Life in the present & My Dear Husband (DH)

As we wait for the answers to some big questions my lovely husband's birthday will be here in a few days.

The best present I could possibly give him are answers; when we will be heading out, when we will be able to fix the plumbing, when we will make it to warm weather and friends on the West coast.

Sadly, I do not have the answers right now and we will have to be patient together. He is usually very patient. I am, on the other hand, usually patient enough to bring the cookies out of the oven a little doughy in the middle..

Our roles have changed for the moment, I am being the patient one, and he is pacing back and forth.

Thank you XOMISSE!

This #BlogLife post was not on the itinerary but I had to take a few minutes to write up this supplemental post!

XOMISSE, is an amazing blog designer who takes time out of her busy schedule to provide blogging tutorials for those who want to be more hands on with their blogs, like me.

Don't get me wrong, she uses a lot of coding and I've learned to use the notepad program for my HTML code before I put it into my template, but her tutorials are very thorough and simple enough for those of us who haven't been to webdesign school.

Robert's Modern American Dream

There are a lot of people out there who feel like they want to do something to better the world. We would like to talk to all of them and see what they have in mind. 

The trouble with that is we can not talk to everyone face to face. So for those who have something they would like to tell us but we can not get to you for an interview we will send a little E-mail questionnaire.

So I thought that before we start asking America these questions I would answer them for myself. 

What you need to know about gadgets in Blogger

What are gadgets?

If you are logged into your dashboard on blogger.com there is a page called Layout.

In the layout page you will see several options all over the page that say add a gadget.

But what are they? Why would you use them, and how to know which ones to use when and where can be a headache!
