I won!

Yes, I have banished the little Red x's for good now, and I didn't even resort to Yahooing behind Google's back.

Sheesh, it had nothing to do with my web designing skills (or lack thereof) whatsoever. Anyhow, that glitch is a thing of the past, and my site is starting to look like something now. It's not going to be much longer now, maybe a week,and my first proper site, with javascript, php and a database will be up and running.

I've "stolen" lots of ideas from all over the place so, it's not entirely 100% my own from start to finish, but I've learned a lot in the process.

This site isn't going to make me money - maybe a couple of bob here and there, and maybe I'll decide to sell some advertising space in the future, but for now, it's my learning curve site, which is also something of a community service.

I've been writing a little more, and I'm keeping to my committment to do two posts a week on here too! (I think! :-)) Things are definitely moving forward!

It's quite something working from home. I don't need any discipline to work as such - not at this stage - because I just love all that I'm doing and find myself having to pull myself away from my pc, in order to do other things.

After the little Red X's incident, I decided to take a couple of days away form the computer totally, so that I could do some of those other things I've been wanting to, and meaning to do - like redecorate my lounge, and the bathroom. (Not a major makeover by any means, but fun and everything looks so much better now).

The lounge is constantly the victim of my pets. I'm slowly but surely getting it more pet proof, but I'm sure in a short while, the dog will have chewed some of my new cushions! My female dog has had something of a love affair with one of the cushions, which has now been tossed! I'm sincerely hoping that she doesn't fall in love with any of the new cushions!

I'm also looking foward to putting up the Christmas tree - but have decided to wait!

One of the great things about working from home is that I even managed to do some Christmas shopping and it's only November!!! I'm usually not even thinking about Christmas yet, and working like crazy to meet deadlines and tie up things for the end of year.

I am definitely finding every reason to make sure that I get everything up and running according to plan!
