We have another birthday party to attend this weekend. Can I just tel you how happy I am that so far I’ve known all the parents at the parties he’s attended, so I actually have fun too?

Okay, I’m just testing. I think I like this better, at least for now. Tweak tweak tweak, don’t mind me.

Wow, that was a fun weekend. As a grand finale, there as a DOWNPOUR and then the skies cleared. I don’t think they held the starburst festival at all over the weekend; I’ll have to keep an eye on the paper to see if they reschedule it. It’s so close to the 4th that they might not – unless Leominster doesn’t have anything planned for the 4th.

I really should look into joining one of the committees that plans this sort of thing. Well, I will if I don’t end up working a billion miles from home.

p.s. I don’t like the new blog design. I’m going to change it tonight or tomorrow night.

Okay, I’m NEVER getting a red tomato on my patio tomato plant if the SUN doesn’t come out. We need some warmth, people. The thermostat in my bedroom said 58 this morning…inside the house. (Say that with a voice like you’re doing the tv ads for a horror movie…”It’s only 58 degrees….INSIDE THE HOUSE!”

It seemed like as good an evening as any to play around with the blog template. I think the more familiar I get with it, the more creative I can be. Of course, I’m not graphic designer (gee, really?) so it’s not as gorgeous as some of the blogs out there.

I hope to be able to get mine as good as some of the ones I’ve seen: I think I’m going to just have to bite the bullet and figure out how to use Fireworks to slice up graphics so I can have the look I want. Either that or work with some of the BirchBark graphic partners to see if they’ll do it for me for free.
