-in thinking

2003-04-26T16:36:00.000-04:00

I had nothing to write about so I thought I would do this week's Friday Five..... 1. What was the last TV show you watched? I fell asleep to King of the Hill....Wow...I can't believe I admitted that for all to see... 2. What was the last thing you complained about? Well, I just got off the phone with Kate so....I pretty much complained about anything and eveything that has bugged me in the past

2003-04-23T11:32:00.000-04:00

My friend Barb, who lives in California, is back in Ontario because her Grandmother died. Her Grandmother was an absolute riot....a total "free spirit" who did what she pleased, whenever she pleased. The family has a gazillion stories about her (many) insane adventures. She was hilarious because she had strong views and she didn't join us all in the move toward being politically correct. Her

2003-04-20T18:00:00.000-04:00

I can't believe that Easter is over. When I was diagnosed again (last June) I remember thinking to myself, "I am going to be sick from the chemo all summer, all fall, and all winter." It seemed like a lifetime-now it seems that my last chemo was a lifetime ago. Weird. We had brunch with my family...and then lunch with John's dad. We have about a tonne and a half of chocolate. When the

2003-04-18T17:28:00.000-04:00

John knows me too well. Today he asked me if I had ever seen a Honda Element. I hadn't...and when I told him that-he took me to a Honda dealer saying, "Oh my God...you are gonna LOVE it!"...yeah...well... he wasn't kidding...I do love it (If a Hummer and a Land Rover had a baby...it would look like an Element)....I need to make $30,000 in a hurry! Go...look at it...and picture it in silver....

2003-04-16T19:23:00.000-04:00

3 for Thursday (#28)...six days late...but done.... Animal, Vegetable or Mineral 1. What are your 3 favorite animals? Believe it or not I am not an "animal person"...odd considering I have a dog and two cats. My three favourite animals are my two cats (Billy and Sable), and one dog (MacGyver). 2. What are your 3 favorite veggies? Potatoes, cucumbers, and carrots. 3. What are your 3 favorite

2003-04-14T20:21:00.000-04:00

There has been nothing to post about...so I haven't posted. Life was insanely busy for about ten hours on Saturday. John and I had triple booked ourselves. It was insane. We started off at my Uncle's birthday party at a dingy little restaurant in Toronto called Rancho Relaxo....not so "relaxo". Next it was off to a stag and doe (or Jack and Jill). After a few "hello's" we left and made it

2003-04-11T19:37:00.000-04:00

This is so cute....go check out Simply Sara's blog. She has just set up a "sock exchange"...too funny. What a fun idea. Woo-hoo! Socks!

2003-04-10T04:10:00.000-04:00

The dog woke me up to let him out...so I thought that I would read Kate's blog. After reading her entry, and leaving a comment, I thought I would leave an entry on my blog too. I have been slacking lately....but it is late...so this will be short.... I have been supply teaching at the school again this week. Funny-Boss (Caroline) fired the Principal (Susan) on Monday. No two weeks (because

2003-04-06T11:04:00.000-04:00

You have all heard me mention Kate...you know...the friend teaching English in Taiwan....the hilarious one who I think should come home...yea, well, after making fun of me for being a "computer nerd", and after mocking my addiction to blogging.....Kate has joined in! Woo-hoo! Her comments, site meter, tag board, and Guest Map aren't up and running yet-but go....visit her blog...check out her

2003-04-05T14:17:00.000-05:00

Whoa. 3 Days without posting. I ended up doing some supply teaching this week...both Thursday and Friday...This whole "going back to work full-time" thing is going to be harder than I thought. I was so tired yesterday that I went to bed at 7:30pm (woke up for a half hour visit from my friend Lisa-who gave me an awesome hooray-you're-back-to-work gift at 8:00) and then went straight back to

2003-04-02T02:03:00.000-05:00

I had my "Kate" fill yesterday. Kate is a friend of mine who is teaching English in Taiwan. She is the one who I like to complain with when life is crappy. One of those friends who immediately sides with you...no questions asked....and no matter how wrong you might be. She joins in, and perhaps even "out-bitches" me, when I rant about how crappy life is. If I say that someone annoys me-she

2003-03-31T01:09:00.000-05:00

NOTE: Under "S-Siblings" I would like to add the bestest brother-in-law in the world, Greg....oops...sorry Greg...I love you....no really...I do..... Woo-Hoo! I got this from Beverly....Two posts in one day...I amaze myself.... All those visiting from Sara's site are going to be so disappointed....("Um Sara...I thought you said it 'draws you in'....not-so-much") A - Act your age? Not often B

2003-03-30T19:14:00.000-05:00

Woo-Hoo! "SimplySara" has chosen our wee-little-blog as her pick for the week! Sara is kind of a "blogging Guru"...go....visit her site....I'll wait.....Not bad, eh? She is BRILLIANT! Thanks Sara! And that Mollie....too smart. Didn't she do an awesome job an the layout? Thanks Dolly! So I had that last of our Open Houses at the school today. I hung out with this 4 year old named Aiden

