So, I've decided that I really need to step-it-up on this blogging thing.  Especially since I've only been posting on the weekends, which was not my original intent.  And I really don't know why it's happening. 

Yeah, okay...I'm lying.  Big time.  I admit it.  I know exactly why I don't write during the week.  It's because of all of YOU!  Yeah, you read that right...you.

Because, frankly, I have so many other people's blogs on my favorite/have-to-check-daily/if-not-several-times- daily list, that by the time I wade my way through all of their posts, I have absolutely no time to devote to my own senseless ramblings.

So, starting Monday, I'm going to start something new.  I'm going to quickly browse the posts when I first sit down at my computer in the morning, read what's there (and try to resist reading all of the comments, which most times takes longer then reading the post itself) and if someone hasn't posted yet, I'll just have to catch their post the next morning.  That's right!  I'm going for moderation.  That'll be a tough one for me, I'll let you know how it goes.

The other thing I need to stop doing is making almost every post about Ang.  That's going to be a hard one because she gives me so much material to work with!  And of course, the fact that she always lets me take her picture doesn't hurt either.

I just don't want my other kids to ever think that I post about her all of the time because I like her best, or anything.  Because I don't.  As a matter of fact...sometimes I like her least.  (Just kiddin' there Ang!)  Of course, I love them all the same...just in different ways and at different times!  And right now?  I don't even have to worry about any of them thinking anything about this blog...because none of them even know about it!

So...seeing that it's not yet Monday.  And...seeing that my kids won't be reading this so the other two won't feel slighted, I'm going to post yet another little photo series of Ang, who went for her checkup today.  (Notice that I got my camera back!)

That one picture is of the questionare that they have the kids fill out when they become 'adolescents'.  She was laughing as she filled it out because for her innocent self, so many of the questions are just crazy.  (The ones about sex and drugs, etc.)  I hope they stay crazy to her for a looonnnggg time!

But, being the jokester that she is...the last question asked,

"If you could change one thing about your life or yourself, what would it be?"  And she writes:

"I would want my toenail to grow back."

Because, ewww, she managed to rip off one of her big toe nails over the summer in a freak stubbing, plus getting stepped on and then a re-stubbing accident.

So we cracked up when she wrote it down because no one ever notices that it's missing because she paints the skin with whatever color nail polish she's wearing...and it doesn't bother her at all.

The worst part was, the doctor asked me to step out of the room while she examined her...and then looked at the sheet Ang had filled out and discussed the whole 'toenail' thing with her..and Ang went right along with it, and never told her that she had just been joking.

Sometimes I wonder where this child came from...
