Moving Forward … I Think …

RJ starts the second grade in the morning. It is hard to believe that I am the father of a second grader. He is very excited because he in the class of the teacher that he wanted. He also started Taekwondo. He took a couple of classes at the community center over the summer and really enjoyed them.

Tony starts his second year of preschool in a couple of weeks. He really wants to be like his brother, so we brought him an embroidered backpack, just like we did for RJ. He is very excited about going back to school.

With the boys getting older, we decided we really need a yard. The condo was a great starter home, but we really need a place with yard for the boys to play. So we put the condo on the market. It is very difficult with both Beth and I working to keep the house clean, but somehow we manager.

I honestly believe we have made more improvements to the condo in the last couple of weeks that we have since we moved in, but that is probably exaggeration. we are focusing more on the outside, since the inside is already beautiful, and it is as good as it is going to get.

Since we moved in four years ago our mailbox has been sitting in posts held up by cinder blocks. Yesterday that changed. It took about four hours of my time and three trips to Home Depot, but the mailbox posts are not firmly planted in the ground.

Well, no matter what happens, we will be the better for it.

Is anyone in the market for a condo?

Lego Store Opens at Easton

Both RJ and Tony love legos, as the small bruises on my feet can confirm. So we were very excited a couple of months ago when we saw that a lego store was coming to Easton. The grand opening celebration was this weekend, and we stopped by today to see the completion of the building a a giant lego Yoda.

Some Sage Theme Updates …

I’ve updated my theme to be compatible with the new features of WordPress, namely threaded (nested) comments and comment paging. I also tried to optimize some things so that, despite my mediocre hosting company, pages should take less than three seconds to load.

Themes

I tried to upgrade the Open Air theme that I was using, but things started getting a little wonky. That being said, I reverted to a previous theme. As I built this one, I am sure that it will work the way I intent it to work.

MCITP Database Administrator

I received my new certification card for my MCITP certification in the mail yesterday. I have been like a little kid expecting a package. I don’t know why I was so excited by this, but it was almost like receiving a diploma. (I think I actually worked harder at this than I did to receive a diploma.)

School’s Out

Tony completed his first year of pre-school last week and RJ completed first grade this week. Beth also finished her certification class this week as well. I feel kinda left out.
