I'm so excited! I won a conference pass to Future of Web Apps, Miami at the end of February. Thanks to CenterNetwork for hosting the contest and Carsonfied for creating such great conferences for me to attend. I guess I forgive Ryan for not letting me hugmymac with his Toy Story creation.

Breaking Current News
In the light of the condition of my house, I suppose "breaking" news could be seen as an unfortunate headline, so let's change that.
It's getting closer to that August 2 self-imposed deadline for this site. And I'm working feverishly to get more info about the house repairs up for you, my faithful audience, to giggle at.This past weekend we decided that we should start up three more projects all at once. Don't you know that's how things get done?Project #1: This is the big one. From the beginning we have known that there is lap board siding underneath the green board and bat siding. I've been against even the suggestion of "peeking" just to see what shape the siding underneath was in. I finally broke down and compromised that the porch is covered and not as exposed to the elements and it would be a perfect place to examine what we believe to be the original siding. See picture above to get an idea of what we are looking at repairing/replacing.Project #2: The trim. We are still painting the trim. There is so much trim to paint. And we are starting to run out of stuff that doesn't require a ladder. See the wish list for help in this area.Project #3: We bought the house with a fence on three sides, leaving the driveway unfenced. However, on the recent trip back from Kansas we picked
up two hitchhikers who required that the fence project be bu!
mped up
to high priority. The hitchhikers were two little puppies, just to stop any urgent, angry phone calls. We sunk the posts to complete the fenced yard and will be doing the gate in the next couple of days.
