Here are 8 random things, as I have been tagged by The Queen. I have no idea who to tag, since I’m very unpopular and have received my tag long past the induction of this meme and everyone has done it already.
1. I have no idea how to work this blog. I have to have Rob resign me in all the time because I can never remember my username or password. I’m sure it drives him nuts. Right now it is stuck in HTML mode and I don’t know how to change it back.
2. Once I tried to teach myself CSS. That’s the only thing that helps me out when things like my blog going wonky happen. I can do just enough simple code to make things post.
3. Elise’s picture is going to be posted on the Thursday Gratuitous Cute Kid Picture at Anti-Racist Parent tomorrow. That’s pretty cool.
4. I spent the whole morning cleaning up half full baskets of clean laundry.
5. I have a very messy house, and I cope by closing myself in here with the excuse that I’m watching my etsy store.
6. Olivia refuses to nap most days and in order for us to both get a break I let her watch TV.
7. I HATE it when I let Olivia watch TV.
8. I need to go to the grocery store really bad. We have no eggs, no fruit.
I’m impressed with the CSS. I’ve never had the nerve to try, although I do have a very cursory understanding of HTML.
My mother always fell asleep after lunch, so we had nap time as a matter of course until we were teenagers. Or sneak-off-and-read time. It was always my favorite time of day. I always just shut the door to the room (D1 takes hers in our room so as not to disturb D2) and ignore everything but loud crashes for two hours. So far they still both sleep most days, I suspect. But whatever it takes to keep Mom sane, I say.
