Dear Reagan: More Nothingness

I've developed a new addiction. It's an app on my phone called "Draw Something". I got pretty obsessed with it for about a week, and was playing it instead of doing things around the house, like talking to the family. I was playing probably 20 different people, so having to keep up was a bit of a challenge. When it started keeping me up at night, I decided I had to do something. I cut out everyone I didn't know, so now I'm only playing Brooke, Maddie, Aunt Cindy, Uncle Bob, and my friend Keron. As you can see below, I'm an excellent artist. No one ever has any trouble guessing my pictures. (By the way, Maddie's username is RocksAreGood). Don't ask. I have no idea.

Maddie went to the orthodontist this week, and is excited to report that she may FINALLY be getting her braces off! She returns in 7 weeks, and if all looks good they'll make an appointment to remove them. I didn't realize that it had been 3 years! Needless to say, she's very excited!

You won't believe this, (unless we've already told you) but Bill and cyclone don't live here anymore!! I got tired of them not being fed, except by me, and smelling their stinky cages, so I told Dad I was going to put them on Craigslist. It made me think of Nina giving Muffin away at her garage sale. I had to laugh. Anyway, we ended up giving both of them to Ariel. Their whole family had been wanting a snake, so they were excited to get Cyclone, but they decided to take Bill also. I sent them away with an, "Are you sure?" and a "Good luck!" Maddie has been to Ariel's since then, and said they look much happier. Not sure how she could tell, but I'll take her word for it.

We had our typical Valentine's Day meal this year on the day before Valentine's day. Just wasn't the same without you, but we did have fun. Everyone made fun of me, as usual, for decking out the dining room, but I loved it. I even had a Valentine tree. Geema and Keypa bought us a little light-up Christmas tree for as a gift for hosting Thanksgiving. They brought it over sometime after the first of the year. It's so pretty that I think I'm going to leave it out all year and decorate it for the different seasons. I put little plastic hearts all over it for February. I should probably take them off now that it's March. Haha!
