I think I should start by looking back at my last update. It would seem that was October 1st, and I had just gotten my hair cut. Since then I've been mostly working, either at my actual job or at my secondary job. At this point, I must consider my work on www.photographybylynnandgary.com to have gone far beyond what I had originally intended, which was to create a simple website that would do what was needed and then leave it. The project has grown to encompass a full e-commerce solution, complete with stand alone external administration software. I spend what little real free time I have trying to work on the code for it, but that seems to be completely in short supply.
Part of the reason that I have less than normal real free time is because I have gotten into chess with Sage. I must say, this is not a complaint. I absolutely love the time I spend with her going to chess classes, playing, and putting games into the analysis program I installed onto her computer for her. She loves the game, and she's actually got quite a talent for it, much more than I do. My chess skills are mediocre at best, all learned through hard work. She picks it up quite easily in comparison to myself, and I think that if she decides to put the time and effort into it, she could become quite an accomplished player. So, as long as she is interested in the game, which is a great thing for her, I'll continue to very happily give her my time and effort with it.
We've also been spending lots of time visiting Lynn and Gary, Sage's grandparents. It seems like things are never going to settle down. When I do get free time, I end up just sitting back and watching some television, completely worn out mentally.
Despite the rigmarole, I have been productive at least. It doesn't hurt that I have sort of hijacked
I also got another new toy recently, an iPod nano. It's the 8 gig version, and it's the coolest thing ever. It was my Christmas gift from
