The Dodge Family Blog

As a family, we are reading the scripture stories from the church web site, the ones that used to be found in the old “Book of Mormon Reader” that we all remember so well from childhood. For the longest time, I was sure that none of this was sinking in with the kids. Boy, was I wrong.

Lately I have been thinking about blogging without the need to actually log into my website. There used to be a great tool for Firefox called “Performancing”, which has been renamed to “ScribeFire”…but it never really worked to my specifications. I am trying a couple of them out, one called w.bloggar, the other “Windows Live Writer”.

I have been eating an elephant these past couple of weeks. Mike and I are both in our shows, while trying to move my stuff out and in and working all at the same time. Here is an idea of how things have been. Mike wakes up at 6:00 am to get ready for work. I wake up a little bit after to get his lunch ready and get him out the door in time to either catch tracks or drive to work, (I have realized that when Mike gets on the computer in the morning he looses all sense of time) he is at work all day doing his thing. I Have my elephant to eat, you should see our house right now we have paths throughout the house and boxes everywhere else. This week I have been getting my apartment cleared out and cleaned. It is all done, yeah! Next week I get to tackle the boxes in the house. Anyway back to our day I kind of went off. Mike gets home at 6:00 to grab dinner, while I have to be at my play at 6:00 (I am usually late) Mike goes to his play, the kids are at the babysitter. Our shows end. I get the kids. We meet back at home at around 10:30 /11:00, we say prayer read scripture get to bet at around 12:00! It has been sooooooo crazy, and I miss my totally awesome husband.

On a really good note, last night was opening night for me. It was so fun! Practicing day in and day out got kind of old, but the end result was totally worth it. I won’t be doing this very often, because it is hard on the kids when I have to devote so much time to it, but I will defiantly be doing it again in the late future.

That is about it for now. Hope you liked this blog of mine, and Mike if you are reading this, I love you so much, thank you for being so totally awesome!!!!!!!

Well, all I can say is don’t let a computer geek take his computer on the honeymoon! j/k it has actually helped us get directions to various places. Mike really did say it all, we are having a great time being married although I don’t think we could take too much of Vegas, it is all very overpowering to the senses. I am looking forward to all the great food we are going to eat tomarow, can you tell I am hungry, it is fast Sunday, anyway I will let you all go do something else, have a great day we are!

I can’t sleep, it’s 6:00 AM and the clock on the wall is chiming a melancholy tune to remind me that the final hours of my “singlehood” are upon me. The kids will wake up in a couple of hours, I will feed them breakfast, take them to Grandma and Grandpa Dodge’s, where we will have lunch…then, the temple.
