Excuses, Excuses

Now that it's summer (officially for me because school is over --except for the two weeks of summer school I'm teaching) I told myself that I would hopefully be able to blog more often. No one likes a lazy blogger. So not only is the challenge to get something posted, but also finding a topic. I could blog about the day last week when in one day my car's battery was dead before I went to work, and later that day, after having the battery replaced, I locked my keys in my car at Walmart. I could blog about that, but I won't since my second posting was about me leaving the lights on in my car. Since I only have four posts, including this one, another misadventure involving cars, keys, and batteries may make a reader wonder about the author's frame of mind when driving.

Maybe later this summer I will be able to blog while my chatty little offspring naps, but currently each nap so far is being utilized in trying to work on some continuing ed. credits I want to finish as soon as possible. Once chatty little offspring awakens, I close the laptop unless I want company and little fingers pressing any and all buttons he can while asking to watch movies or play games on the computer. When hubby returns from work, we have supper and hubby works on homework which usually entails him needing the computer. Another challenge in using the computer is that CLO has a very late bedtime, so usually by the time he falls asleep I'm either sleeping as well or heading in that direction.

So for anyone who has been keeping an eye on my blog and wondering where my posts are, I hope to be more diligent this summer and write about topics that are somewhat of interest. I can't promise, but I'll try.

Oh yeah--something I learned today. If you substitute applesauce for Crisco in a chocolate chip cookie recipe, you will have a somewhat healther cookie but one that tastes a lot like applesauce.

Funny how that cookie thing works (that statement made me laugh). BTW, I will be watching for more posts this summer. Maybe chatty little offspring will inspire some blog posts.

I'll be watching as well:) My own CLO watches a LOT of TV and his bedtime gets later and later (he's still up, in fact!) when I want the computer/internet to myself! BTW, I'm composing a rather long email to you- hopefully it'll be in your inbox very soon!
