    Let me give you a little bit of a back story first. 2 years ago I began posting on the WordPress.org forums to help people out. I would only post on things that I knew for sure I knew the answers to or would help out. It felt like it at the time. Who knows…

    I know it does sound funny to those that have known me for several years but that is how I view myself sometimes. I don’t mean that I am a beginner but I want to be one. I mean this in the most positive way I can think of. A few years ago I was…

    Parenthood is a never-ending journey and every day is a new adventure into making mistakes while trying to keep some sanity.

    Over the years I have loved working with code and can recall when I first saw those little lines that created a table to create a two column page and used simple graphics as the background of the entire table. I was using Microsoft’s FrontPage editor to not only create my own pages but to…

    As of lately I have had this subject on my mind and I can’t seem to shake it. Part of that reason is because I was talking about it one night while working overnight. Being able to talk to somebody has shed some light to my subject and has helped me see things in a…

    I am slowly making some progress in my site’s theme and I could not be any happier. Every last line of code is helping my understand how to properly implement my site. This week has been really productive for me. There are a few things that I still need to finish as far a images…
