Aurelia Marie

Just stopping in for a quick update.  As usual, when the blog is quiet, that is when there is a lot going on.  Marcus is getting settled-in with his new job.  I’m getting thiiiiis close to having my dissertation completely finished!  I will be dropping it off at the editing office for its “style check,” margins and what-not, today.  Then, just a few adjustments to make to some of the chapters and it goes to committee and out of my hands for a few weeks.  Hooray.  I’m hoping to take a few days off with Aurelia to just chill.

Aurelia has been feeling the stress at our house, lately.  She’s been a little extra clingy and grumpy, but we are managing.  If we aren’t careful, she could turn into a total Whinemonster – aaaaaahhhh.  Over the next few weeks, I should be winding down (except for a few days right around my defense, next month), so hopefully we can find our “normal” again.

I’ll get around to posting some pictures sometime soon…  I’ve been working less in the evenings, now.

Woohoo! As you can see, the blog almost looks like it did before, perhaps even better. I want to add little bullets to all of the links in the sidebars and then I still need to fix a lot of videos…after that, we’re back to regular posting. We have to figure out a new way to post lots of pics quickly, but overall, moving from Blogspot to Wordpress was a great decision!

So, working with Wordpress is difficult.  I think its difficulty is due to the large freedom that it grants…so this is good long term.  Unfortunately, that means it will be a while before I have the blog looking sleek again, especially with the new job.  Bear with us!

Big Changes are occurring to this blog…it is moving from blogger.com software to wordpress software.  Expect hiccups.  I do hope to return to the original design if possible.
