Sniffle, Sniffle, Snuff, Snuff.....:(

Hhhhmmmm.... the amazing, still baffling world of blogging never ceases to amaze me! For the past week, and a little more, we've been trying to set up this "amazing tool" called a blog. For days and days, it was completely beyond me how easy it was to blog. Now, all of a sudden, the gods of blog (good name for a band there) decided that it's dreadfully easy to do. Um, ok.....? Thank you, G of B.
Guess who, it's Pat again. I was avoiding having to sit down with Kindred and patiently, because that's my biggest character strength, show him how easy it is to blog. Butthey, now, for the first time in my short life as a mother, I can promise him something that's actually true. But the Gods of good health have not been looking lightly on my red-headed cherub. He came down with a dreadful cold yesterday which was made increasingly irritating b/c it was the first homeschooler skate of the season and he really wanted to be there. He finds it frustrating that I'm not the kind of parent to expose him to the masses when he's suffering the ill effects of accumulation of mucus in a variety of body parts. Trop le mauvais. As the day progressed, he gradually, under the influence of organic hot lemon, oil of oregano, and GASP, an Advil, gave into the fact that yes, he has a COLD!

We generally allow ourselves a day to completely collapse on the softest surface available, cat or no cat, and wallow in our illness. After that, it's all a matter of positive thinking. Works for us.

So, Kindred may actually start contributing to my blog in the near future. ;) Other than that, I'm somewhat pleased and smug to see that I figgured this out on my own. Chalk one up to my intellect and self-confidence. (Gods here: Little does she know that it's just a matter of entering mundane information that very few people actually care about or read all the way through, but we'll string the poor mortal along for awhile before we mess with the blog in some complicated and unfigureoutable way).

TaTa for now. *P
