Teamwork

I was willing to contribute. I had good intentions. My blogging prowess and technological savvy was growing by leaps and bounds. My SuperGeek husband had taken me to the on-ramp of the information superhighway (he hates that term) and now I was weaving through the traffic. Surely any monkey with cymbals could handle this! Installing widgets…no problem! Adding images…. piece of cake! If the mystical Oz behind the web curtain wants me to upgrade to the latest version of Wordpress, well, of course I will. Only the latest and greatest for me! SuperGeek had spent hours customizing our new blogs, and now I would make them even better! What could possibly go wrong? I think this says it all. Actually it only takes ONE harmless flake. An entire day, and hours of tech support later, SuperGeek is speaking to me again and has restored BOTH of our blogs which were annihilated by my innocent upgrade. For the two of you who have been reading my blog, yes there are a few posts missing. I will hopefully get some semblance of these posts back up soon. I’ll be sticking to the posting and pictures from now on, thank you

and you can’t get him off the screen. Read the rest of this entry »

Let me preface this by saying I am a VERY conscientious mother. I am actually paranoid. Well, the lesson of this story is that it is not beyond even the most neurotic mother to sometimes make a fatal error of judgement. (That is what I tell myself anyway). Just such a lapse occurred when Mastermind, my 6yo asked me if he could play with the hot-peppers. Okay, this is a no-brainer, of COURSE you don’t let children play with hot peppers! Why would ANYONE in their right mind do this!! Here’s the story.
