You're going to have to take my word for it on this folks, but it has been 2 years since I first posted on the Dreamweaver newsgroup. How do I remember this? Well, last year I looked it up shortly before TODCON. TODCON happened to fall on the 3rd of October last year. When I went to look at the Dreamweaver newsgroup archives at google, I can't get more than one record for October 3rd, 2000 to...

It is finished. Well we're done writing that is. I can't believe I've actually written 1/2 of a book. The work isn't over for me yet though. I still have to review the chapters as they come back from editing. I'm sure there will be a few screenshots that need retaking (there always are). But it is a great feeling to be done writing. Now I can focus on some of my extensions that are almost...

I don't get out much. Really, I mean that. I'm home more than anyone I know. Quite possible that's because I work from home but still. I need to get out more. So, tonight I did just that. Gaetano is spending the night at my mom's and my husband had the night off so we decided to go see a movie. Remember, I said I don't get out much. I've been to about 4 or 5 movies since my son was born. Let's...

Dan's been gettin' fancy with his blog. I think he's trying to make me jealous. He's doing a fine job of that if he is! Soon as I'm done with Killer Tips I'll have some time to play around and add all the features I'd been planning. One of them is an archive of pages I make when helping folks on the Dreamweaver newsgroup. I'll assign it some keywords, a link to the original thread at google, a...

Ever have one of those days where your head is hurting you so bad and you've got a ton of work to do? It doesn't happen to me that often but I had a huge headache today and couldn't wait to get rid of it so much so I actually crushed the Motrin before taking it. I'm feeling better but not 100% yet. Hopefully it doesn't come back when the meds where off. I don't want to take more. I prefer to...

Only a few more days of writing the book left. It has been a great experience and I'm really looking forward to seeing it in print. After I'm done, I have plans to get 2 commercial extensions finished up. One is called CSS Assistant and the other is an update to the Template-Lover's Suite. I'll be sure to announce it here when they're done. On another note, Dan fixed our store product delivery...

I think Gaetano may be having a potty training breakthrough... I put him in Thomas the Tank Engine undies and he was so excited to wear them. He's only worn undies about 6 times. Well, he had an accident and made a puddle on the carpet. He's never cared when he's had accidents before, he just takes the undies off and brings them to me. This time he was standing up when it happened and must have...

Oh my goodness, it sure has been a long time since I posted a new message. I've just been unbelievably busy since I got back from TODCON. In case you were wondering, I've lost all the weight I put on while there, and am aiming to lose another 6 lbs., maybe 8. If I do, I'll have pretty much the figure I had 10 years ago. That would so cool...

Woke up early and did a bunch of work this morning so that I can take off to the county fair for a few hours. I'll be back about 3:30pm if anyone cares. :-)

Just got home from the hospital... I'm exhausted. Gaetano is okay now, and asleep in his bed. About 2 hours ago I heard a scream, dropped my JavaScript Bible, and ran to the kitchen. Gaetano had gotten his right thumb stuck in a 3/4 open empty can of olives. (I had no idea Ambrogio left the can on the counter.) Gaetano was panicing, screaming repeatedly "I stuck!". It must have really...
