The post idea I had for today sounded good in my head, then as I began typing it out it sounded more and more dumb. I couldn’t drag it out to a full post and there wasn’t any interesting angle to spin. Essentially it was about going to the store to get my daughter some lip balm.
Where does that leave me? It’s already late in the day. I have to leave very shortly to pick the kids up from school. Upon returning home I will try to put Tevye down for the nap he skipped so I can focus my attention on helping the kids with their homework. Then a little after 4 after Laura gets home I am taking Ciaran out to a Cub Scout activity – his first. When we get home there won’t be much time because there’s bedtime routines to work on and by the time I will be able to sit down and type again my brain will be mush.
What to do – I could use one of the NaBloPoMo prompts but that would necessitate a full blog post, some thought, which I don’t have a heck of a lot of time for. 15 minutes before I need to leave the house as it is right now. I have a few blog posts in my drafts section, but again they need more time and attention than I have at my disposal.
Here I am with another “placeholder” and lame post simply to get something up to keep my NaBloPoMo streak alive. This is an example of the type of post I hate to write, but warned would come when I started on this venture earlier this month. Thankfully we’re almost halfway through the month and this only the second time I’ve punted. Hopefully I’ll be able to work on those posts in my drafts folder tomorrow.
