It's Monday!


Due to my two baby sisters encouraging me to unveil my new blog site, I had to hurry up and complete it. As if I have nothing else to do today.




I feel pressure! I feel like I am in a competition....like when you're at a creative memories party and you are quietly trying to compete with your friend in doing the better page.




Anyway, my blog spot is what it is. Is that what it is called, "a blog spot?" This is new territory for me. I am not used to opening myself like this. I feel vulnerable, but on the other hand, this is a good way to let family and friends see what is going on in our life and see pictures of our sweet children.




Today.....Monday. Today is an abnormal day. Danny had to attend a funeral in Brandon, Florida. It is about 2 hours from here, right above Tampa. He asked me last night if I wanted to go with him to the funeral. I laughed and said, "with 4 children?" So I suggested he take Maddie and make a "date" out of the funeral. He did. He just called and said that they were eating lunch at Smokey Bones. Yum!




So today is abnormal since I only have the boys and Margaux home with me. Things are a little quieter. I spent the morning listing some things on ebay for Maddie. She spent all her money last week and realized that her purchases were really not a good choice, so she is on a quest to get money via ebay. I am wondering who will be first in my family to go to my ebay account to see what I am selling. Hmmmm... Mom, then Donna, then Dolly??? Dayna and Dawn will tie, or not go there at all.




Well, Harry Jack just wokeup. Gotta go. Let me know if you want a link to your blog on my site. And, those of you who do not have a blog, start one. It is overwhelming at first, but it gives you a great feeling of accomplishment when it is unveiled.

Yea! Denise has a blog!!!! First of all, I'm laughing at the Creative Memories scenario! I can relate to that one. Also, is this Maddie's first funeral? I would love to see Danny explaining to her in the car what she'll be witnessing/experiencing.
Cute pics of the kids. I tried to do the poll on Margaux but it wouldn't let me do it? I think she looks like Maddie.

I'm SOOOO happy to see another blogger to add to the list. Denise, this is a great blog and we'll enjoy getting updates from a typical day in southwest Florida. Don't feel pressured to update it everyday. Only when people start complaining because they are sick of seeing the same pictures everyday. Good work! I love the poll thing too. How did you do that? I need to venture out a little! On my way to check out your ebay items...

Yeah, Denise!!!!!! I just saw your link on Dolly's site and had to stroll on over to check ou the latest blog. Good work! I also learned something new. How do you look up stuff on people's ebay accounts? Since I'm officially a stay at home mom, I've REALLY gotten into ebaying right along w/ the blogging. Let me know if you put any of Margaux's stuff on there!

Hannah, you are funny.

Ebay is great. Name brand things sell best. Things like Polo, Tommy, etc. You have to know a sellers screen name in order to look up what they are selling, and then there is a place to save that screen name in your "favorite sellers" on your "my ebay" page.

I will let you know when I put Margaux's things on there---unless Dolly tells us that she is pregnant and having a girl.

Oh, my screen name is dannidenni.
