New Blogger, Old Frogger, By the Way. . .

I'm trying to teach Laney that when she wakes up at night, it's okay to call for Daddy. Last night, I was up with her four (count that slowly, 1-2-3-4) times. So today, I'm distracted and tired and a little ill. And tonight is band practice for Lewis, so the chances of feeling any better tomorrow are slim.

I really should be working on the Valentine Banquet Program right now. But it's been so long since I chatted with my two readers, I thought I'd write something.

Let me first say, that I do not like the forced switch to the new blogger. (I'm not sure it was completely forced, but it felt that way). Secondly, I think there is another blog out there now, with my stuff, but no posts. If you end up there, I'm sorry. (But how will you know I'm sorry if you end up there? If a tree falls in the forrest . . .)

Okay, by the way, Lewis is in a band now. He reunited with the drummer from his old band who now plays Christian music exclusively. So, yay! And also, he really needs a job (Lewis, not the drummer), because we can't possibly afford to buy a new house by next year if he doesn't get something that pays better than the pawn shop.

By the way, Lewis is working in a pawn shop now. Long story short--was laid off, collected unemployment, took a really BAD job working 12 hour rotating shifts, got fired because he was late once in the probationary period, now working at the pawn shop. The last four months, we have prayed more about Lewis' job than ever before. Pray with us please.

By the way, we bought a new computer with some money we had from selling a vehicle and now we can play really old arcade style video games at all hours of the night. Haven't looked up Frogger yet, but it rhymes with Blogger, so I used it in the title anyway. I played Pac-man for a long time the other day, and Lewis has been trying to teach Marley how to play Donkey-Kong. It's amazing to me the technology we embrace in order to play games that were available twenty-five years ago. I wonder what an ATARI would cost me now? At least we're not just playing solitaire. My father-in-law has the most expensive deck of cards I've ever seen.

By the way, it's time to file taxes again. We'll get a big return this year, if we can ever get our last W-2. Always something to wait for it seems.

By the way, I hope someone will really read this. Is there anybody out there?
