Well not only did we find a house but we moved in August.  We just recently got the last piece of furniture we ordered for this house, so we have no excuses for the boxes that are still in the dining room.  Oh well.

Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving.  Hope everyone has safe travels and gets to see someone they haven't seen sinces last year.

This summer we went on a family car trip to CA and got to see family that has never seen my 14 year old, so that was cool.

Well obviously blogging isn't my strength but I enjoy reading them. 

Let's see what's been going on - kids finished school for the year.  Summertime has been very wet - it's rained practically every day.

We are looking at moving to a new town due to the traffic that is getting busier each day - we live in a fast growing town but not fast growing roads, as well as frustration with the school system making choices that is impacting the quality of education from my children.

On my soap watching, with the changes on Soapnet schedule, I don't get to see my shows on the weekends like I used to watch, so mostly I keep up with the shows via the daily updates on the soapcentral boards and now the blogs.

So today I left work at 3:45 to get my son to a 5:15 orthodontist appt.  Talked to my hubby on the way there and said, oh we'll be home in plenty of time for the 7:00 meeting.  Well of course if you say something like that you just set yourself up for a long appt.  We actually got back to the chair on time, but by the time all the rewiring, new rubber band practice, ect... was done, it was 7:00.

Needless to say, it's been a long evening and we ended up with fast food for dinner.  We needed gas and for some weird reason just as we pull up to the Q-Trip, they are taping off the gas pumps (out of gas???), so ended up at 7-11 (sure hope it wasn't Citgo gasoline - don't want to help Chavez).

I have so much I need to be doing but instead have been reading the new blogs out there and now understand why this is so addicting!

ps Dan we need an Another World background

Yes, this should be fun.  It's always fun to be a newbie.  Dan again has created a great place to hang out and ignore the laundry and PTA work while I'm watching soap net, hgtv, tlc or discovery home.  I've been on Dan's boards since it was amcpages.com - the oldest email I have from him is Jan 1999 when I forgot my password.

As you might be aware - SN is possibly removing Another World from their schedule.  This is bad news for us fans of AW.  We lost the ability to follow our favorites in 1999 and now after a couple years of just getting the show back to the great shows of the 90s, we may have another time to go through withdrawals.  At least we have soapcentral's AW board to chat with the fans. 

For my port charles fellow fans, with the last schedule I got via email, PC will be on some.  For you that have DVRs, you can at least get a "fix".  I miss the early days of the show - where it was more about the interns, Lucy, Doc and Scotty (I mean of course Scott) but as a long time General Hospital Fan, he will always be Scotty. 

I do watch OLTL on SN most nights, which helps out with moderating the board on soapcentral but my heart belongs to AW.

I don't watch any prime time tv.  With 3 boys, we are either watching a video/dvd or some military or discovery show. 

In Real Life, I work as a programmer and volunteer with PTA and at church. 

I will find a picture to post that was taken in the last year,  when looking at our old family site, the only picture on there that would fit the size requirements was 10 years ago.
