Testing…testing
So here’s Xanga 2.0… It’s nice to still be here. I still want to get my WordPress going, but I am super happy to have my community here safe… I’ve been wanting to get back to serious blogging like I did in the old days.
On that topic, the dear Girl Child is amazing me daily. She’s acquired a lot of language ability lately so she’s able to entertain herself and communicate much more effectively so we are both less frustrated! She also has started potty training herself. That caught me off guard. She’s only 18 months and I didn’t expect it so soon!
I’ve had good luck with the painting of late. Sales have been good and I’m hanging in four locations now – three restaurants in Knoxville and a gallery in Gatlinburg. We paint all the time just to keep up!
Here’s a recent piece. Flowers are where it’s at for me these days. Life is blooming!

Yay! I did miss this format.
This just feels like a safer place to say real stuff.
It’s so good to see you back here!!! My girls potty trained themselves also, isn’t life grand! I’m loving your flowery self!!!
It’s glorious to see the end of diapers somewhere on my horizon! Ha! Makes me feel like life is full of flowers instead of…er… poopy lol
Good to see you on here. Not posting much lately. 18 months old, time does fly. Cheers
Good to know you’re still here too. I hope you and yours are well and happy!

Life sounds excellent! I love the color in this one!!

I am so happy to see you are here again!
I think I’ll keep playing in the flowers for a while. Just started a new one today. It took a minute to recover from that “vacation” we took! That’s hard work with a tiny girl who wants to walk for herself!
good to see you here.
You too!
I sure remember the blessing of potty training. lol We had 3 kids close together in age–my wife’s idea since we were raised alone mostly.
Nice painting–happy for you.
I m slowly starting to learn a few things about the new Xanga 2.0. lol
Even 80 year old men can learn.

The new interface is pretty ok. It’s taking me a minute to figure out… Hopefully I’ll be able to follow my friends better now. I really like the new comment structure. I don’t have to wait so much for the page to load or scroll back and forth.
Great to see you’re still here!
