It has been rather hectic around here for the past few weeks what with new jobs, new routine and the small matter of buying a house and all that entails! And now we have been thrown a small challenge of not one but two sick children into the mix. I have been also suffering from technology breakdown with my laptop slowly disintegrating around me and the web host being rather less than reliable. The mail server being unavailable for a couple of days during the purchase of the house was particularly irritating especially considering the speed that things happened over the past week. A day missed could have been quite important but luckily Gail had the foresight to include a work email address as well so we weren’t affected too much. But that is so not the point. This means that not only do I need to find a solution to my broken laptop issue, I now need to find a more suitable web host as well. And to think I was looking into media players and home entertainment systems a couple of weeks ago. Huh! I need to sort the basics before even thinking about that now.
