Yes. I love our clouds here in the Northwest. Sunshine hurts the eyes, causes skin cancer, and creates a glare on my computer screen. I like clouds. Ever changing, providing much needed shade, and when the sunlight filters through them at just the right angle, the silver and golden lining is spectacular. So why do the radio announcers go ape with delight when the weather forecasters predict 90 degrees out? It's because they're sitting in an air-conditioned studio, and not actually out IN the sweltering weather, that's why. It's cloudy and cool and wonderful today, and I like it! I hope it stays like this all month! Being that it's June though, I doubt it, so I'll just enjoy what we have today.
Yesterday I created a webpage to share the Calendar Wheel that I made for my son. I had a lot of compliments for it in the past, so I decided to just make it available to the public. You can see it here: Calendar Wheel Or as with all my personal pages, you can follow the link in the left hand menu to the Heaven's Blessings Tiny Zoo webpage and find it there.
Today I've been trying to figure out this BlogExplosion.com stuff. Well I spent a small part of the day trying to figure it out. Some of it is sort of confusing, ALL of it is time consuming, but I did view a few interesting blog sites in my journey. I still haven't figured out how to earn points though, I think I have like 0.25 of a point... I don't think I have enough time in my day to make it work like they have intended. I created a banner according to their specifications, and uploaded that. But I don't know how that's supposed to help me either, I saw something like 1 point = 25 impressions, which I gather means that I don't get to display my banner unless I earn points, and earning points requires (apparently) many hours of "blog surfing" which I don't really have time for. And I read a post on one person's site that the people mainly just vote for their friends, and don't actually look at any other sites. So that seems a bit unbalanced also.
Anyway, I took the kids to the gym for exercise day again today. I think I re-injured my shoulder throwing a football to my son. He has a better arm than I do, that's for sure! But we had fun.
And now I'm trying to be patient and let my chicken pieces marinate in salt water, so I can make Jewish chicken for dinner. Or my variation of a Jewih Chicken recipe I found anyway. A kosher Jew might turn their nose up at it, I don't know. And my husband just got home from work so I guess it's time for me to get back to my work and get supper finished.
Blessings to you all!
