			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>“Oh bother,” said Winnie-the-Pooh, “whatever shall I do? I have to many thoughts floating in my head and they are all running into each other, making a terrible racket.” Well, that’s probably what he would have said if he were a 36-year old woman who looked like me.</p>
<p>Since my Gymboree website closed down two years ago, I haven’t done much blogging (sorry, Grandpa). Part of the problem has been indecision. At any given time, I am in the middle of a few major projects and several minor ones, and I can never decide whether the major ones should be spun off to their own blogs or not. So far my strategy has been to start a new, single-topic blog for homeschooling, say, post once, and then let it sit there for a year and a half before finally deciding to let the domain name drop. Good plan, no? </p>
<p>So after having several silly, disposable blogs littering the internet and the dustbin of my brain, I have decided to just use this one blog that already has articles on it. At any given time, I am working on such disparate items as a) trying to find a house (again!!), b) trying to educate small children so they don’t grow up into easily swayed imbeciles, c) long-form writing projects for which I am still in the “research and education” phase with a little bit of actual writing, d) interior design research for the house I someday hope to live in for more than three years, e) organizing the home I currently live in and cooking for myself and the nine other people who live here, and f) trying very hard not to turn into any sort of –icidal maniac whatsoever. I plan to now clog up this blog with rambling blobs of mediocre, probably un-proofread writing on any/all of these topics. </p>
<p>Maybe I’ll see if there’s a way to make an RSS feed by blog category so people who are interested in screenwriting don’t have to listen to me complain about the way <a href="http://zillow.com" target="_blank">Zillow</a> simultaneously manages to have both the most current and out-of-date listings data of any housing place on the net. That is not a project for today, however, since it has the air of an item which should be easily scratched off the agent in three minutes or so, I <em>know</em> it will take a least three hours and I have other things to do. So now you know just how important your RSS feed comfort really is to me.</p>
<p>I am, however, going to go reorganize my blog categories a tiny bit and post a link to a great screenwriting site that my husband got me turned on to. Then – up and at ‘em! Thank you for sitting through the entirety of this terribly dull informational message.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I came across this website today called <a target="_blank" href="http://www.fatgirlgetsfit.com/">Fat Girl Gets Fit</a> and am rather impressed. It&#8217;s a completely simple concept, but the lady has done a really nice job with it. She&#8217;s got her original and current stats plus a graph to chart her weight loss all visible on the sidebar plus a bunch of other neat things. And she&#8217;s got a spot where you can sponser a pound, which I think is a completely hilarious idea in that ingenious sort of way. </p>
<p>Plus, I love the layout. Clean but fun and the exercising gal who looks like she&#8217;s exercising and praying for the weight loss dieties to shine on her is quite appealing (that&#8217;s probably a yoga pose that I know nothing about). At the moment, I&#8217;m on the all work-all-the-time/nursing-a-ten-month-old-walrus-baby (Henry, not a real walrus) diet so don&#8217;t really need any help in that dept., but now I&#8217;m sure I&#8217;m going to start wondering what else I could adapt for the idea. Hmmm, something to ponder in all my spare time&#8230;. <img src='http://shubinesque.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Anyway, just thought some of you guys who are in weight loss mode might find it encouraging/amusing. <img src='http://shubinesque.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
