Things I’m Doing Lately:

1) Working through Eric Meyer on CSS. I’ve known bits and pieces of CSS for quite some time, but nothing like what I’m learning in this book. The book has several projects that you work through, using files that you download from the accompanying web site. I found this recommendation on Web Teacher’s blog and I highly recommend it if you’re interested in learning more. Web Teacher herself has some books that I’m planning on checking out. And she’s going to be in Chicago at BlogHer, so I hope I have the chance to introduce myself.

2) Fighting off getting The Boyfriend’s cold. I’m taking Cold Ease and Advil C&S, and hoping like hell it doesn’t hit me full force. I do NOT want to be sick for the holiday weekend. We have Tigers tickets, dammit! I can’t be sick!

3) Laundry

Things I’m Not Doing Lately:

1) Gardening (although I did pick up these little clay pots with seeds in the dollar section at Target a few weeks ago and now I have at least four little sunflower sprouts popping up. I also had basil and daisies, but Alex who defies the term “graceful cat” knocked them both over and now I have nada. I’m still have some seeds though, so I’m gonna try again.

2) Anything related to the upkeep of my house

3) Anything related to clearing out and redoing JM’s old room so I can move into it.

Lately, finding motivation is a crapshoot. Even moreso when I don’t feel 100%. Hopefully the upcoming long weekend will yield some results. You know, when I’m not at the Tigers game. ;)
