Wow! I was getting Kiara and myself ready to finally go to bed.  It is pouring outside and has been raining hard all night.  I opened the family room doors to see how high the water was in our back yard.  As I closed the doors and was ready to leave the room I notice out of the side of my eye something hopping.  I thought great its a cricket and I am not going to be able to sleep.  I turned on the lights and it is a very tiny frog.  It was the size of my vitamins.  It was trying to get back outside so I got a cup and helped outside.  I love frogs but not in my family room on my floor!

I love Skype, but am surprised that it's not already on my calendar (I'm such a bad friend)...

According to his profile, today is Bruce Elgort's birthday! Happy Birthday Bruce... and many more!

Make sure you stop by his blog or send him a Tweet and wish him a happy birthday!

UPDATE: What a great day for birthdays! I just found out that it's Mikkel Heisterberg's birthday as well. Go wish Mikkel a happy birthday via his blog or Twitter also!

Wow Kiara's eye is very swollen and we  will be seeing a doctor tomorrow.  It is bigger today than yesterday. It almost looks as if  she has a black eye.

Hi everyone is there any suggestions you can send to me.  Kiara had a bug bite on the side of her face by her eye before she went to sleep.  She woke up with her eye swollen and the bite is swollen.  I gave her allergy medication but don't know what else might help.  Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks to everyone.
I think I just have a very bruised toe. I am able to walk on my foot without any pain. I am just glad it is summer. I can wear my flip flops and not have to worry about my toes being pushed together. I am also glad that Ray lets me stay home and be with Kiara. I don't have to worry about shoes in the house.
His favorite thing to say (bare foot and pregnant) that is what I am most of the time since I am home a lot.

I  was walking into our family room and hit my foot on the corner of the couch and heard a big crack.  The two toes next to the big one are in lots of pain and being pregnant I can only take tylenol.  I can move them but it is painful and they are swelling.  Putting ice on it only makes them throb more.  Wow I feel like a little kid  complaining.  I am going to try to put a pillow under it and try to sleep.  Any advise is welcomed.
Take care and God bless,
Jen

Twitter seems to be acting up, so I guess I'll ask it here:
Does anyone know of any best practices regarding the Administration Server for a mail file. I'm especially interested in anyone's experiences with setting the reader/author fields settings there.

Hey hey Hockeytown!

Congratulations to the Detroit Red Wings for winning the Stanley Cup in a great series with the Pittsburgh Penguins. Congratulations to Henrik Zetterberg for winning the Conn Smythe award for most valuable player. This gives the Wings their 11th Stanley Cup Championship in franchise history.

(As I was listening to the game on WXYT 97.1FM 'The Ticket', I noticed that it didn't sound like the regular play-by-play guy, Ken Kal. I just found out that Ken Daniels did the play-by-play up until the last few moments because Ken Kal had laryngitis.)

The parade will be on Friday at 11AM. The Detroit TV stations will probably stream it live on their websites. Leave a comment if you would like links.

I've tried to blog from Flickr as I've done before, but I'm having problems. Flickr said that it's worked, but I can't find the blog entry...

Any thoughts?

UPDATE: I went to the 'All Documents' view in Blogsphere, and the blog entries are there, but they claim to use the 'Blog' form instead of the standard 'content_BlogEntry' form. Any thoughts now?
