Help?!

OK, so I’m changing the look of my blog a bit (even though I lose some of the formatting on my early images).  In any case, I was looking around for a way to have one of those really cool “moving” Flickr badges (like the one I found here).  So I read about it and learned it was really simple.

Copy and paste the code for the badge into a text widget and watch the magic happen!  As you can clearly see by the atrocity that is my failed attempt at said embedded badge, it didn’t work!!  I’ve already spent an hour or so trying and re-trying to get this thing to work, but to no avail.

If, by some miracle, you have found your way to my blog and can offer any assistance, the obsessive compulsive side of me would be beyond appreciative!  What’s more I’d love to use my text widgets to put cool buttons on my blog too, but apparently I’m text-widgetally challenged!

5:24

That’s the magic number.  At least it has been for two Tuesdays in a row.  Granted on Wednesday it was 5:27 and Friday, right around 5:43.  Any way you look at it, it means we’ve had yet another snow rain freezing fog we’re-really-not-sure-but-we’ll-take-it day.

And by the looks of the forecast (winter storm warning with 6-9 inches of accumulation possible on top of the 3 hours of wintry mix that’s expected to pelt the area first) we could be in store for yet another day tomorrow.  No, I’m not bragging or anything like that.  In fact, I’m a little shocked and unsure as we’ve never had so many days jam-packed into one little timeframe before.

Luckily, today was both relaxing and productive.  We’re about to send little guy to bed, at which point I hope to finish grading some papers I’ve had for awhile now, which means tomorrow we’ll be able to attack the house and make it spotless.  Ahem, that is, if we have another unexpected day off.  In the event that we do return to work (which wouldn’t be a bad thing) we’ll strive for cleanliness yet another day.

To wrap things up, I couldn’t help but share a couple pics that were melt-my-heart adorable today.
