Grrrrrr!

So I downloaded the free Blogger ap and I understand why it only has 2 1/2 stars out of 5.  How do you read posts on it?  That is what I really want to do.  The only thing I can figure out how to do on it is post to my own blog.  Helpful but not what I will do the most.

Grrrrr.

And, I am wondering where Stephen is.  He was supposed to get off work at 8 and he is still not home and has not called to let me know he is on his way home, which he usually does.  If he got extra hours that is good, but he really needs to get to bed soon because we have to be at his parents' tonight at 6 which means leaving our place around 5:15, 5:20 and he will need to wake up about 4:45 or so to be ready so if he does not get home soon he will not get 6 hours of sleep and will be cranky.

Joy.

I really wish the ap for my phone let me check posts because I rarely use our desktop computer, even since it was moved to the bedroom.

Especially since then.

When it was in the office you had to make the choice to shut yourself away from the rest of the household to get on the computer and it was always too hot or too cold in there since we kept the vents closed.  But at least I could be on the computer while Stephen was sleeping.

Now, I cannot be on the desktop when he is sleeping.  And if he is awake and home I want to spend what time I can with him, so we are generally in the kitchen or living room.  So the only time I ever want to get on the computer is when he is at work... and that is when I usually sleep.

I've pretty much given the ipad over to Stephen for his games so that leaves my phone as the only device I generally use at home.

Which is perfectly fine.  I can check facebook, beat cousin Bert at words with friends (yes, I am currently in the lead but he will shortly make an 8 letter word over a triple word score and my measly 60 point lead will vanish), play Tiny Tower (the game I am currently addicted too), read the Bible, and call/text people on the phone.

Now it is 10 and still no word from Stephen.  Sigh.

Guess I will go ahead and post this and restock my Tiny Tower.

Happy 4th... sort of

We had a very nice, non-traditional 4th of July.  Stayed up late on July 3rd playing games with our friends the Murrays, rented a couple of red box movies on the way home.  Since I did not have to work on the 4th I matched my schedule to Stephen's so we got home and "napped" for 3 hours and then got up and watched Oz the Great and Powerful and Stephen made sausage gravy and biscuits for breakfast.  We went to sleep around 10 (when the parade was blocking our street) and I woke up 3 hours later and got dressed and went shopping with Becky.  Got home and we had BLTs for dinner, watched Grown Ups (totally not worth the 1.30 to rent) and napped before Stephen left for work and I fell asleep to the sounds of fireworks.
