I think my computer is sweating.... it's extremely hot and I have no a/c at the house yet. I'll be calling about getting something installed ASAP. I've put some blinds and curtains up to keep the sun out of my huge picture windows, but the sun only comes in that way after 4pm anyway. Must have a/c.

Anyway, I won't be online as much over the next few days though Em is going back to daycare tomorrow morning. Too much heat isn't good for the computer and I'm going to try to keep it off as much as possible.

This post has a dual purpose, to yet again show off my daughter and also to promote another small writing gig that I got. I am one of the bloggers at Dot-Mom and my latest blog is about Em's light-switch talents. You'll have to read the blog and watch the video to see what I'm talking about.

It's the most recent post, but it might not be when you go to read it (there are other people writing for the blog). So it's the post called Sometimes Simple is Best.

If you click on the Posts by Terri category, you can read just my stuff. Only 3 in there so far.... gotta write more.....

Is it wrong to cut down a tree simply to improve the view? It's not a huge tree, but a young cluster of box elders that is smack dab in the center of my wonderful view out the 8-foot wide picture window in my living room.  It look out over my [horribly overgrown] backyard, my back field and the big field beyond that.  Now I just see a bit of field, and a bunch of leaves.

It certainly would be a suitable inaugeration for my new chainsaw, and i would certainly save the wood for the stove. No waste.

So am I a bad Pagan for not loving this tree?

I finally got some of my photos out of the camera, and wanted to share a quick one of the late sunset behind the trees of the back field.
