Yes. I have been a bad blogger. No updates lately.
It’s summer. It’s 100+ degrees. I work at home. The kid is out of school……it’s down time. Being the daughter, granddaughter, niece, and cousin of teachers, summer has always been a time for refreshing, renewal. Taking stock, cleaning out, freshening up, and resting. Still is.

Your company may not have a need for a website that is being published to on a daily basis and you maybe quite happy with your existing website design. But a website, just like a car or a home, requires a bit of maintenance, upkeep, and upgrades to stay current and most useful to you. [...]
My latest project has been Call4PilotCars.com, a website for Asherville Pilot Car Express.

I know better than to check my stats daily..I get sucked into all that data. But lately, I’ve not been able to keep myself from it because of all the googling of my name. It didn’t REALLY bug me until I saw a hit from a yahoo search on the term “brandi boyd dead”. Yikes. [...]
Yesterday I drove down to Houston to watch Chelsea and her winterguard perform at the 2008 Texas Color Guard Circuit Colorguard and Percussion State Championships and got a real treat. Our team placed 3rd in their section and 9th overall in their unit, and performed a show that left the audience slack-jawed. It was [...]

With the emergence of AJAX using JavaScript is [...]
It is hard to believe that my little sister has been dead a full ten years. It does seem just like yesterday when I kissed her goodbye in her casket and we put her to rest with her Ballie, playing the Macarena. (It actually was appropriate, no matter what you might think). It is almost [...]
