As a web developer, I probably ought to update my site more often. At least to let people know I still exit and still in business. My bad. This past year has been very busy and full of ups and downs, family, health, travel, work with existing clients.
The featured image of this post is of my parents, Darryl and Linda, whitewater rafting. I wish I could remember when and where it took place, but based on their age in the picture and guessing the most likely place it happened in the late 1980’s and in Colorado. My father is wearing the White Sox baseball cap in the upper right and my mother is to his left. Note—He was a diehard Cubs fan, so I’m guessing if he’d lost the cap, he wouldn’t have felt so put out if it had been a Cubs hat. He did like the Sox a little too. I lost both my parents within the last two years. I lost my mother Linda in September of 2022 and my father Darryl in June of 2024. They had been married for 59 years. My mom made it to 81 and my dad almost made it to 83. So I am blessed that I had them for as long as I did in my life.
I won’t promised to update this more often or say how frequently. My last major project was to import all of my LiveJournal entries. I’d been cleaning up or removing bad links. Whether or not this hurts my employment prospects, I don’t know and to be honest, I don’t care. We are all more online and if you can dig back far enough you’ll discover I’ve changed my views over time like any grown up would. It remains to be seen if I’ll stay on the WordPress platform, but it’s a good one and has a large community and that’s what most of my clients use. If that changes, I’ll let everyone know, but I’ll keep supporting my existing clients using WordPress for as long as they’d like to use me.
