This started out as a reply to an email to Heather's parents, but I figured maybe other people are interested in the thought process about water quality. After lots of hours looking at water things today, I think we will definitely get a " MetalMaster " which gets rid of... (More)

On the Road Again...

I guess it can't much be counted as "again", since we have only moved once since we have been married, but the song popped into my head as I started to write the title of this post. Since some of you probably don't read every comment on our blog, you might have missed the announcement... (More)

Fourth Time's the Charm?

I had delayed posting this since I think people were getting tired of hearing about each house that we put an offer on. But, now that this offer has been accepted, and I don't expect too much trouble with the inspections, I figure it is safe enough to post.I said to a friend the other day,... (More)

Someday I'll Just Stay Home and Eat Bonbons

On Wednesday, we walked to the Shursave for a regular shopping trip. The only difference in this trip was the lack of milk in the bottom of the cart, since I had just gotten some at Trader Joe's. But it made a big difference for Jonathan! He pulled the cart the whole way home by himself,... (More)

More Words!

4/8 - We were reading a non-word book about getting a new baby in the house, and Noah would say "baby" perfectly as he pointed to the baby in each picture. He now says it often, sometimes referring to himself, sometimes to my tummy, sometimes to a picture of another baby, sometimes randomly.... (More)

VMWare 1.0.5 Server patch for 2.6.25 kernel

I had the privilege of installing VMWare 1.0.5 on a brand new 2.6.25 kernel. I downloaded the 2.6.XX patch for vmware 1.0.4 , applied the one change from asm to linux in vcpuset.h. That had worked for me before when using 1.0.5 on a 2.6.24 kernel, but today I downloaded a 2.6.25... (More)

And Anyone Can Install Debian Linux on a Desktop

Song of Praise to God

[ Dictation taken by Mommy. This is a song, but it was hard enough to get all the words written in time, there was no way she could write the notes as well. ] How the Lord is, is a man. Well, Lord, will lead me in the paths of righteousness. Lord God, He's the Spirit of lords.... (More)

LifeType 1.2.7 released

After a slightly hectic day yesterday, when I noticed some strange behavior on one of my servers, we released a new version of LifeType . While I am not impressed that the bug existed in the first place, I think it is pretty neat that a development fixed was released within 4 hours of... (More)

Note to Self

When a customer says that he has a smaller project than the one I just did, don't pay attention, and think about the quote, rather than simply estimating the time as less than the previous project. Yesterday, I did a project for a friend (one who let me have better access than average... (More)

Catch-up

2/9 - Jonathan: "What does special mean?" I say something about someone/thing that someone cares for. "How much do you care for me?" Well, I don't think I can really measure that. "Well, you may care for me abundantly. " 2/12 - Noah is putting the dipthongs into his "hi" and... (More)

Where Does The Time Go? (the numbers are even correct this time...)

Shortly after I posted the first analysis of my time , I realized that my hours per day calculation were kind of off, since I was counting 7 day weeks, and I basically never work on Sundays. As I am redoing the calculations, I see that I must have been doing something strange to try get... (More)

Noah Will Be A Big Brother!

Last week (actually within the span of three days) four people asked me if I am pregnant. Really, you ask? Yes, really, they did. One of them was Jonathan, whom you have read has been praying fervently for a little sister, and has not yet learned that you don't ask women that... (More)
