First Weekend of December 2006
This was not the most fun weekend. I got really sick with a cold Thursday night, and it’s stuck with me the whole weekend. I did get a few chores taken care of.

An important part of my life is my family, so stories about the family go here.
Wrapping up Thanksgiving 2006
We had a pretty typical Thanksgiving. As I’ve already reported, I drove to North Carolina last Monday, and then met friends up in Boone/Blowing Rock on Tuesday. Wednesday I stuck close to home and spent the day with Mom, and had dinner with her and some of her friends. It was overcast and rainy most of the day Wednesday.

My youngest sister is due to have a baby at the end of this month. They recently held a baby shower, and my other sister got this edible centerpiece. I think this about the coolest thing I’ve ever seen.
Read moreUpdate on July 17, 2006
As you may have noticed, there have not been a lot posts over the past couple of weeks. For the past three weeks, I’ve been on very tight deadlines with a bunch of very large proposals.

But it also means a great love for life and all the people that are part of our life…a passion for life if you will.

This is the summary of my weekend, the first weekend of April, 2006. Not much to report, but I did try a couple of new restaurants.
Read moreBlog Upgrades
I ran through the upgrade process on my Mother’s blog. That went very well, but I was holding my breath as I upgraded the Deep Sand blog. It is a significantly more complex site. However, the upgrade went very smoothly. There are one or two minor problems that will have to be corrected. I think I know how to resolve these fairly quickly tomorrow. There is a file uploader that I use for the photo gallery that isn’t working, so I’ll have to do some research on that. There is an option to it using the Flickr photo system, and there are plugins for that too.
Read moreA Fare Fair Weekend
While I posted movie reviews (Date Movie, The Pink Panther), there has not been much else posted lately. I had a pretty bad couple of days related to work and my profession at the end of last week. I have also been busy with work, and the social calendar has been pretty full.
