See my flickr page on the top right of my blog? It is supposed to show six pics from my Flickr account. As I type this it is only rendering two pics. Flickr is having a problem.

I upload two ways to my Pro Flickr account: via email from my iPhone or using Flickr uploading software from my laptop. Both used to work fine. Now the only recent photos showing up on my blog are ones that I uploaded via my laptop. None of the iPhone ones work. At least most of the time. Usually the first time you load my page all the pics are there, but when you refresh my blog, only the two are there. Ugh.

Also Flickr is not remembering my tags. I tagged all the photos from the Orlando trip to present with our names and none of them show up in my sets. Weird.

I wrote Flickr and they responded with the basic stuff. When I explained further, they referred my case to a senior tech person. That person hasn't gotten back to me yet.

Woo Hoo. We thought we had lost him forever. Yay. I actually cried tears of joy!

OMG OMG OMG!!!! We lost Ted E. Bear. This is the third year we have had him. Jack brought him home twice and this time Tor brought him home. Obviously I wasn't as hyper vigilante as I have been in the past.

The last time we saw him was at about 10:30 am at the soccer field on Saturday. I am pretty sure he made it to the car. I was absolutely certain he was in the car until we couldn't find him. I remember the boys fighting over him but maybe that was on the way to soccer instead of after soccer. Ugh. I called all the places we went and no bear so I got on eBay and bought three more just like him. Two for my boys to keep and one for the school. Ugh.

I already called the school and told Miss Kelly. She is so optimistic, I guess that is why she is such a great teacher. She said not to worry, worse has happened to Ted E. and that he would show up. I can't imagine worse than losing him. I think she was just trying to make me feel better.

Kids have been bringing him home for weekends for years. I can't believe WE lost him. Ugh. I actually had a panic attack this morning. OMG.

Monday

• @sarahgilbert wow, no kids :) that doesn't happen often. hope you can do something besides work. 11:52am
• @veroniquec I don't know, that is a pretty cool shirt. I think I would wear it for 3 days too. 11:56am

• and to think I was going to make him his favorite dinner -- Chicken Paprikash tonight :). 3:43pm

• having had multiple surgeries, vicodin was my friend, my very good friend. felt really weird getting rx for Brian & not popping one myself 4:41pm
• urge was very strong. Brian has actually hid them from me. Originally thought that was extreme. Upon reflection. maybe not so extreme 4:43pm
• good thing I am nursing. I may screw up myself, but wouldn't intentionally do that to 6 mo old baby :). 4:44pm

We had a busy weekend. On Saturday Liv was baptized. She was wonderful. We had a really nice reception here at the house after. It was a great day. Then on Sunday evening we went to Blaze like we did last year. Brian and Liv went for the first time. We had so much fun.

We also ate well this weekend. We took Liv's Nona Eleni to Niko's on Friday night and to Lefteris Gyro II on Sunday. It was nice to have Greek food twice this weekend. We had Liv's reception catered to by our local pizzeria (lemon chicken, penne ala vodka etc.) and got her cake at Lulu's. It was yummy.

It was really sad not to have my mom at the baptism, I missed her a lot and did my best not to cry, but of course I did. My friends were great. They were all so helpful. Eating at the Greek Restaurants with my cousin Eleni really made me think about my Mom too. She had been to both places and liked them. They made their dishes like she and my Yiayia did. Everything tasted like home, it was nice.

I love my iPhone. I have taken lots of photos with it.

Check them out here.

Haven't updated my blog lately. I have more Cape Cod pics, professional pics, Jack's first day of Kindergarten, Jack riding the bus, Tor's first day and his 3rd birthday party. There is also apple picking, soccer, swim lessons and the very last game at Yankee Stadium. Soon I'll have more Disney pics and Liv's baptism pics too.

Tor and Jack's friend Eason has pics from Tor's party on his blog though. Enjoy.
