The new job is going well; I had a meeting with the CIO on Friday that went very well, I believe. So it appears that I’ll be going ahead full steam on the project I’m working on. Now that I’ve been at Von Hoffmann for four weeks things are becoming more familiar and CPI is becoming a distant memory. It was a …read more »

On a lighter note, we attended our last baby education class tonight. It’s weird to think that the due date is so close now; February 25th is looming closer and closer now. That’s like 10 weeks or so from now. I’m looking forward to it though; I really want to see what he looks like. He’s been this “thing” of sorts inside Traci’s belly but to think he’s a little person is almost strange. I’m anxious to see him and to hold him. I’m excited about …read more »

I cannot believe that Dimebag Darrell is dead. I mean, I wasn’t the biggest Pantera fan but the guy was a good guitar player.

I’ve also decided to keep history of the …read more »

Orson is still doing well. Traci did not have gestational diabetes which is wonderful. As I said, it wasn’t as bad as some other problems could have been but to not have to worry about one more thing is a relief. We have a ton of stuff for him now and it’s amazing to see just how much stuff he actually requires.

I spent my entire long weekend …read more »

As I said I’m updating the site more regularly. I’ve put a few more pictures on the site, changed the index page a bit, and have fixed some grammatical and typographical errors that I’d somehow missed. Maybe it was working at 2:00 a.m. that allowed those through; my chances probably aren’t much better since it’s almost 1:00 a.m. as I write this.