2003-03-29T23:41:00.000-05:00

So...Caroline (A.K.A. The Funny Boss...See below) was not herself this morning. She looked kind of cranky and when I asked her what was wrong (like...50 times...'cause she didn't want to talk about it.....) she told me that at 3:00 in the morning she went downstairs to get a drink & her husband was on the phone-When he saw her he quickly hung up. She then picked up the phone, pressed redail (

2003-03-28T07:57:00.000-05:00

I do not think that I have ever slept as well as I have over the past two days. I have been exauhsted....BUT....I must admit my classroom is looking pretty cute. Each wall is a different colour-light yellow, light blue, light purple, and peach...where the paint meets there is black paw prints from the ceiling to the floor. The carpet is a greyish blue....and the room is MASSIVE. So cute. I

2003-03-26T00:05:00.000-05:00

Whoa...it is almost midnight and I am still awake. Being awake right now is probably not a good thing considering I start work tomorrow at 8:30. It is only an orientation & classroom set-up day but I know that I am going to be exhausted-nine months of sleeping in until 10:00 will do that to a girl. I can't sleep though. I am WAY too excited about going back to work. Kindergarten is my

2003-03-23T21:16:00.000-05:00

Yay... I got the job! Looks like I will be teaching JK/SK at Sheridan Park. I just got off the phone with the Principal, Susan. She seems really nice. I don't officially start until mid-April but I am able to start setting up my classroom right away (which may very well be the best part!) Woo-Hoo! John's Dad's surprise party went really well. We didn't get home until about 2:30am...

2003-03-21T19:22:00.000-05:00

That was odd. Maybe The Friday Five people were having a bad week. I'll try again next week. I had a job interview today for a brand new school. It is just being built so that would mean I would get to stock my classroom. Woo-hoo! Going on a major shopping spree right now would be pretty fun. I think that the interview went well. The Interviewer asked the DREADED question, "What do you

2003-03-21T19:06:00.000-05:00

Hmmmm... I found another prompt (What the hell-do they have one for every day of the week?) It is called The Friday Five Woo-Hoo! Since I am so bad at writing in my Blog (nothing cool ever happens to me) I will use this weeks prompts.... 1. If you had the chance to meet someone you've never met, from the past or present, who would it be? Online people who I have never met like Sandee &

2003-03-20T12:54:00.000-05:00

Well here it is 3 For Thursday...the "Blog Prompts" I told you about...woo-hoo! I have added on "provinces" to be able to fit in my choices..... 3 for Thursday (#25) 1. What 3 states, provinces (or countries) would you like to live in? British Columbia...mountains, the ocean, the lack of snow all the time..... Toronto, Ontario....I complain about it-but it feels "like home".... I think Rhode

2003-03-19T19:39:00.000-05:00

Ever have a super crappy day & not have the people who you want to (and some how "need" to) talk to around? Yesterday was brutal....and the two friends I like to complain with aren't around. Literally...neither are in Canada. One, Barb, is living in San Jose...the other, Kate, is in Taiwan. I mean, I have a tonne of people I could call but Kate & Barb never play "devil's advocate"....If I

2003-03-18T17:19:00.000-05:00

Woo-Hoo! Little Mollie-Dolly has a new home on the web! She is a 14 year old from Oklahoma who is so incredibly smart & funny....go...read her site....I'll wait.....

2003-03-18T10:07:00.000-05:00

Well, I have said this before...but you HAVE to visit Zander....he is too funny (and way too smart!) Not much else has gone on....I think that I may very well be the WORST blogger in the world-I never really have anything to say! :O)

2003-03-16T11:20:00.000-05:00

Sunday. Hmmmm. Not much has gone on. Greg (The Little-Brother-In-Law) slept over last night & John had to work late. We played "Scateggories"....So....we roll a big 20 sided alphabet die and it comes up with the letter "C". We then have to give an example for 12 categories-each beginning with the letter "c".....An actor (Cathy Bates), an item in the fridge (Coke), a body of water.....Greg's

2003-03-14T19:05:00.000-05:00

We did go bowling.....and it is true....the kid CAN dance!

2003-03-14T03:32:00.000-05:00

Blogspot hosts this pretty cute game, "Three For Thursday", where the give you inspiration for your Thursday's entry by giving you three questions to answer....Hmmmm...cute....visit Jennifer's to see what I mean....I guess since it is 3:00am FRIDAY morning-it just wouldn't be right.....next time..... And Hey! Sweet Mollie-Dolly (The "Brains" behind my webpage) is having a bad day...go....visit

2003-03-12T21:20:00.000-05:00

Started up Herceptin again. I love all of the Doctors & Nurses at my hospital but man do they make you wait! I got there at about 11:00 and I wasn't done until past 3:00.....it takes just under a half hour to recieve the dose. I was lucky though. One of the funniest people in the entire world, RaeAnne, was getting her dose today too. I am telling you, RaeAnne, her sister-Jackie, and her

2003-03-11T10:00:00.000-05:00

Ladies and Gentleman.......I am off to my LAST radiation! Woo-Hoo! Let the celebration begin!!!

