...if it looks like I'm doing weird stuff to my blog design, that's because I'm doing weird stuff to my blog design. It's all apart of this TypePad book, making sure I understand some things fully so I can document them. Instead of fiddling with my design in a saved folder, where no one could see it, I thought it would be way more fun to do it here.
(Also, I kind of accidentally may or may not have deleted my main design and accidentally installed this one, and now I'm too tired to go back and change it. Or something like that.)
Anyway, bear with me--the design may be doing lots of funky things in the next few days.
Your head is filling so full with TP info it might just explode. As long as it's on the page, right? :)
What's the deadline for a completed manuscript? Inquiring minds wanna know!
Can't wait to see what's different next time I pop in; a reader just isn't satisfying enough when I know there's monkey business going on.

I noticed! But you could wear a paper bag and still look awesome...

We'll keep coming back regardless of what you're wearing. BTW, prayers going up right now for your babies. I completely resonated with your last post and the attitudes of us mamas and our children.

Prayers are coming your way!

that's the nice thing about bloglines - I'm not thrown off by new designs. :)

Hey. I like! The tag line is very funny.
Sending up prayers and sending over hugs to all of you. Swine flu is rather awful. 6/9 of us succumbed and it was a bad, bad time.

Thanks, friend! I'll give a long, interesting-to-nobody-but-my-mother update on the book very soon.

I have never used so much hand sanitizer IN MY LIFE.

At least you are attempting it-- My techy skills are a fraction of what an amoeba's must be like. And I can't afford to pay someone to change mine right now. I was so shocked when a sweet cyber girl offered to help me!!!! :)

Happened upon your blog through a link on a friends. Love it! I wish your family a speedy recovery from swine flu. Here in England, Tamiflu is pronounced Tammy flu.

We don't really come to see your house - we just come to visit. :) Prayers for the kiddos and mom/dad - hope you all get some restful sleep!

Seriously, Shannon, who ever does that? *cough*
:D Love the tagline!

Doing funky and weird things to a blog design is all part of the fun anyway. I do it all the time. I try not to do it to much though because then there would be a new layout every day.

I pray your kids are waaay better by now. What fun to read your experiences with Typepad and working on your blog. I set mine up myself, too, and it took me so long I felt like a dunce. Those great people who answer questions for the Typepad Knowledge Base got a steady barrage from me.
I like the new look!
