I think I might be waking up from a nice long blogging nap. I've been contemplating it for awhile and decided I might give it a go again. We'll see how it goes.
I have realized that one thing holding me back from posting is feeling the need to have pictures every time. So I am going to leave that expectation behind me and if you get a picture, feel lucky. I do LOVE posting them, but I will still post if I don't have time to upload them (for some reason that's a stretch for me to do).
I also have had a hard time deciding the direction I would like to take this blog. Journal, family scrapbook, to keep those far away updated and so many more ideas. I have not decided on where I want to go. It will probably be quite random until I decide. So I guess for now it is a 'whatever random thing I am thinking about at the moment' blog.
Right now I am thinking about the Olympics because I just watched the closing ceremonies. I have decided that I really really really like to watch the sports. I got quite into this time and enjoyed myself. I love getting myself invested in the players and my heart pounding as they are about to start. I love the anticipation of what's going to happen. My heart hurts when someone falls or makes a mistake. And I tear up when someone I get attached to wins or has some other touching moment. All in all, it is the Olympics. But this last week has been a little rough (Jack sick and Kev gone) so I feel like I have missed a lot. Therefore the watching the closing tonight was a little bittersweet to me. Bitter because I missed some events I was looking forward to, and Sweet because I can finally go to bed at a decent hour.
Oh and in case you were wondering what I thought of the closing ceremony itself, well.....there were parts that were ok and parts that were painful to watch for me. What did you think? (NO, I am not trying to become one of the major blogs that gets a lot of comments, I just want to know what the people that I don't talk to all that often really do think. That is if anyone reads this...)

I would answer your original question and tell you what I thought about the closing ceremonies. But I didn't watch them. Or any other part of the olympics. Sad right? We don't have TV and NBC's internet video program won't work on anything but a brand new mac. That was a mad day when I realized that.
And I always have trouble deciding the direction my blog is heading. And I'm going for random. Updates when there are some. Pictures when I take them. Thoughts when I feel like sharing. Maybe that way you get an all around me? We will see if anyone can tolerate it :)
Good to hear from you!
YAY! You updated! Glad you're still alive :) Can't wait for the lucky day we get a picture update post =)
Olympics... I feel bad saying this, but I'm kinda mad at them. Because of the Olympics, Biggest Loser has been canceled for 3 weeks! Grrrrrrr... but I did watch a few ice skating performances, and I know whatcha mean about feeling really bad for them when they mess up. Cuz ya know they've done it perfectly hundreds of times in practice, and worked hard for years....
I liked watchinh Torah Bright just cuz she's LDS and a good rep for the church.
I love watching the olympics too. I too (along with casey)get into it...cry, cheer, celebrate whatever...it's great.
It was nice to hear from you!
I'm glad you're back to blogging! I've missed hearing from you. While the pics are wonderful, I most love reading about people's thoughts. Keep em coming!
As for the Olympics, I didn't watch them at all. Or, everytime I turn on my TV, it's always Curling, and I think that's boring. I am more of a Summer Olympics gal!
I didn't watch any of the Olympics this year (which is unusual for me). I'll try a little harder in 2 years.
I am so happy that you posted. Welcome back to the blogging world. I have missed you. I don't care about pictures, I just want to know what you are up to. I miss you all the time and I am happy to hear you are doing well. Hope Jack is feeling better. Miss you
