Thanks for the Bloggy Love

September 24, 2007 · 1 Comment

Thanks to everyone for the comments. I feel so much better now. I know people read, but sometimes it just feels like I am talking to myself out here which would not be a stretch for me.  You all are so much more interesting than I am. I need your comments to keep this blog entertaining.
And welcome Lois. Please don’t lurk in the interent darkness any longer. :)

And you would not believe the amount of hits I got this week looking for castle cakes. :)

I may need to start a blog about cakes because I get a lot of searches about cakes. Now that I have written cake three times in this entry I will get a few more. Castle cakes are in big demand and I mean a cake in the shape of a castle, not a castle cake made by a Castle Mom.

Blogs are funny. I don’t usually like to talk about what I write here with people I actually know. I know you read it  because sometimes I will be talking with someone and they will mention something I wrote on here. Sometimes I forget what I wrote and I’m all  How did you know that? Freaks me out a little. I know, I am crazy.

It would be nice if people who read all about the Castle’s lives would leave a comment once in awhile. Every day would be good. My mom gets an out because she doesn’t know how to comment. I’m lucky she just started reading a couple of weeks ago. I don’t think my brother reads yet. And I know Larry’s family doesn’t. So I can still write about them and get away with it. Kidding.

I was at a Bible study the other night and someone named Tracy mentioned something on the blog. I told her I would mention her here. I also have friends named Kim and Benita that like to lurk here. Hi Girls!

So I’m just sayin’ would it kill you all to comment?

I’m It!

May 23, 2007 · 7 Comments

Christina has tagged me for some internet fun. I feel so special. I have never been tagged before. I guess I have to tell you some interesting tidbits about myself and then tag some other people. So here goes.

1. I taught third grade for three years and my favorite subject to teach was handwriting, if that even is a subject. I also have terrible handwriting unless I am writing on a chalkboard.

2. Speaking of chalk…. I used to eat it when I was little. My mom had to call poison control once. When I was a teacher I loved the smell of chalk.

3. I met Larry when I was 14. We have known each longer than we have not.

4. If I had a boy baby I would have named him Zachary Edward because Larry liked that name.

5. I have a bald spot about the size of a dime on the back of my head. When I was born they broke my mom’s water and poked me on the head. I know…that explains a lot. It’s a good thing I have a lot of hair.

6. My favorite flowers are daisies. Any kind. Feel free to send me some.

7. I killed my hamster when I was three by hugging it to death. It was an accident. I was just a little excited. (My mom tells this story. I have blocked it from my memory. I only remember the good times with Hammy.)

8. I always wanted to be a boy. When I was six I would take my shirt off outside when I was hot. I wanted to be like my brother. If he could do it I could too. My mom clued me in that it was unacceptable for girls to go shirtless. Thanks mom.

I tag anyone that has not been tagged yet and can’t think of anything to write.

Make a Geek Happy

May 17, 2007 · 3 Comments

Tomorrow is my husband’s 35th birthday. Please do me a favor, as a present to him, go and leave him a comment on his blog. It would be great if there would be 35 comments. One for every year he has been alive.

He won’t even know I’m asking you to do this since he always forgets to read my blog. He does read other Mom bloggers. In fact, he even nominates them for awards like “Hottest Mom Blogger.” He swears it wasn’t meant to be about her looks. It means her blog is hot right now.

So please. All 20 of you go and make his geekiness happy. Leave a comment or two.

The Happy Husband

May 10, 2007 · Leave a Comment

Larry, the happy house husband had finally done it. He has succeeded in becoming a better mom than I am.

He has received a shout out on a Mom blog. And not just any Mom blog. She has been on TV, people. She is famous. And she linked to my Geekbert.

I have not seen Larry so excited since Mac OS X came out. He has had Blog envy over my traffic for some time now. It’s a little contest we have going. Some couples go out on dates or talk to each other. We just compare blog stats and leave comments on each others blog.

He had more hits on his blog this morning than I did.

That’s it. I’m getting him a mother’s day present.

Hmm. Maybe some nice underwear.

I Might Change It Again Tomorrow

April 17, 2007 · 3 Comments

Because of the insane jealousy over my beautiful toes I had to change the picture again. Plus I just like to change the picture. I get bored easy. Maybe I have Blogger ADD.

This is a picture Larry took of Emma on our church property. It is one of my favorites. I know I didn’t take it because he had to lay in the long grass to get this angle.

I’m allergic to grass.
