One thing after another and it’s ALL good.

  • In case you missed the very strong hint in my post about The Homeschool Toolbar, you should totally go get one because my Ship Full O’ Pirates is featured in the “Blogs” button on The Homeschool Toolbar. :D
  • Momma Bug has bestowed on me my very first blog award.  I may give a speech.  I definitely want a mantle on which to set it, but I am totally gonna put it in the sidebar.  And, when I say “I am” – I, of course, mean “hey Cap’n come here!”
  • I have been asked to guest post on a regular, weekly (every Wednesday, be there, or be square!) basis at Frugal Hacks, the BEST frugal blog on the web!  Yes, starting THIS Wednesday!  Bookmark it!
  • Here’s another good thing.  I am happy that I am not a hat wearing person, ‘cuz I would need to buy some larger ones since I have really got a case of the big head right now, and it’s still our 30 Days o’ Nuthin’ so I can’t buy any large hats.  But, 30 Days or not, I still feel like a million bucks today!

Thanks Momma Bug, I am tickled to death that you enjoy my blog.  Thank you very much. (read that last bit in your Elvis voice.) If you’ve caught my excitement, you could add, “Mother Hen has left the building!”  (or at least taken leave of most of her senses, for the day)

I would, in turn, like to bestow this award on three of my favorite blogs.

Life in a Shoe – yes Kim, your children are weird interesting!

Engstrom Family Cerebrations – where they will soon add their fifth Pirate to their crew!

Home of the Petersonclan – home of the blue egg and the one-winged chicken!

Thank you for the award.
I knew my kids were weird, but what tipped you off? Was it the scary pets, the knives in the diaper, or something else that I don’t even know about yet?
And I thought your swollen head was due to the little statcounter mishap. That would certainly do it for me!

Well, yeah, the StatCounter thing started it off, but I got over that once the error was revealed. :D

WHAT? what was the stat counter mishap? I am dying to know!
My stat counter stays safely tucked away at the bottom of my blog just so I don’t GET a big head. (It’s not much to see, so it’s actually down there because it’s depressing to look at!

I’m listening…
;-)

Well, the StatCounter incident was a highly technical, mysterious, doubling of my stats for about a week and a half. I say mystery because at first we thought it was legitimate and were somewhat puzzled as to why my stats would just double overnight like that. Then The Cap’n got to thinking about some recent changes we had made in how the stats are displayed and once I had him change it back my glory-days were over, and my head returned to it’s previous dimensions, temporarily. If you want to see it you can click on the link in the left sidebar, the one that says View my Stats, but do it today or tomorrow. We got it adjusted back to normal on Wednesday evening. Crazy, huh?

Aw thanks…had an ultrasound yesterday and our little matey is looking so adorable it’s hard to wait for his arrival in Four Long Months. (Probably Five Long Months, knowing me!)

Blessings to you and yours,
Karen
