Powdered Blue

Alas. I sent my last couple of movies out to my family and not a one has commented. I even stated that the first one took five hours to make. I think I'm writing to myself here, except for a few loyal readers...Hi Atasha and Lisa! Mark went to Las Vegas this week (he's back now) and I was (still am) very lonely. Without family near by, I try hard to keep in touch. I thought this blog might be a good way to let people know what we are up to since we are so far away. Sadly, not. Sometimes I do get lonely, like today. When I'm not keeping in touch by blogging, I send Kodak photo galleries and invites to see my movies. How do you keep in touch with your distanced relatives? Who has time to call all of them? I'm even lonely when Mark is here. We are often tired at the end of the day and our energy is spent playing with Little Miss. Honestly, I don't remember the last time...oh what's it called...something...oh what's that word!?...romantic, yes, romantic happened. He's right there on the couch, sleeping after his trip and being up all night, but he might as well be in Timbuktu. My mom and her Larry are coming to visit next week and said we could have a night out. That would be nice. I ate an entire box of Hostess powdered donettes yesterday.

Oh No Not Hostess!!

Sorry you are feeling lonely. I feel the same since Chris is gone most of the day and then comes home and is so pooped. I told him a few days ago we don't do anything together really. He asked me today, How come I don't get to go to the mall with you guys. Well you have to work so that we CAN go to the mall! It's a sad thing. He has to work tomorrow. That's all I can say.

Anyhoo didn't mean to hijack your comment section. As far as keeping in touch with everybody? Well I do the kodakgallery also. It's my job to keep everybody up to par on the kids' progress and it's not easy. I can't keep track of the in-laws and sometimes I just plain forget. I'm like the secretary or something.

Youknow what helps me through all the mess and loneliness, well I talk to my mom everyday. Sometimes I just call her to say hi and what are you doing? I tell her I have no one to talk to so I just called to say hi. Sometimes I call Chris and manage to get in hello, then all I hear is "Hi, sorry sweets I have to go" Well atleast he tries.

Sorry, another novel for a comment :-( I am going to take a drink now.

I am so guilty of not doing a great job of keeping my family updated on Hana pix. They see her probably every 3 mos or so. I have to figure out how to share my flickr acct with them minus the snarky pics (like the ones where I took my "Donald Rumsfeld" action figure doll and put him in ridiculous situations, or the ones I took trespassing onto our decaying uninhabited old family abode - somehow my folks might not appreciate that I did that) Theres no way they could see my blog, it's just too weird and I took it down for the time being while I figure out what I really want to write about.
I guess I could just set up a separate "All Hana" flickr account and send the link to them. I'm going to try putting some movies together, too! (In all my wonderful spare time, which is packed with tons of romance and physical fulfillment just like yours is!! ;) (well, at least it's packed with tasty treats...I ate a whole Rocky Mtn. Chocolate apple the other day, so don't feel too terrible!
