edited to add:  look around - i think all of your old favorite stuff is still here and now there is also lots of new stuff.  and don’t miss the page links above my header at the very top of the site - that’s where you’ll find all of my links that you used to see on the right.  to comment click on “comments” to email me privately click on “call me crazy” on the “silly me” page.  if you can’t get something to work - let me know.

because i’m a goofball.

i went public with my new site without realizing it.  

so, welcome. 

to my always crazy. always in-progress life.  can you tell i hate to be stagnant?

anyway, made the change because this is free and i didn’t want to go back to blogger.  i also wanted my own joyfulchaos not widebody’s (inactive, might i add!) site as my parent site.

i’ve been working for days.  days i tell ya.

because there are quirks when you import - like all of my pictures are now HUGE (typepad evidently resized them for me) and i have to go back and resize every one of them by hand and then reupload them.

and another thing - those of you who already know me and followed every joyfulchaos jump i’ve made - and there have been several - sorry - you’ll see that sallyann is posting and i’m talking about pearl.  and i’m sure you’re saying to yourself, “who the heck are these people?”  it’s still us.  pearl is a nickname my husband has had since… like, middle school.  and sallyann was a name my daddy called me my whole life.  still does sometimes.  kinda fond of it.  (that and sallygoodin’)  oh, yeah, and see our children’s names are disappearing too.  huh.  well.  i read a post a while back (that i can’t find now) about how a student at a college that was doing a research project emailed her to let her know that with just a little work she was able to find her home address.  creepy.  now, i know none of you are coming to get my babies, but it freaked me out a little.  and since i’m trying to get seen more, at the same time i’m going to hide more.  so please, when you comment - leave our names out.  or i’ll be forced to hunt you down.  ok, not really, but i will edit your comment or delete it.  yeah. 

okay.  i think that’s all.  having said all that - enjoy!
