how embarrassing...

so i've switched over to the "new blogger"...something that i don't really understand the usefulness of. all i do is type words and click publish. the end. but anyway, when everything had been converted over i noticed there was a new box at the top. and in that new box, it had a link that said there were 43 comments for me to review. not knowing what this was i clicked on it (not always a good idea, by the way) and there was a long list of comments that had been made, but not posted, because it was waiting for me to publish them! i had NO IDEA i even needed to do that! just one more bit of proof that i will never be quite computer savvy. so i have reviewed them all, and published everything from my dear friends. and all this time i thought surely no one even read this blog anymore.

SO SORRY friends! thanks for commenting. i promise to do my publishing part in the future.

in other news, my sweet little niece turned 1 this week. she was given a cake in the hopes that she would "dive" right in. however she opted for the high road and refused to get dirty in the process. i think her daddy ended up feeding her most of it with a fork! good girl.
