SMTP Authentication
Like so many other articles on this subject, I will start by saying that I looked at various documents, but none of them worked perfectly for me, so I will write up my own steps. Most of the regular readers of this blog will not care at all about SMTP authentication, TLS, SSL, port 25, 465, 587,... (More)

Jon Goes To The ER
Based on an excruciating headache Wednesday afternoon, October 12, that did not go away, Jon and I headed to West Penn Hospital Emergency Room at 10:30pm. A friend came to the house to watch Jonathan while he slept. Here is an aside - it was so good for Jonathan that he did not come, he would... (More)

Internet
Since it appears that Speakeasy is not going to be able to figure out how to reconnect our internet, at least for a while, I got internet working simultaneously on our desktop and our laptop this morning.The trick is that the laptop has the modem, and only has a wireless network connection to the...

Visiting Canada, Part I
Thursday morning, we drove up to Jon's Aunt Janet's place in Hamilton, Ontario. We stopped at "our" Wal-Mart at the two hour mark for a bathroom break and to buy some snacks. (I think we've stopped there every time we go that way - it must just be at a good break point.) Going through customs... (More)

What Does an X-Ray Machine Sound Like?
The line at security at the Orlando International Airport was short and quick. There was only one man in front of us to go through the x-ray machines. He had a lot of stuff (now that I think about it, way too much for legal carry-on) and he had to take his laptop out of its bag, etc. Since were... (More)

House in NH
Mom found this house while canoeing in the Merrimack River, and thinks it is just perfect for us. It does look great! There is a lot of land (13 acres) and a lovely place for the Black Rabbit to launch from. We have gotten used to Pittsburgh housing prices, so anything is a shock, but this... (More)

Dr.Seuss
Jonathan has fallen in love with Dr.Seuss. He will quote from the books while we are doing other things, and laugh - "Pat, cat, No, that!" He also can identify most of the words in Hop On Pop, likely at this point by the illustrations rather than the words themselves. One thing that I really... (More)

Tiptoes, Gate, Zero
On Tuesday, Jonathan discovered how to stand on tiptoes, and he thought it was great fun and asked me to "Watch!" him and share in his joy. Yesterday, he figured out how to open the front gate. So now keeping him inside the fence is truly a matter of discipline and not force. But he understands... (More)

He Has A Good Memory
As I was changing a diaper, I thought I heard Jonathan say "eechee", so I said, "eechee, nee, san" (which is my own personal spelling of the sounds of the Japanese for one, two, three.) Then Jonathan said, "Aunt Janet! Jump. [giggles] Eechee, san. Aunt Janet!" He was recalling the fun time... (More)

Ergonomics
At my last job, I discovered that after I gradually developed some pain in my shoulders that my desk needed to be raised. When I got to DynaVox, I raised my chair and desk approximately 4 inches. My monitor is raised an additional 4 inches, based on the advice of some ergonomic web site that... (More)

One, Two...
In situations where it's fun to count down (jumping, etc.) Jonathan will now say, "one... two..." He doesn't seem to want to say three, but the first two are very clear. We were playing outside today, on our furniture cart, riding it down the very gentle incline of our "yard." When I pushed off,... (More)

Children's Museum
Grammy decided that it would be fun to go to the Children's Museum , and boy was she right! This place is so so so so fun. There's so much stuff to do and explore, for ages infant to 100! Now that Grammy got us introduced, I think Jonathan and I will go often, by ourselves and with friends.... (More)

States
Jonathan and I have finished the state outlines and are now learning the placement of the states within the US map. The bits comprise an outline map with the state in question filled in with red. Some of the New England states are hard to see. I wondered if Jonathan would follow, but now I... (More)

One Year Older, One Waist Size Bigger
Heather and I went shopping for jeans yesterday; Heather to try to find jeans that don't have the new low-cut waist line, and me to replace some worn out pairs that have spontaneously ripped when doing various projects around the house. I have always had trouble finding jeans that fit,... (More)
