Skidboot the Dog

I know I already did task #6 but I found this last night and I just had to put it on my blog so all you animal lovers could watch it. This is an amazing dog and man! It is a little long so if you have dial up I wouldn't try to watch it.

Task 4 completed!

Well I got through number 4 with no problems! Here is my public feed address http://www.bloglines.com/public/shannonsdowntime
I found a blog from a Librarian that is from Florida looked like an interesting blog but I didn't get a lot of chances to look at it. Might be worth checking just to see what's going on at a library down in Florida.

TROUBLE, TROUBLE EVERYWHERE!!!!!!

Ok so I already got stumped on the 3rd task. I went and did the sign up thing at bloglines and it worked ok. Then when I went to try to copy the atom link it didn't work. First thing it didn't give me an option of copy link just copy shortcut which I tried. But when I got to my blog there is no add on the page. Someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

I'm also having big troubles at home. Our water heater had a huge malfunction on Tuesday and when me and the boys, with Mcdonald's bags in hand, opened the back door we encountered a FLOOD in the kitchen. I didn't know what was going on until I went in the utility room and Niagra Falls was coming out of the top of my water heater. I run next door because I have no idea where to turn off the water to the house. (Duh didn't need to turn it all off) Nobody home at the neighbors! Run back home and look around the water heater and find turn off to just the water heater! YA! So then the clean up begins. My husband had to work over(lucky man) so I had the kitchen and utility room pretty much water free when he gets home with a giant wet vac he got from work. Great all that hard mopping and squeezing for nothing! So he goes into our bedroom and looks in the closet, and there's more water in there! Carpet is soaked and there's also water in our bathroom. UGH! I didn't even think to look in there. So I got the wet vac and got back to work. My husband got the old water heater out and the new one in by 10:30. Pretty good timing. But too late for baths for the children so they go to bed stinky for the night.

Next day carpet is still soaked even though I used the wet Vac on it 3 0r 4 times. We get Steamatic over and they let us rent giant air blowers and even bigger Dehumidifier. The air blowers are working great! Carpets already almost dry.

This was a huge disaster but on a good note I'm defianetly getting new floor put down in the kitchen and Utility room.

I DID IT!!!!!!!

Creating this blog wasn't so hard! It was just finding the time to do it while I was cooking supper and stopping the arguements going on around me. No Problem!

As for the 30 positive uses of social networking tools I totally agree. There's always going to be some positive and negative things to anything on the internet. It is just supervising children and being a parent who cares and letting them get the good out of the internet.

OK of to eat supper. Then on to put up the christmas tree! HERE COMES SANTA CLAUSE, HERE COMES SANTA CLAUSE! We love christmas music at our house!
