Well, actually, that’s not REALLY the case…it’s just that my get up and go…got up and went and was last seen snoozing by an all-night Starbucks shop. 🙂
The good news is my family is entirely healthy, yay! The bad news is yep, I’m relapsing a tad. But hey, so long as everyone else is okay, I’ll recover in my own time (ideally by the 4th, as the Ling Clan is dying to see the fireworks extravaganza. Wheeee. Not).
What else? Well, all 4 kids are building their own sites, yay! Honorable Boy 1 and Honorable Boy 2 are using Wix.com – it’s a drag-and-drop flash thingee that makes site creation very easy. And the girls have their own blogs that are coming along most peachy indeed.
Me, well, work-wise…not much done today, alas. I have several work-in-progress lenses for the RocketMoms I need to finish, I need to complete the Income Fitness book, and overall…things are tiring but doable.
Oh yes! HB1 came to me in tears 15 minutes ago. He devised an idea for a random page on his site, and HB2 wanted to do the same thing. "That’s copying!" cried HB1, leaving me to defuse the situation. I simply do not allow for sibling rivalry in my family, and whenever one kid wants to learn from another, I encourage that child to take on the roll of teacher.
In this case, I had to deal with his feelings of possession and "It’s MINE MINE MINE!" and redirect his emotions to, yes, the idea is mine, and when I share it, it’s still mine but now I can get other ideas from how my brother tries it out.
Very tiring indeed. But definitely worthwhile.
And that was me day,
