It just works.

After a few weeks of being so frustrated I couldn’t even look at this blog, I decided to log in today when I was setting up a new online start page for Firefox.  I logged in, and…it just works. I even upgraded to the newest version of WordPress, and the sparkle is back in my day. I don’t like to be without my blog! And it’s so much better on my own domain.

little things add up…

This weekend, Jay hung the breadboards in the kitchen, and hung some utensils above the stove for easy access. He put borax into a smaller container that fits into my basket on the dryer. Today, I worked on organizing my personal cookbook (a loose leaf binder with divider tabs, with the recipes in plastic sheet protectors). It isn’t fancy, but at least I don’t have loose pages any more.  I’ll do more work on it as I go along.

keep it neat

I continue to be keenly interested in frugality and getting and keeping things organized since we bought our home.  This weekend, we moved a microwave cart that had been in the office into <gasp!> the kitchen so that we could move the microwave off the counter.  This opened up quite a bit of space so that we can work on the counters.  There’s still more to do, but it will be fine.  Organizing is an ongoing process.

I am sometimes not a patient person. I notice this when I am beginning any new project: I want it done…last week.  And so it is with this blog, since I’ve just signed up with a paid hosting company. I know, logically, that it will take time to get things set up and working the way I want them to be.  I just don’t like it not being done yet.  I need to back up a couple of steps and do some reading and study help files and such.  So it will be a while yet before I am ready to really start working on moving my other site to the paid host, never mind creating any new ones.
