OK, some problems importing my links but it finally went. Like the wp.com import from blogrolling, there was some tweaking to do. Blogrolling has no categories but wp does! As I fiddled around thinking ‘this is just stupid’, I had a forehead slapping thought – it’s in mySQL stupid! So I followed my geeky self over to phpadmin and edited all those links there, one-two-three. No problem.

Now I just feel a tad proud and geekily accomplished! You go girl!

Sometimes a little mistake can be a good thing.

I sewed the first horizontal seam of my new quilt. Went pretty quickly and looked pretty accurate – all good.

Then I looked at the time and thought, ok, I could sew one more seam before calling it a night. I sewed the next seam. Remember – this is my life, an inch and a half at a time. My modus is to snip about a foot of seamline (the little connecting threads between the two rows), match and pin the intersections, sew, unpinning as I go. Repeat.

I stop to admire the three rows sewn together with the two rows. Whoopsie – there’s an unsewn seam in there between two pairs of rows sewn together. Ummmmm… OK, I can fix that easily. Not really a problem needing fixing, but my little “error” got me four seams sewn together because I just had to sew that one seam that was flapping in the breeze. So far so good and it’s looking pretty darn good to me. I love when the squares become squares again.

Now off to bed with me.

This is an example of a WordPress page, you could edit this to put information about yourself or your site so readers know where you are coming from. You can create as many pages like this one or sub-pages as you like and manage all of your content inside of WordPress.

Are you feeling deja vu all over again? Are you wondering what the heck is going on?

Well, it’s like this – first version, hosted by wordpress. This version, hosted by moi, via Your-Site.com, comes to you powered by WordPress via mySQL and php. Well then.

Now I have no excuse not to buckle down and learn or re-learn CSS, eh? But the lure of self-contained comments is pretty heavy duty.

What do you think?

Is quilting weather-related? You bet! When it’s too hot, and you don’t have AC, well go figure – ironing isn’t really all that appealing. And since my current project needed ironing before proceeding let’s just say I was on hold.

But today started grey – couple sprinkles of rain. Then BANG – two inches of rain in about two and a half hours! Literally! It just hosed down as they say. And while it was doing that, the temperature came down too. Went below 70 for the first time in I don’t know how long! Felt GREAT.

Needless to say, as soon as dinner was done, I took a nice fresh HOT up of coffee upstairs, turned on the new little fan and the iron and started in on all those little seams.

Always a big step when things become nice and flat.
