Friday’s Fragments
September 7, 2012
I’m on the go today, after taking the early part of the week off. I have GOT to finish my built-in bookcase project before winter so we can reinstall the heater before winter. This month is craziest of them all because not only do I have those two large projects, I’m also working full time […]

My Websites Were Hacked
May 3, 2012
Things are going to be a tad wonky around my sites for a bit. I discovered that all my blogs had been hacked in some way. Don’t worry, you were never in danger- the hack was a code injection.
