1. A big leak in the kitchen ceiling, with an artsy speckling of mold. Nice.
This pic is from this morning, after the super made a big investigatory hole.
2. My book! I recently had poked around online, looking for a way to make my blog into a book (not a bookstore book, a scrapbook-y book). I kept stressing that one day I would make a stupid blogging mistake and inadvertently erase my family's history. I found a simple site and ordered my blog, from 2007-2009.

OMG. She was just always super cute, huh? That's from back in the day.

It was fun, despite some glitches on their site that made me nuts for a day or two. I can't wait to order 2010. From here on out I'll order one book for each year.
Speaking of books and writing, I'm enjoying learning how to write through blogging . . . but some bloggers start out as writers, and wow---there's a big difference. I've mentioned him before on the FB page (and maybe here too?)----but he has a new post today and it's worth reading and sharing. Go check it out: Fighting Monsters with Rubber Swords by Rob Rummel-Hudson.
Thank you for doing on the hard work for me by finding Blog2Print! I'm totally going to be a copycat.
ReplyDeleteThe blogs that are written by writers (however they became one) are like reading a never ending novel/editorial column that you just can't get enough of. There are a handful of blogs like this that I follow, the only ones of people I don't actually know. You fall into that category, I love your writing, your style, your love of sharing information, your photography skills, and of course your subject matter.
I read Rob's post today and shared on FB. He is an amazing writer that always makes me think, I like that. Your blog is equally as important, it always makes me laugh. Sorry about the water damage, that stinks...literally :)
ReplyDeleteDefinitely use Blog2Print---despite the temporary annoyance, the book is great. I feel a little less stressed that the internet will eat my hard work.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words about the blog :)
