Allright already

I am trying to figure out how to get my past posts on separate pages and am having no luck with the simple layout stuff on here. What do I do so I don't have 500 posts on one page? Maybe someone can help me.

I can't believe that it's already February. I feel like time is flying and I can't get near the stuff I want done completed. Of course, it's not like I'm working night and day to make it happen. Mostly, it's stuff I don't want to have to do myself but I still want done. It would be nice to be able to hire people to do everything for you.

I don't have anything in particular on my mind, so I'll just address some fun stuff I've seen lately. First and foremost, I love the cavemen commercials from Geico. com. Have you seen the ads that look like they have taken out a full page ad to complain about the Geico commercial? It's now my background on my computer. The guys who play the cavemen really do a great job with their attitude and their facial expressions. They play it perfectly.

I just read a really fun website called guiltfreehomeschooling.blogspot.com. I really liked the attitude of the poster. I think I may have a lot in common with her point of view. I am not a great formalizer in my education practices. I like to use textbooks and I like to be able to set them aside to learn that which is more interesting to my students. You can cover a lot of information from a textbook while also looking at points of interest in depth. Tomorrow, I think the kids and I will be looking at the Spartans and Athenians. Maybe we'll do something fun with our study. Maybe one can be an Athenian and the other a Spartan and I'll ask them what they would do as such in different situations. Maybe they will even think or something.

Has anyone used adsense on their blogspot? Have you ever had any objectionable advertisements on your site because of it? Can you still participate even if wish to have some advertisers removed?

Didn't watch the Super Bowl, never have. Don't care.

Holidays are over and life goes on.

It's great to have one time of the year to which you can look forward no matter what else is going on in the world. I know there are some who would castigate those who celebrate Christmas because it has ties to old pagan rituals or Catholic ties but I have to say, I'm glad it is not so with me and my family. It is nice to have a time of year in which you can focus on a celebration that has so much meaning. Christ's birth is the biggest thing that has happened in the history of mankind and I think it is appropriate to celebrate.

I'm not big on shopping but I don't even mind that during Christmas. The thing I enjoyed the most this year is that Christmas was a time to put my problems down and just enjoy time with family and friends.

As the new year begins, I have a few things I would like to see happen. I would like to see me loose some weight. The only problem is that I have to do something about it and that's a real bummer. Time will tell on that one. Also, I would like to be consistent in how I am able to home school over the next few years. So I hope that I choose the best curriculum.

Looking back at last year, (looking back is not something I do a lot) I can see that the Lord had his hand on life situations. I am amazed that he cares so much for each of us. I'm not always the best at bringing all my cares to Him and yet He knows them and He knows my heart. (And He loves me anyway, amazing.)

The most exciting thing about last year was the graduation of my oldest daugher, Frank. (A pseudonym--I really wouldn't name a girl Frank, but her friends would.) I was very excited for her as she entered a new phase of her life. She will always be our girl but we are happy to see her grow and mature. We are blessed in that she has found a school that she loves and is happy attending.

I don't know if anyone will really read this blog, besides Frank, and really I don't care. It's probably the only journal I will ever keep in my life. Since I'm such a computer junkie, it's a way for me to write things down in a somewhat regular way. Maybe someone will stumble upon it and find it amusing.

HAVE A WONDERFUL 2007!
