    Learning Styles Clickbait, Part 1

    Learning Styles Clickbait, Part 1

    I’m back at it with another post for March! And I’m writing this on a day/week where my eyes are particularly dry and kinda killing me. I’ve got my font/menus way enlarged to compensate, and I’m also going to keep this short. You’re here for learning styles, right? I get this question a lot, and […]

    Trick Question

    For today’s post, I’m going to keep it short…and see if I can practice with some type of question block, for my “learning WordPress” journey. So here’s a thing about me: I think a lot. Even this quest of “write a short blog post to practice” took me into a Google rabbithole, because: What even […]

    International Women’s Day 2022

    International Women’s Day 2022

    Hello! It’s me again. I told you I’ll be blogging through the ides of March and here’s day 2. This post is a little bit about learning WordPress (that eternal, elusive goal…) and a little more about International Women’s Day (and robots). Let’s get the WP stuff out of the way — here’s my latest […]

    …and we’re tweeting!

    …and we’re tweeting!

    I just did a Google search for “automatically post WordPress to Twitter” and found a slew of confusing results and random plugin recommendations. Turns out it’s probably easier than I thought; my WordPress.com dashboard guided me to the “publicize” feature and I just connected Twitter. Let’s see if this post shows up. You’re welcome for […]

    The Ide(a)s of March

    The Ide(a)s of March

    Yes, this title of this post is a play on words — and as this History.com article highlights, many of us are scared of the ideas of March (whatever “ides” are). The ides of March…or March 15th, to be specific…don’t have to be bad or scary. In my case, they may still be scary. But […]

    One Year with Cheyenne

    One Year with Cheyenne

    #GotchaDay We finalized adoption paperwork and brought home Cheyenne one year ago today (February 28th, 2021). At least, I think it was a year ago. Time is weird these days. I’m trying to get better at blogging, so this is a “you have 5 minutes left” reminder to myself to get some photos up of […]

    fire, part 2: everything is terrible and will also be okay

    fire, part 2: everything is terrible and will also be okay

    I really thought, “this is it. I’m going to write a blog post about the fire, and then I’ll feel like a weight has been lifted, and I’ll magically move on with my life and be productive.” That didn’t happen, and sitting down to write has felt more like a chore than something I do […]

    fire, part i (alternatively titled: wtf)

    fire, part i (alternatively titled: wtf)

    I’ve been writing this post in my head since Thursday, December 30th, 2021. When I feel overwhelmed, my tendency is to shut down or distract myself with frivolous things — anything to take me out of what I’m feeling. That never goes well. And lately, overwhelm is fading, in favor of annoyance — why do […]

    It’s a post, from my iPad!

    After 47 hours spent figuring out how to log into the WP app on my iPad (don’t ask), I am here, writing a post. I wish I could use the image compare block here, because that thing is magical. Instead, enjoy this random cat video I found on my iPad. Next time, I might write […]

    Playing with Blocks

    For my second-ever post on this newfangled blog, I’m following a lesson in a FREE (yes, FREE!) new course, which you can read all about on the WordPress.com blog. And since the lesson asks me to create a post using three different block types, why not use one of those right here, to make that […]
