hey, i made these

The things on my sister's hands. That adorable little slice of colorful lovins is kirby's favorite ummm...cousin, Max. His given name is Maxwell Smart. I've been known to call him Max, Wing-nut, monkey (lately), maxi-pie, MP Slammer (for MC Hammer), freak, baby, sweetie-pie and I could go on but my all-time favorite is "Maxi-pad". Kirby sure was so happy when they visited about a month ago. When she was here, I knitted those little wristwarmers for my sister to keep her little artist's hands warm...only to find out she's likely going to be moving to Sacramento, aka....sack-u-tomatoes.

BTW, this dog...can curl his tongue and drill it all the way up your nose-hole into your sinuses if you're not careful!

I just thought I would start sharing some photos instead of having to write aything remotely interesting. Here is one happy dog! He loves the beach so I think I should make an effort to go more often this summer!

decisions

It's been over a month since I have posted and I'm not sure if it's because I have been so busy with work...and play. Either way, I just haven't been posting enough and do feel a little guilt but not too much because I know that only a few people visit but those who do...I apologize! For what it's worth, snowboarding is stellar this year and my work responsibilities continue to grow and expand.

So maybe I have pondered this decision in the past but again, I feel the need to re-adress. I am wondering if I should jump on the Myspace bandwagon and expand on that site but then some of my friends and family members would have to create their own account to log on to myspace to see all details, pictures, etc. Is it worth it? Myspace is SO popular and the it seems those who use it regularly, love it.

I do love this site. I love the fact I have pictures and stories on here from a year ago. I love the fact that it's easy to get to and it's not too terribly difficult to update (html codes, etc.) I love my Bloglines and I have not figured how Myspace would fit in that application.

I am not too fond of myspace for one silly reason that I know should just get-over. Whenever I log on, I tend to feel like I am involved in this HUGE popularity contest that I have no right being involved in. It reminds me of highschool again and although I had wonderful friends back then, I could not stand that "who's cool and who's not" part of it all.

I guess I should just sit on this..at least for today, discuss it over with friends/family and decide where to go from there.

I hate decisions but those who know me, already know that!
