Tom’s weblog

Another weekend come and gone. Not much computerish happened despite my having a big project to get done. I did get some bread made and pecan-cinnamon sticky buns (yum yum). Also made calzones yesterday for dinner, they were delicious. In fact, they were so good that Grant hated them and Matthew loved them, typically the indicator of a good recipe but it does make it hard to cook sometimes.

The days slip by so quickly. They are full days but I get home do stuff put the kids in bed and before I know what’s happened it is 11:30. Oh boy. Matthew had his soccer practice tonight and both boys will have games on Friday. Should be interesting, they are still playing by bunching around the ball. The coaches try but it is hard to break old habits. In my continuing search for a new computer I stopped by the computer store on Monday. They had this little box there made by Shuttle It’s smaller than a bread box but has about everything to offer. I liked it a lot but not sure I can lay out the $600 dollars it would take to fully equip it, processor, memory, hard drive. Then again I may just splurge some, later though. Intially I put in a link to www.shuttle.com above but when I clicked on it I was unable to come back here via the back button. I REALLY hate that! It would almost be enough to sway me away from what is a fine machine, I don’t care to do business with companies that irritate me.

I meant to get back tomorrow, especially since it so much simpler now to put up comments. I just spent the evening messing around, did not get a lot done it seems. Lounged around a bit this morning, made waffles, yum yum. Then made some bread, a basic honey-wheat recipe and by this time it was 12 pm. Poof there goes the morning. Losing an hour last night did not help, we all slept in a like amount. Perhaps I will take a few minutes to figure out php-nuke. Certainly can do a lot. Later.
