painting….again!

No comments

Did I mention that we painted our master bedroom? It’s the 3rd room in 4 weekends and the 4th room in the house! Those gray walls look that bad! We lived in our house Jacksonville, FL for about 18 months and we only painted 6 rooms. We’re just about there in a third of the [...]

Masters information

Well after doing a lot of research, I have to take the GRE exam to get into UoM Masters program. The requirements aren’t too high so I don’t think it will be a problem. I’m just going to have issues with the writing section. Computer Science grad students shouldn’t be required to write any papers, [...]

I’m not really helping anybody or anything like that. I just sit here and type. The unhappiness has really effected the quality of my marriage and my life as [...]

Well this weekend, we sat down and talked to Jen and Bob about Jen watching Aaron. We’re going to have her watch Aaron 4 days a week but he will be in a mothers day out program at one of the churches around our house. Jen would only be watching him for about an hour [...]

Aaron hasn’t taken a nap in the past 2 days. Yesterday, he fell asleep in the car for about 10 minutes according to Alicia and Meri. Last night, he went to bed 30 minutes early but he could have gone to bed about an hour and a half early. I miss the boy that was [...]

Done! Finally. Everything went off without a hitch, it was sort of amazing to me. Glad I finished one without any mess-ups!

I upgraded from WordPress 1.5 to 2.0. So far I like it a lot better. I was able to import all of my blogger posts over using the import tool that is integrated in WP 2.0. This import tool was a lot simpler to use than the 1.5 blogger import tool! That one was a [...]
