To My Blog Readers

First of all I am grateful for all who read my blog and find it funny. Generally my blog is funny because most people understand how life isn't easy. They like to know that they are not alone in this world. That there are others who have children who cause destruction . There are others who can no longer take the dirt, dust and milk stains embedded in their carpet and wants something easier to take care of. There are some people who can relate to driving a broken car around town that smokes and are frustrated because they don't have the money to fix it. Yes, these oddly enough are problems that people in the world have. Well my "problem" last week was CHANGE. Changing and moving to another state so that my family could have a better life. So, when the van breaks down we have enough money to repair it. So, we have a larger home with a backyard to let the kids run wild. So, we don't feel so closed up in a small space. That location would have been Texas. It turns out that we can't sell our house right now and will have to wait until 2011. So, these have been our plans for years and we feel that those are excellent reasons to move away. Even the school systems in Texas are outranked from California.

Unfortunately, someone read this blog and only read this statement :
Despite how intelligent I feel Tom is...and how many raises and promotions he has received it is not working for us.

Now, anyone else that read my previous blog read this : This blog is about change. My blog was not about Tom. Was it about what a failure I feel he is because Tom is unable to provide for his family? No, if I was going to say that....I would have typed that. If I wanted to say I want a Mercedes Benz SUV and a house in Greenbrook I would have written that. I did not write that. I love and appreciate my husband . I tell him that everyday....not monthly or weekly I tell my husband EVERYDAY that I love and appreciate everything he does for me. Tom is working very hard to provide for his family...and despite that fact that he happens to be the most intelligent person I know or anyone else knows..CALIFORNIA is not working for us. What is wrong with moving out of state and having a better life somewhere else ?

Okay, enough said. I was going to make my blog private, but so many people enjoy reading it ( including writers in Hollywood) I have decided to keep my blog up and running. I appoligize to anyone who thought I was trashing my husband. If you don't understand what I am writing about feel free to comment on my page. That is what the comment section is for. You can also email me or write me or even email sister....or even read my sisters blogspot page. Her page is very much like mine.

Have A Nice Day !

it's too bad people have to make your blog about themselves rather than YOU. It is YOUR blog.

I love your blog that you don't write in nearly often enough and I love you and your family and I think if you feel Texas is the right place for your family, you will be happy there.

And that is my run-on sentence for the day.

Biz I love you too !!

hmmm...I'm guessing whoever said that doesn't know you very well. You are always saying how smart Tom is, how he can do anything, and how much you love him. You practically ooze admiration, all deserved of course!

p.s. can I be a little bit happy that you aren't moving quite yet? At least not until we go get some frozen yogurt together.

Anyone who knows you knows you would never trash your dear sweet husband. That's lame.
California is too expensive all around, even if you are rich. You go where you will be happy. We will still read you and love you.
(going private, however, you get to find out how many people REALLY love you. it's like a love affair.)

Well, I, for one, am very sad you won't be moving to Texas yet. I suppose a girl can only wish.

Gretchie! This is the first I realized your blog, I think?!! I love hearing your thoughts as It makes me realize I'm not crazy, cause life can be so crazy.
It's great you are thinking of your family and future, shouldn't we all be doing that?
Life is always an adventure and I'm happy to have participated in yours, even if it is at a distance. You rock, lady and you have an amazing husband and family. Be proud! Love you, Gretchie...take great care

Dear Gretchie:

I'm back.
i am your #1 fan! i was crushed when you deleted the comments I added earlier. Just because i thought your blog(and you i guess) was sad and you were ungrateful, you should not delete my comments.
Your husband Tom is a patient fellow.....

#1 You were crushed...I can't remember what you said...but fellow is a really cheesy word...
