March, 2008

This weekend we took a road trip to Indianapolis to see my dad, and a couple of accessibility issues came up along the way.

The one where AJ cut her hair again and my emotions immediately following my discovery of her sudden self-imposed baldness.

Saving notes of encouragement to lift us up during those times when we don’t quite feel up to par

A little more about using Things and grocery lists, now with updated scheduling and recurring “tasks”

A few random ideas that came to me this week while I wasn’t able to finish an entire post.

Getting to the heart of why we crave the attention of CSS galleries and the alternative to praise-seeking.

Nor is it a statement of agreement. Just say “me too” or “you betcha” and save Amen for God’s ears.

Another comparison of Wordpress and Textpattern, this time updated for 2008, two years after the first comparison.

TXP has a built in article image feature where you put the ID number of the image into a field in your post and it places the image wherever you specify. Now, Wordpress doesn’t have this built in, but it’s not too difficult [...]

So my previous post was a little bit dreary. I was at the end of a rope, but today I’ve been replenished. Groom took the kids for me today so I could have a few hours of me time. I went to Target first. It was strange, me not having the kids. I wasn’t sure [...]

I read something this morning that really struck me. It’s not revolutionary, but it sure hits home. In an article from Radiant Magazine, a new mother writes:
