How to create a subdomain

subdomain

In a previous post about how to edit your WordPress theme, I suggested that in order to learn how WordPress themes work, that you setup a subdomain on your site with a separate WordPress install so you can tinker to your hearts content without having to put your main site in maintenance mode or worse, [...]

Wordless(ful) Wednesday – thank you Miss Trisha!

red tutu

Abby got a package in the mail the other day from Zulily courtesy of Trisha. First of all, she never gets mail, so it was exciting to begin with. Second, when a little girl opens up a package and there is a pretty red tutu inside, LOOK OUT. But one cannot just wear a red [...]

…posts, that is. This is my 2,000 th blog post. It’s kind of interesting (to me anyway) to look at the numbers. I first started this site in September 2007, but really I didn’t officially start “blogging” until April 2008.  Almost 3 years later I have 2,000 posts.  That is approximately 1.8 posts per day [...]

I’m never wordless, sorry. Oh well. I asked him (my son) what he was doing.

Wordless(ful) Wednesday – did I shrink?

before

I recently re-started on Weight Watchers.  I finally realized that I should go with what works.  I lost almost 50 lbs on it, why did I try and go it on my own when I still had weight to lose? My ultimate goal is 135 lbs.  I’m at 155 lbs now give or take. So [...]

Wordless(ful) Wednesday – seeing double

This one needs a few words. My kids each have a special stuffed “guy” they sleep with and bring everywhere.  Jake has a leopard named “Ace” and Abby has a bunny named “Bunny”. My husband knows a local wood worker who makes custom rocking chairs for kids.  He does all the popular characters such as [...]
