Forks, Thinking of Talking, Dictionary, How God Makes Little Girls

Noah likes to help set the table. When I ask him to put forks at the places, he will run to the drawer and grab a fistfull, then put a fork on top of each plate. I usually have to help him put away the extras, or they end up all over the place. He's also been copying words... (More)

One For All Universal Remote

One of my customers gave me an Amazon gift certificate for Christmas, and so I bought a geeky toy for myself ( One for All URC 8910 Universal Remote Control ), and a book for Heather and I ( Teach Them Diligently: How To Use The Scriptures In Child Trainin g). I haven't opened the... (More)

VPNC / Resolvconf / Set search string

I found what I would call a bug in resolvconf today, though probably most people don't run a VPN server like I wanted to, so no one ever noticed before. The internal DNS server at one of my clients somehow loses its connection to folks connected via the VPN. That is an unsolved... (More)

Random Stuff

Just when I thought I was a geek, the bar is raised... I forgot to post this a while ago: Tim Hawkins and the "homeschool family". Prairie Home Sausage is kind of funny - and has a picture of a really neat merry-go-round. Lastly, being... (More)

Christmas Present from Verizon

For some reason, Verizon thought it would be a good idea to reconfigure their network early morning Christmas Eve (or late the night before, I am not sure which). Unfortunately, they transferred me to a broken gateway, which has 3 minutes outages every fifteen minutes or so.... (More)

Jonathan In A Day

Yesterday, Jonathan did and said several things of note. He counted to 100 all by himself! (He still has to think really hard and is not consistent yet, but he did it once.) He asked how to spell "tub" and "bath" and then said,... (More)

Krypto Solver Usage

I have been looking through my web access logs trying to track down a pesky LifeType bug. And I came across someone who had used my Krypto solver one day and then tried to come back a couple days, but mistyped the URL as kyrpto, which of course didn't work. So, then he went to... (More)

Fun with Spam

I have been getting a bunch of spam through my contact form over the last couple of days, so I thought I would check out what they are trying to do. The domain's contact information is protected by privacyprotect.org, so we can't know who they are, though I filled out a form showing... (More)

Do Not Call Lists

We have been getting more and more sales calls lately. I try to take the time to report them to the do not call lists, both for our state and for the country. We are supposed to get $100 for each violation (where the caller pays $1000). But, I haven't ever gotten any money.... (More)

I'm Sorry, Your Product is Obsolete

This is what the HP technical support person said to me when I called about our printer. Our faithful HP LaserJet 6L, which was manufactured 10.5 years ago, and given to us 6(7?) years ago. It printed Mom's boarding pass just fine, and then one day later, all three indicator lights... (More)

November in a Nutshell

This month has been full, busy, and blog-sparse. Because we're actually living life instead of blogging about it! But here goes: Noah is experimenting more with sounds. He copies a lot. Still not much consistently, but here are some things we've heard him say:... (More)

Challenge Update

Normally, when we have an update to a post, we just put it in the comments, but since I've entered us in the 30-Day Challenge , here's a separate post to link up. Now before any other "challengees" faint when they see my pictures, I'll remind you that we have guests coming... (More)

30 Day Organizational Challenge

My friends Bonnie and Liz participated in the last Challenge, and quite intimidated me by doing so. But I put OrgJunkie's blog in my reader (one of only three strangers' blogs I read) and have slowly been gaining confidence. The real enouragement I give myself is to note what... (More)
