Maybe this is because everyone is out there living their ACTUAL lives.
No, that couldn't be it.
I know I've been doing absolutely nothing.
Scratch that. Penny was sick this week. On Wednesday, she had a runny nose and a little fever. She nursed and slept for almost the entire day, and when she wasn't doing that, she was crying this pitiful little sound reserved for only the most miserable. You know that sound, it's the one you make when you feel like absolute crap, you stick out your lower lip, and weep in the most defeated way possible. I felt kind of bad for her, but mostly I feel bad for not videotaping it.
Thursday, she didn't have a fever, but she did have a stuffy nose. She slept for a long time at every nap, which gave me the opportunity to go to a book swap.
I love the book swap, because we each bring our favorite books and swap them with each other. I get some good recommendations and read some good books. Unfortunately, this one took a really long time. I went at 11:00, when it started. No one else came until 11:30. Then we ate our potluck lunch. Then we chatted for a while. We eventually got around to swapping books, but by then a couple people had to leave, and so they just claimed the best books and left. Boo! I didn't get home for more than 2 hours! I think in the future, we'll need to make sure to swap books AS we eat, and then people can stick around and chat all they want. Meanwhile, the people who need to go or have grumpy babies can leave.
Um, can you tell I have opinions on stuff? Maybe instead of venting here (and to Kevin), I could assertively get the book swapping going at the actual party next time. I plan on it.
I canned some wheat and rice yesterday. I did it at a friend's house who lives across the water from us. This means I could see our house from hers. It's a little bit huge and white and set on a hill. It reminded me of a hotel-and-golf place I stayed at in France. Or Switzerland. Or Austria. Mommy, which country was it?
Anyway, crying baby, got to go.

Oh my gosh, I totally check my facebook/email/blog 8 times a day also. Although I've taken to spending time on craft blogs lately when I don't have updates to read.
I am also one to check blogs and FB multiple times. I'm guilty as charged.
I'm definitely obsessed with checking blogs and my email mostly, but FB once I'm playing with the internet at home. I'm also pretty good about posting to my blogs (check my profile to find Lilly's Place) regularly, so hopefully, you can get some entertainment out of them. Sometimes I also look through the "next blog" (usually the top left of each blog) and find some interesting ones that way! I'll also look for other people (their blogs) I know on friends blogs. And, I love art/craft blogs and websites of artists. Check out the "Art Room Plant" on my blog roll, for some amazing art works and she provides links to the artists blogs, websites, galleries, etc. You could get lost/entertained for a long time!
I work at a computer all day every day, so yeah, i check blogs, email, and fb all day every day. and I pretty much only get anything interesting to read or whatever once a day. maybe i should only check it once a day...nah!! ;)
You're right, people aren't updating as much. I hope blogs don't become a fading trend-- they're such a good way to keep up with friends' lives. Thanks Chelsea for diligently posting!