2003-03-10T19:13:00.000-05:00

How sweet is Mollie? She actually hooked me up with a tutorial. So sweet...so very, very, sweet. So now, I present to you.....a link to Zander's site....all thanks to Mollie......WOO-HOO!

2003-03-10T11:51:00.000-05:00

So I wake up, make a cup of tea, and go read my daily "reads". At Sandee's site (sorry...I have no idea how to link) Bev leaves a comment talking about Zander....I go and visit his site (http://surreally.org/zanderkind/)...he is amazing! He is going through cancer treatments now. You know when you just get that feeling that someone is going to be OK-despite the crap that they are going

2003-03-09T21:31:00.000-05:00

Whoa. The weekend went by WAY too fast....yet I didn't do anything. Hmmmm. John and I were busy running around making plans for his Dad's surprise 50th b-day party. My father-in-law is going to love it! Yesterday night I phoned a friend that I haven't spoken to since highschool. I got her phone number off of canada411.com. It is amazing how quickly time goes by. I graduated high school

2003-03-08T12:36:00.000-05:00

How funny is Mollie? Thanks for sorting everything out! (I can't believe that you even wrote to them!...You are too sweet!) I just finished writing an email to a friend of mine in Florida. Her name is Toba and she is tied with Sandee for the "Strongest Woman in the World!". I met her last June at the hospital when I first started chemo. We are both very chatty-and share the same sense of

Thursday already! I can't believe how quickly time goes by. I had my pre-treatment evaluation (with the best Doctor in the WORLD!) today. He decided that my skin is holding up well & that we should continue until Tuesday...I kind of figured that would be the case. When you arrive at the clinic you take your health card (a photo ID card that "pays" for all your treatments & procedures) and

I know, I know, I have already posted but I just HAD to post again. We all know how amazing the internet is-it keeps people in touch, gives us valuable (yet sometimes innaccurate) information very quickly, and you can get 6 recipes for "Cranberry Nut Loaf" without leaving the comfort of your home. Can you imagine life without it? Well, recently Sandee (Sorry Sandee, I am not yet computer savvy

Wow! I just heard some AMAZING news! One of my daily reads includes a woman who is currently kicking the crap out of the "cancer dragon" (as she calls it). Sandee recently went for a re-stage, which is where they give you a whole tonne of scans to rule out the cancer being anywhere but the spot they know about. Well, the news was fantastic! I couldn't be happier. It is funny. Once you have

It's true. People really do come by and visit (although not very many sign the Guest Map/Book, or Comments, or Tag Board......) I tried to find my Blog via Yahoo and Google. I was there...along with 493,000 others. Hey Mollie? Jenn? Will John and I ever stop checking the sites counter/comments obsessively? LOL It's funny, I read John's post about the haircut (which is very "John"). Right

Hey...it's me, John. Nice one Mollie-You did a great job. Andréa has got me hooked on NeoPets....I am completely addicted to "Pyramids" and "JubJub BlackJack". LOL What an idiot...I totally feel like I am twelve years old. Hey! Speaking of being twelve I got a haircut on Thursday & I....um....decided that I should get a....mohawk. I was just going do it for a party that we went to on

2003-03-01T22:11:00.000-05:00

Lookie-Lookie....Mollie has done a FABULOUS job! Thanks Dolly! I wonder if anyone will actually come and visit. I am trying to remember how I came to be loyal fans of Mollie, Sandee, and Jenn...I have NO idea. It is funny to think that people will actually stop by to read about the ridiculous way we pass time in this house....and while we are on the topic of "this house".... Yesterday John

So little Mollie-Dolly is hooking me up with everything a new 'blogger' could want. I swear, the kid is brilliant. I tell her that I have set up a crappy little blog and the girl goes to town. She "consulted" with me via MSN to get my opinion....and voila! An impressive little blog. Amazing.

2003-03-01T19:06:00.000-05:00

YAY! I am so lucky to know the cutest, funniest, and SMARTEST forteen year old in the WHOLE world! Thanks Mollie-Dolly for fixin' up my 'blog'. You are awesome.

2003-03-01T17:56:00.000-05:00

Hey! It worked! Woo-hoo! I am not a "blog" idiot! Yay Me! Now...if I could only figure out how to get a "comment section"....Hmmmmmm....

2003-03-01T17:53:00.000-05:00

I have no idea if this is going to work....I have been reading certain "blogs" faithfully for about a year. BUT today-I was inspired to start my own. You see, I read a fourteen year old's from Oklahoma, and I figure if she can do this (and quite well I might add...) I should attempt to do my own. I really have no clue what I am doing....OK...let's see if this works....
