Where have I been?!?!

Needless to say the last several weeks have been really hard. My wife who I will leave nameless (but her feet are in the attached picture) took over the family blog. I originally started that blog, "Tanner Family Blog" as a powerful way to keep in contact with friends and family. Now under the guise of Tanner Family, she writes and writes stuff that only her friends would read. To make matters worse, not only did she take over my blog, she upgraded the blog from super blogger to professional blogger. When that happened I lost my username and password…that really hurt me, both emotionally and…well, it really only hurt emotionally. Because of this I titled today’s blog, “Where have I been?” ...after holding a two week grudge with my wife (see feet in attached picture), I realized that upgrading the blog didn’t delete my login info, but rather I just forgot my username and password and was not logging in correctly...Now two weeks later…I am happy to announce…I remembered it…and I am back in business.

Feeling Alone Can Really Hurt!!!

Today was a difficult day. I played basket ball for 2-1/2 hours this morning and then I watched Jake for the rest of the day. Jake is a great kid and love spending time with him, but sometimes I feel that I am all alone. Jake and I have visited my great grandmothers alone.

Today, when it came time to clean the house I did that alone. When we had friends over earlier tonight I held Jake while Brittany got the fondue ready. I held Jake alone while the fondue was warming up. Jake needed his diaper changed. Before Brittany came and got Jake back from me I changed his diaper. It is so rewarding to feel needed, but it is so difficult to hold Jake, clean the house, wash the dishes, and change diapers. I hope tomorrow will be a better day. In Elders quorum tomorrow I will, again, be alone with Jake. Jake comes with me each week to Elders Quorum. We go alone...while Brittany teaches her primary class...she gives her primary kids candy, too. Brittany never gives Jake or me candy...if she did we would proably have to eat it alone.

Rafael I am coming to see you!!

Sometimes blogging can be difficult. The difficulty with blogging is having to leave my computer and my blog alone while I am at work. Last year before I blogged all day long, I went on a vacation to Palm Springs. I love Palms Springs. I love the palms and the springs. I love blogging too. This is a special year...I turn 26 and started my new blog, "brandonisblogging". In a week I am going on vacation again to Palm Springs. Hopefully, I will meet Rafael Nadal for second time (the first time is illustrated above). Other than starting this blog and blogging all day long, I enjoy meeting famous tennis players from Spain who are ranked #2 in the world and have a winning record against Swiss tennis phenoms like Roger Federer. Good luck Rafa at the Pacific Life Open 2007. I wish you well on my blog and hope to wish you well in person while I cheer, "Vamos Rafa!!"
