Technology is not one of my strengths, so don't be surprised if it takes me several weeks to get photos posted and have a "pretty" blog, but I have to start somewhere and I'm not afraid of baby steps.
Today I was more terrified than I have ever been, or at least in a very long time. Corndog, my 8 yr-old son, (you'll be formally introduced later) disappeared in Staples. I left him playing a game on a computer while I was looking at printers two aisles over. I ran through the store twice without seeing him. Then I had him paged, twice, and still no Corndog. At this point I was beginning to panic and feel sick to my stomach. I internally debated whether to call 911, or use the camera on my phone to start taking pictures of all the people in the store. I finally decided to ask a male to check the men's room, and found a store employee who checked for me. It turns out Corndog had an upset stomach and didn't have time to let me know where he was going before making a mad dash to the men's room. He was only "missing" for about 3 - 5 minutes, but it felt like an eternity. He's going to be fine once he gets over the creepy discussion about strangers we had in the car, but I'm afraid I may never be the same again.
On the up side, the new printer we bought works exactly as it should and I can now print wirelessly from anywhere in the house or yard. I'm sure this is just the technological intervention I needed to make me uber-productive when working from home.
