YouTube

I usually upload my videos and make them public so I can add them onto here and people can watch them with ease. I uploaded one yesterday and I was going to post it today. The freakin' thing already has been viewed 86 times!! DANG! I think maybe I just uploaded it at a busy and boring time. I bet most of those views were like 3 seconds and then they left. I don't know how I feel about that yet, but here's Noah and I making cookies :) It's really nothing special! He was being really cute and counting and I wanted to capture it on video, but then he saw the camera and lost his concentration. Little ham.



In a semi-related story. I checked my Flickr today and noticed someone I didn't know had marked the picture of me pregnant in the green striped shirt as a favorite. I was curious so I clicked on this person and discovered he/she had several collections of pregnancy photos, one of which was titled "Pregnancy Porn" (which of course I did NOT click). So I quickly deleted that harmless photo and reposted it as friends and family only. I've heard of these kinds of weird people, but never imagined I'd be one of the collectibles. I am feeling a little grossed out by the web right now. I am going to remain positive and keep things public. A majority of people out there are just decent people and I like meeting new people.

The new blogger has a lot more privacy settings. You can do invite only and password protect it. It's great!

Yeah we don't make cookies very often because I'm just not a big fan of sweets. Oatmeal cookies are gooood though, not too sweet :)

Very bad day today

I got a horrible phone call early this morning from someone I used to work with. A friend of mine, who was stationed in Iraq, was killed yesterday in her sleep when her trailer was hit. SGT Trista Moretti was an amazing person. She had an impact on so many lives in so many places. It's going to be tough for everyone (like me) who can't make it to Jersey to say goodbye. I've been crying off and on all damn day. It seems so unfair. I hate this war and don't agree with it, but I don't think she died in vain. She died for everyone else out there. They fight for each other, not a cause, not their government. That's what I miss about the Army. I miss my comrades. Trista was hilarious and beautiful and had this great Jersey accent. We used to play word games and gossip and eat lunch together every day. We would laugh all day long while we "worked" haha. I remember when she first got to the unit I told everyone some bitchy chick with an accent was in the...

Hurricane Sandy

This will be a gleefully uneventful post, but I thought I should at least inform everyone of our whereabouts during Frankenstorm. On Friday the landfall predictions were further south, which had the eye passing near our tiny town after obliterating Dover, DE.  We happen to be surrounded by water.  The Patuxent River on one side, Chesapeake Bay on the other, plenty of swamps and creeks in between.  Not a good prospect. Josh and I had gone out that night to try and secure supplies and already, there were no batteries or flashlights.  We also don't have a grill and thought "we'll try Lowe's tomorrow"I mean, most people already own grills... right?  Everything in our house is run on electricity (including the water pump for the well) except for the fireplace.  I don't know what builders are thinking when they do that.  I at least want a gas stove and water heater!  So, anyways.  We got a few hours of sleep before trying to brave the crowds...

Hiking on the Guadarrama Trail

As promised yesterday, I actually left the house and went on a hike with Mama C and Goober!  YAY! I was a bad Mommy and ill prepared to shield us from the hot Spanish sun so we all have a touch of sunburn.  Whoops.  It was fun though.  OK so here's where we began our journey.  You can see the bridge between the roundabout and the little house with a red roof (which is a restaurant).  All the cylindrical buildings were a plant nursery.  We walked over the bridge and past the nursery where we crossed the street and then started up the dirt path.  The other little building is literally a Gypsy Keep. Here's what it looked like from the road... and it was so ridiculously creepy, yet fascinating.  I don't know why there is always tons of junk in trees around gypsy places.  There was a gutted van in the backyard, a stroller jammed into a wall, shorts in the trees.  We both wanted to trespass, but the kids would have inevitably fal...
