Playing with lights

lite briteYou guys remem­ber Lite Brite? That crazy light box that you cov­ered with a black cloth-like paper and shoved those lit­tle pegs into lit­tle tiny holes so when you turned on the light, your design glowed?

Well, recently, while work­ing on my new site design {PAUSE} I’m smack-dab in the mid­dle of a site design for my blog. As you can see, as loverly as this design is, it doesn’t exactly fit my ‘vibe’. So I’ll be going retro soon. CAN’T WAIT! {\PAUSE} I stum­bled across a Lite Brite online. It’s just as annoy­ing try­ing to fill those tiny, lit­tle pegs — espe­cially when you need read­ing glasses — yet I keep com­ing back to play again and again.

My youngest gets on the desk­top and I get on my lap­top and we set the timer for 5 min­utes. After the timer goes off we check each oth­ers work out and cre­ate another chal­lenge. Grem­lin is so stinkin’ cre­ative while I’m too busy rub­bing my eyes try­ing to get them uncrossed! Noth­ing like kick­ing your mom’s butt at Lite Brite.

Off to lick my wounds…Things I Love Thursday

And get stronger read­ing glasses…
