One wonders what came first -- some earnings or the big expenses that led to more earnings?

I figure it's easy to make silly mistakes when you're grading thirty papers, so I didn't make a big deal out of it to my kid. But I admit the apostrophe did make me cringe:-).

OH dear. Head hurts. For both of you!

I had something like this happen to my son a few months ago. The teacher sent a letter home saying "Xander don't finish work because he says he don't understand. Please talk to him.

So, I sent it back to her marked up with red ink!
I never heard back from that teacher. lol

Thanks very much, Justine!

Thanks! I like this script, but for now I'm going to use it only for headers, and not put it on the buttons. I think they're more readable that way.

2012-04-16T08:27:48.387-07:00

Yes :) And the script font on this blog looks good, too...I recall we discussed a different script on some buttons that was less readable for me.

Yes, it doesn't really matter if we read eBooks or printed books as long as you enjoy this activity.
I got my favorite titles from All you can books... I found out about this site randomly from a friend who loves to read a lot and he knows many useful things regarding this subject.

Oh, well, Impy has ALWAYS been a good dog. He already passed his advanced class, but since he's my daughter's dog, she handled him there. The only problem with Impy is that he's so smart he gets bored, and will refuse to cooperate after a while-- he gives you this, "Stupid human, I already DID that trick" look, and flops down on the floor. Hero is actually easier to train in that regard, because he's so dumb that you can keep him interested and excited with a pocketful of treats and a lot of praise.

I don't know why they sell differently, Jody. Maybe I should redo the cover on the poor seller and see if that helps. But I don't think the cover on the good seller is all that awesome either *shrugs*.

"Hotter name"? Do you publish under a pen name? And if so, what is it?

That does make no sense! Especially if they have similar covers and blurbs?

They are a very go-to publisher! I wish they had been able to shoulder more of your publishing burden, but you're doing fine anyway :)

I had my "office" in a crowded corner of my bedroom for years and years, so I feel your pain. I'm just lucky to have found exactly what I needed, housewise, when I moved. This house couldn't work better for us if we'd built it from the ground up.

Some day I might have a real live office sighs

Yay, Karen, glad to hear it. I set this up when we moved, too-- before this I had a desk crammed into the corner of my bedroom, which was not nearly so satisfactory!

Just lovely. I'm setting up my office now (sin...

Just lovely. I'm setting up my office now (since we just moved) and you've given me some good ideas :-)
