time

Yes, I am still here. I feel like I have been insanely busy since we got back from our trip south and I’ve hardly had time to post here. Besides working late to catch up at the office, I’ve also taken on a couple more projects.

After several evenings of effort, I finally managed to install the Gallery photo software on Tricia’s website. Of course it turned out that if I had just followed the instructions to begin with, I could have saved myself hours of frustration. Why, I ask myself, does this always seem to be the case in everything I do? Once I get some photos uploaded to the site I will put a link on this page.

Another thing I have been trying to do is teach myself to use Dreamweaver so that I can help out with the website at my church. This is really nice software. I’ve been coding web pages by hand for several years. There have been a couple of software packages that I came across and experimented with, but they didn’t seem to work for me. Frontpage just wasn’t versatile enough and I never really got the hang of Adobe Golive. But Dreamweaver seems to make sense.

So that is what’s been eating up my time. Thank goodness the weekend is coming up. If the weather is good I hope to be able to work in my garden. And it would really help my peace of mind if I could get this room that I call my office straightened up and organized a little. For months I have been stacking books and papers and computer gear on the floor and table and telling myself I would put things where they belong later. Now the disorganization has gone beyond even what I can stand. Tricia has been hinting that I should visit the Container Store.

And I really owe my parents a visit for Sunday dinner too.

    My daughter is trying to get me to create my blog on dreamweaver, but I have to look everything up and it is taking time. I think I am learning though.

    I’m anxious to see the pictures you’re planning to post, Bill. You’ve taken some great ones so far.

    Have a great weekend with enough time to get everything done you wish, and a bit of time to do nothing at all.
