I might change scripts or try to find some sort of security extensions for wordpress. Somehow people/bots keep slipping in all kinds of junk that breaks my site. >_<

Wordpress 2.5 is getting close to being released and it’s looking pretty snazzy. I might try to hold off until I try it out before changing to something like Joomla.

Maybe I’m not used to the new schedule of Daylight Savings. Or maybe I’ve just never had a handle on remembering the time change unless I’m reminded. We didn’t realize it happened until late last night when we were watching tv. We noticed the clock on the cable box read one time, while the analog clock above it read an hour earlier. We checked our phones which confirmed the cable box’s time, but my wrist watch and other analog clocks confirmed the other analog clock… Talk about confusing ourselves. We were exhausted from working on the master bedroom walls for the first time in 4 months and were totally baffled by what was happening. lol

Have you ever been tempted to move to Europe? Just because?

Things are going really well. My brother appears to be settling in well in his new place far from “home” and even making friends. His job is sounding like it’s requiring less travel, stress, and hours, and he’s even taking kung-fu classes!

My job changed, and I should be getting the full details of my projects tomorrow - I’m very excited. No more on-call. Yay! I have a life now. Yay again! I’m getting out and walking with the dog (it’ll be more often once it gets warmer outside). I’m working on a website with a friend for our favorite local restaurant in exchange for food. I have a growing list of design projects for another company to work on. One of the projects is a new logo design - and I think I’m finally on to something that will fit well. These projects will also help finally pay off some debt. Our taxes have been submitted and accepted - and are really nice this year because we bought the house. That should help give us a small buffer as well as catch up on a couple of things. I’m also actually making decent progress on my school work as well!

It’s amazing what some “spare” time can do.

Now to make progress on redoing the master bedroom. Ha!

It’s such a relief to no longer be on-call. I have free time in my evenings and weekends to work on the house, bring the dog out, make progress on school work and some design projects, and even relax if I want.

My new “job” at my company started today, but I still don’t have any info on who I report to or anything like that yet. I think I’ll get that on Wednesday.
