Trying out FaceBook

Does it feel colder to anyone else out there? I think hell must have finally frozen over. That's right, even though it goes way beyond everything I believe, I have signed up for facebook. Let me tell you, I am not impressed. Even with highspeed internet, it takes forever to load pages, and there is so much going on, I hardly know where to begin. The only positive thing I can say is it has pulled up some names that are truely blasts from the past!
I hadn't had a chance to log onto my computer since the 4th, because we contracted a virus and my laptop was out of commission and I could only access my computer at work, where I have little time to do more than check my email. So, I just wanted to say it was sooo great to see everybody on the 4th! I can't believe its been an entire year. We really need to try and get together more often than that. I wish the rain could of held off. With the kids, we had to get out while we could, so I'm sorry we missed the fireworks. We managed to beat the storm home by 5 minutes, and were able to watch the downtown fireworks on TV. Sophie really enjoyed turning out the lights and snuggling up on the couch. It was fun until the empending storm knocked out the satellite! Susan, if you read this, tell Edith and Paul that Caryl and I had a really good time, and we always enjoy our trips to their house. They are truely exceptional hosts! Please tell them, "Thank You!" for us :v]
Well, thats it for now. I'll blog again soon!

The unofficial is now official. Caryl got her license in the mail, and is now officially an RN! I'm so proud of her. A lot of blood, sweat, and tears really went into the making of this milestone.
Caryl, Soph, Dex, and myself will actually be able to make it out to the 4th party at Paul and Edith's! We'll probably get out there around 3 or 4 pm. It should be a great time. It's supposed to rain in the morning, but they said there will be plenty of dry time throughout the day. Let's keep our fingers crossed!
I have finally done something I swore I would never do, and thats signed up with facebook! I am very much against those social networking sites, but due to increased pressure from friends and family, I made the plunge. I must say, I was right. It is not a pleasent experience. I tried uploading my interests and things, spending about a 1/2 hr adding funny, interesting things, and then it erased it all! I don't know. Maybe after fiddling with it, I'll start liking it better. So far, its just a hassle.
Well, I'm at work so I'll see ya'll 2moro!
