Step 3: the site and blogger are talking to each other, sort of

So I have a workaround for now to link the blog to the site. I have to say that I don't completely understand why google sites doesn't work a little more like blogger. It is pretty easy to update and change things on blogger and very intuitive. Pages, the pre-cursor to sites, was also fairly intuitive and easy to use, so not super sure why they changed it. I am getting convinced that I will need to learn html if I am going to make this project really work.

Ferris wasn't wrong. I tell this story a lot, but when my cousin was pregnant with her second baby, I overheard her telling my grandmother that she felt like she had spent her first pregnancy waiting for her baby to get to the next stage of life. And she realized that she hadn't been appreciating where things were at, right now. I feel like that is a deep truth for me. That I need to appreciate what is here, right now. But it's hard to appreciate my inability to understand CNAME configuration (hence my blog not being connected to the domain I bought in Sept!) or the challenges of parenting teens and the questions they have that are so similar to my questions as an adult.
