I really appreciate you letting me know. Thank you.
Okay. I know you have heard this one before, but I can not NOT mention it. Especially when we are talking about kids and getting back to school.

I don’t know about you, but I think one of the cruelest parts of going back to school is that it comes just after I have really settled in to living without a watch for a good portion of the day….
There are so many little details you need to take care of to prepare to go back to school. There are things you need to do. There are things you need to find or buy. There are appointments to be…

Does your to do list beat you up just a bit each day? Or maybe you already gave up on to do lists because they were just one more stress you decided you could eliminate.

I have missed you all.
Sometime early in the month, I think while working in the garden, I herniated a disc in my lower back. When I sit, the disc pinches my sciatic nerves. These are nerves that…
Turning the Tumblr Page Again
I have not really known how to effectively use tumblr. I set the account up and set it up to pull the feed from Laurel Plum Online per a suggestion I found somewhere and just forgot about it for a long time. You can peruse the original account. Maybe it will encourage you to stop by the site to participate.
Then I remembered that it was there and thought it would be a neat place to put all of the more random personal things I was always writing in draft form, but never published on the site because it did not fit the reference format I realize I have going. I have since set up Laurel’s Asides to serve that purpose.
I think I now have two effective ways to use tumblr more effectively.
First, I will use it to continue to add Sites To See in a less structured format than the weekly edition I was using on Laurel Plum Online that so messed up the search function on the site. So I will embed a tumblr feed on the site to share all of the wonderful things I find using an additional tumblr account. Interested? Take a peek and watch it develop. Laurel Plum Recommends These Sites To See.
Second is another suggestion I recently found. It is a way of saving all of the sweet (or constructive) comments I have found around the net about me or my sites in one place. There are not many, but I can see several advantages to having them localized. Yet another tumblr account. You can take a look at them, too. What People Are Saying About Laurel Plum Online.
