Just some odds and ends right now as I am home yet again with a sick Busy Boy. I think he has bronchitis, but, I'm getting worried since he's missed 4 days of school already this year.
- Please go give Grandma K some encouragement as she fights breast cancer (and is winning).
- Don't forget to enter the Presto contest on GenBetween for a chance to win an HP Presto! and a 3 month subscription. Hurry! The deadline is Sunday, September 16th, at midnight CST.
- Hal Runkel, author of the book Scream Free Parenting (that mysteriously showed up at my door, hint? Hmm...) will be in Nashville, TN on Thursday night (9/13) to speak at the Barnes and Noble Cool Springs location at 1701 Mallory Lane in Brentwood at 7:00pm.. It's free!
I'm in the middle of the book right now, but, so far, I've really enjoyed it. It has helpful hints about keeping your own emotions in check, and, I've learned a lot about being "responsible to" your children rather than "responsible for" them, as well as "responding" as opposed to "reacting". You really ought to check it out.
- Techheads: Does anyone know if it's possible to change URL structure for my permalinks from the post number to the entry title?
Please contact me, and, use small words if this is something I can easily accomplish in Movable Type.

DO NOT JUMP ON THE FURNITURE! NO DRINK IN THE LIVING ROOM! WHY ARE YOU USING A PLUNGER AS A SWORD?
Oh ... excuse me, I didn't know you were reading. Thanks for the book recommendation, I'll surely look into that. I think I could benefit. Now where was I?
DO NOT PUT THAT TIC TAC UP YOUR SISTER'S NOSE! THAT IS MY FOUNTAIN POP!! NO ONE MESSES WITH MY FOUNTAIN POP.
WHAT? YOU DID WHAT? WHERE ARE THOSE SCISSORS??? THAT WILL TAKE A WHILE TO GROW OUT, YA KNOW. GET THE UNDERWEAR OFF THE CAT'S HEAD ... HE'S GETTING DIZZY.
I think I need that book. But then my girls might start worrying about me. (Not to mention my husband.)
Hey, lady.
I need some advice: Am I being a crappy parent? I'm insisting that my 2-year-old wear panties when she's in our yard because it's not a private yard. Some folks are saying that I'm making her think her body is "dirty and awful."
What do you think?

In WP you click a little radio button and Presto! it changes. That is all I know :).
(This may be completely irrelevant)
In Wordpress it is under "options" and then "permalink".

Must be a good book, there are 7 copies and 20 holds (one mine) in our library region.
Hell, I thought the Presto was something George Foreman would cook with. I didn't enter: I don't know anybody who doesn't have a computer.
Now I better go cheer up Grandma K.
Hope that BB feels better soon - 4 days is a lot already - let's boost that immune system!
Thanks for your encouraging words Busy Mom. I am going to beat this thing!
I can't see here, if this is wordpress or typepad. If it's wordpress, I can easily tell you how to do it. If so, just e-mail me and I"ll give you instructions.
I can't wait to hear your advice from that book....
I am going to order this book right now as I really think I need it. Your book recommendations have yet to fail me :)
