We are experiencing technical difficulties...we appreciate your understanding!

Well, I had my little spring break trip to Texas, it was great seeing everyone. As soon as I got back, though, all hell breaks loose. My son Max was sick while we were visiting with what he thought were allergies, but it was actually a sinus infection that needed antibiotics to cure. So I unknowingly contracted this horrible flu-like cold, and had to stay in bed about a week after I got back. Just as I thought I was getting better, the cold went IN MY EYE!!! I had a large poofy red ping-pong eyeball that took two trips to the Eye Dr. and two months of antibiotic eye-goop to cure. Thankfully, I am feeling pretty much my old self again. I guess sometimes you need things like that to make you appreciate the little things in life (like being able to see!) Then my computer caught a virus too, and we have had nothing but trouble with it since. It's very hit or miss, I never know from one day to the next if it's gonna work when I turn it on in the morning. So to those who e-mail and don't hear back from me right away, that's why! Also, for reasons unclear to me, the box with all the computer cd's is in Texas, so I am unable to use my digital camera, my Palm pilot, and other assorted and necessary goodies...so no pictures unless I feel like trying to work Gemma's...
Well, the girls are done with school for this year, Gemma did great as usual. She made the "Who's Who Among High School Students". Yay! She pretty much hates the school she was at though, so she is trying to find out about graduating early, or attending a "charter" school, whatever that means, or maybe doing Foreign Exchange. Courtney is looking at going to an Art Academy they have here, and also she excelled in Drama this year, with her portrayal of Princess Popplepea! Yay for her too!
As for me, I have made it my mission to finish every single unfinished project I have going. (A bold statement, I know!) This is even incuding sewing, cross-stitch pictures, quilts, and etc., not just the knitting ones. There's nothing like having to pack up all your stuff to make you realize you have WAY TOO MUCH STUFF! So anything in progress that I don't finish this year, I am downsizing right out of my house. I might even conduct a New Year's Eve burning ceremony. (But don't hold me to it. I talk big now cause it's only June. I might be feeling differently later on.)
Anyway, here is something fun to do: my movie.
