One of the kids comes in and announces, “We’re crushing yogurt cups.” :blink: “I hope [...]

Did you? Believe it or not, WordPress needs another update!! I have eight WordPress blogs, so updating them all is a chore. (I always make backups first- that’s the real chore, actually).

Seriously, I am. For one, I have about a dozen floating around the house, attached to various computers (and some I have as extras, “just in case”). Others- broken ones- I have stuffed in a box in my cabinet. I JUST CAN’T bear to throw them away! :cwy: And perhaps the most compelling reason for [...]

It’s just amazing how having kids multiplies your “stuff.” When my husband and I married, the only electronics we had to our name was a stereo system, an iron, and a toaster. Oh, and 3 can openers that we got as wedding gifts. That was IT. Now, we have, like, half a dozen computers, as [...]

Having Problems with Themes
