Didn't make it....

Well, I started strong - blogging everyday at the beginning of the year, but like most new years resolutions I faded into the third month.  Once I missed one day,  then another, it snowballed into nearly three weeks straight.  I am mostly to blame, however, a small portion of the blame can be placed on the fact that our main computer went down with a virus and had to be taken in twice before it was cleaned and working properly.  Another small portion of the blame can go on Sharon, as she is taking more time on the computer than usual working on plans for her class reunion.  Another small portion of the blame can go on Nick, as he listens to music on line and chats with his multitude of friends.  Another small portion of the blame can go on the volcano in Iceland...I'm not sure why, but it seems like the thing to do these days.  Another small portion of the blame can go on the economy...again I'm not sure why, I'm just a lemming following the crowd.  I guess in reviewing all of this there are so many small things to blame that I guess I am not at fault at all.   Whew!  Now that I've settled that, I think I'll go watch Bolt.

blog name

I enjoyed a nice family day today.  Sharon's side of the family came over and we feasted, went for a walk to the river, played Whoonu, watched some basketball and also watched one of my favorite movies, Bolt.

While watching the movie, just after the part where the cats tease Bolt, Melanie (Alex's girlfriend) figured out that part of the movie is where I got my blog name from.  I laughed.  Of course I laughed at several parts of the movie....yes, even after multiple viewings I still laugh.
