the gap
Alright, alright. I've got to get with the program. here's the problem. i'm mainly inspired by photos and my little laptop is at its max. It won't accept anything which totally bugs me. I guess it's time for a new computer, this one's full. Doug keeps telling me to dump a large portion of the 3000 photos and 2000 songs onto an external hard drive, but what if i need those things? I can't be running around hooking up hard drives everytime i want that cool Belle and Sebastian album back. What's a girl to do? Unless I want my computer to crash, i guess this girl needs to start dumping. Besides, then you can see Halloween costumes and photos from the funtastic week with my sister and her 3 sweet babies and the weekend with the boys from A-town who came down to work on our movie so we can make a movie that will make us a million dollars so i can quit this job and buy a house so i have enough room for more babies. It's a perfect plan. Anyway, we've been pretty busy. Some friends moved away and some friends moved in, (don't ask, an interesting ward exchange of sorts) we all got sick, owen got an ear infection and ended up at the doctor, sophie's team lost 2 games in a row and D is in New Zealand. Not sure what else to say, but at least the 411 is up. Happy JoMama? Will work on computer dilemma ASAP.

I've got about thirty pictures of your absolutely fabulous kids on my computer if you want them.
Here's to many more inspiring weekends down SoCal.

Addendum: Seeing the pictures of your . . . manfriend . . . add an element of horror to the whole story. Talk about a train wreck.
I'm still getting mileage out of "Hey, look at me!"

OK, so I hope you don't think that I am a total stalker or something. Don't even ask how I found this blog but when I did, something made me read it, all of it. Scarey, I know. But for some strange reason, I was so hooked, I found myself laughing outloud, mainly at your apartment managing stories. Why, well, I also manage an apartment complex, in San Francisco, and I also have a Sammy, a trash diver, and many tenants who love to take advantage of my habit of never being able to say no. So on I read, finding our lives to be eerily (is that a word?)similar. Then I really caught on, primary, sunbeams, sacrament meetings, root beer bottles... yep, Mormon, Ha! me too! Anyway, before I freak you out too much, I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for letting me know that I am not the only one living in a "ghettoplex" (yes, I have used that word many times, another moment when I gasped at the similarities between us), dealing with crazy tenants and trying to be somewhat of a decent mother and wife. Thank you for allowing me to read a little into a life similar to mine, and giving me a new perspective. Not that you had much choice in the matter, but thanks anyway! I have been managing for 2 years and have recently been playing the "oh, poor Jodee" card. Reading about your journies in this wretched yet needed buisness gives me some peace, knowing I am not alone. So from me to you, thanks, and I hope your not too freaked out by this point.
a fellow managing, mormon, mom,(Ok that was a bit corny)

Oops, I guess I got a little click happy, it happens.
I manage 19 in this complex, how about you? I used to manage 26 and they were a lot easier than the 19 crazy ones I have now, go figure. I hear ya on the house thing, I can't wait. It seems like we are the last people on earth that don't own a house. I guess not though!
Your kids are hilarious, thanks for sharing!
