Dang, what happened to November?

Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree...how quickly we decorated you...:)  It's December...and I didn't get around to posting in November...must have been having too much fun...yeah, right...so trying to get my animated gif to post...FB doesn't support animated gifs, so maybe here...we shall see...:) Well, it loaded...and I saw it...once it goes through, it turns white...so click on the white area above this text...and it'll ~pop~up~, again... :P

October, almost gone, already...
I can see the end from here...
Less than a week away...
This year went faster than usual...
A sign of a future trend, indeed...:P

Seems like just when you start to get the wheels turning...
another flat holds you back...
Got to get some pneumatic wheels...:P

Before August gets away...

Working on my site...again...found a nice Photo Gallery template. So hopefully, I'll at least get the pictures going this month.

Got the Tri City Engineering site done...published July 28, 2011...it looks purty good...if I may say so myself...:)

Break the spell...All ManKind

Building a Web Site from a Template...is easier...

Just started yesterday, and already have a good deal done...for www.TriCityEngineering.com...it's lookin' really good...:)

Building a Web Site ain't easy...

Wish it were...I really am working on it...practically every day...well...not every single day...but I should be...:) Figuring out how to link all this stuff together, so even I can find it easier...so back on the treadmill...

Expression Web Learning Experience

REVIEW:
Well, let's just say going through the book, "Sams Teach Yourself Microsoft Expression Web 4 in 24 Hours" was quite a journey. Most the book was spot on, some was off enough that if you didn't know how to 'fix' it, you'd be stumped. Some chapters towards the end stumped me for a day or two, and was very discouraging. The site the author has to go along with the book should be updated to reflect these discrepancies. I would have documented them, but it was all I could do to get through it.
The book in general was a good way to get the basics. So in that respect it was definitely useful and helpful. I'll document the problems as I 're~find' them, and post them. I'll even use it as a guide to actually build my own website, but will also use the microsoft site with many useful tutorials, and other sites I've found with helpful information. I'll probably even make a section on my website for this information, as well.

Yay! I'm almost done!

Expression Web 4 is not for the faint of heart...there is sooo much to learn! I am so excited, I'm almost done with my book, but not even close to actually making the site of my dreams. That will take so much time to finally get a web site up and running, but it'll be so worth it. I'm actually on Chapter 20, of 25 chapters...so definitely, this coming week, I'll be done with the book, and on to a web full of ebooks & tutorials! :P

...I'm back...

Yay! My Expression Web 4 software came today! So now there is absolutely no excuse what~so~ever to not keep going...:)

Once the holidays finally ended...drama included...well, certainly life goes on...and we have to get back on the band~wagon before it leaves without us...:)

I'm halfway through my EW4 book, so at the rate of a chapter a day, approximately 4 chapters a week...should increase it to at least 5...I'll hopefully be done within 3 weeks...that's the plan...

I'm finding so many things to blog about...just have to do it...and once I get the website closer to finished...I'll get the .com, and post that here too...

Photoshop...in the meantime...I'll have to finish in~between all this...

My new camera needs some attention...I haven't been ~shooting~ like I should be...so need to devote some time to that...too...

And, of course, Oso is consistantly bugging me to play...so I have to go for now...but I will be back...again...:)
