And my Wordpress theme is a thing of the past. I’m trying out this barebones theme now (I couldn’t take the Butterflies! and Lights! and Color! of my last one) while I decide what I’m going to use next. It’s about time for rearranging the site again, and I’ve just finished my last big project of the semester (I really am in grad school, despite ignoring most of my readings) so I have a little time before I start my pre-session class, which will actually require me to work.
Anyway, check back, I have a video of Maya pretending to be a rock star uploading this very minute. I know that parents shouldn’t jump to conclusions when kids are little, but Maya really likes music, in a way I haven’t seen in Ben, anyway. She sings with this horrible backyardigan karaoke machine she got from my brother at Christmas (thanks Nick), but she also sings and accompanies herself on the piano (with plinking, not pounding), and today she spent more than a moderate amount of time playing the harmonica. I’m wondering what is an acceptable time to start lessons on something? Or, to rephrase, what would a Japanese mother do?
Also, my ads went away with my theme, and I won’t be putting them back. Long have I cluttered my site with Google Ads, but after nearly 4 years of blogging I have made $99.74, which I won’t even see until it reaches a $100 (they don’t send checks smaller than that). That averages out to $2/month or so, which doesn’t even pay for the site hosting, and it’s a pain in my neck. So, until I make it big and can manage my own ads, I am completely ad-free and plan to stay that way. Enjoy.
