Things on my list:

  • Templates to choose from.
  • Simplifying the backend for users
  • Borders on images in activity feeds (done)
  • Add appropriate groups
  • Full site search
  • Premium features
  • Sponsorship badges
  • Affiliate abilities
  • A few additions & possibly graphics to the sidebar

…… and those are just things I can think of off of the top of my head at 2 in the morning.

Well, guess what.  Here we go again.

As you can see, the layout has changed again. I’ve learned a million things over the past year about the script I use to run Mommy City. Now, because of all the knowledge I’ve gain, I’m really excited to get back to this project. I have lots of ideas up my sleeve & with the help of a friend (you know who you are) I hope to get MC up and going and…… I’m so excited I can hardly control myself. Hahaa

Yes, things have finally started moving and we’re getting this placed whipped into shape.  Finally, after more than 3 years, this domain will be put to use as intended.

Lots of new features will be added over the next week and as soon as everything’s ready to go, I’ll send out a letter to all of our registered users.

Cross your fingers & wish me luck

- Chris

The results weren’t good.  His platelets dropped down to 60k.  The nurse from Riley said it’s okay and he’s still on track… but..  it still worries me. I hope she’s right and the next count, in 2 weeks, will be up again.

On the way to the hospital, we drove past this pile of garbage. I couldn’t believe what I saw. At first, it seriously shocked me. The shock only lasted for a matter of seconds but… it was still shocking.

Once we got to the hospital, I realized I should’ve stopped and picked it up and I had probably missed my chance. We tried to hurry & get everything taken care of. Thankfully, the whole process never takes more than 15 minutes.

Christian, Kalie & I jumped back into the hearse and raced off to the trash pile. And wouldn’t you know it… we got stuck by a stupid train. That thing had to be 200 miles long and moving at a rate of 3 miles an hour.

Christian kept saying “We’re not gonna make it!! Someone else is gonna get it!! Stupid train!!”  The only response I could come up with was “I know I know!! Come on you stupid train!!”

The train finally passed and we drove 3 or 4 blocks and CRAAAAP!!!  The garbage truck was RIGHT THERE!!  He was at the house right next door and I was like NO NO NO!!  I hurried and pulled into the parking lot beside the trash pile, slammed the car into park, turned it off and jumped out, almost killing myself with my seatbelt.  “Hey dummy.. You gotta take the seatbelt off in order to get out.”

I ran up to the garbage pile and grabbed my new prize. This sucker’s going in the back of my hearse for all the window peepers.  =D  I may make him body, put a blindfold on him and tie him up. Bahahaaaa

I told her what happened last week and she, lied the guy that works there, was all “Omigosh!!” at the size of the needle that woman used.  The more I think about it, the more I want to go to her superiors.  I really should.. shouldn’t I?  The one time they don’t sent out a survey, I would actually like to get one and tell them what a crap job they did.

Anyways……..  I got to see my good friend Becky today. She’s down here from Colorado. Her daughter is pregnant and due tomorrow so she came down for the birth. I can’t wait to show you guys what she brought me. It’s so neat!! And she made it herself.

My plants finally came today. I bought a banana tree, some indoor tomato plants that are suppose to produce all year and some strawberry plants.  I was a little upset when I realized it was going to be 3 years before I might possibly get a banana from the tree. I mean, I can kill a plant by looking at it. LOL Christian said “That’ll be dead in 3 months.”  I may’ve been offended if it weren’t true.

Do any of you watch Craig Ferguson?  I love that guy!  He’s just hysterical.  Did anyone see Tuesday night’s episode with Denis Leary?  Oh man… just hilarious!!

Let’s see… what else….???

OH!!!  Thank you to all of you who went and voted for my themes.  =D  I really appreciate it.  This is gonna be a long 2 weeks waiting for the results.

I think that’s all for now.  =D  See ya’ll tomorrow when I have pictures of my gift from Becky. Can’t wait Cant wait!  =D

Oh wait… Hahaaa.. I forgot to tell you that I’m feeling better and Kennie can finally walk again. Yippee
