Erik makes me work long hours without pay

Since the last post, the site is coming together rather well. The horizontal menu bar under the logo up there (the logo properly being referred to as the "Atomic A" for you trivia buffs) has some things that you've probably seen before and I'm going to try to get the site back up to being as useful as it was before we decided to change everything.

Why are we changing everything? Well, it seems right now like I'm just doing it for the sake of doing it. I swear that is only somewhat true, but not entirely true.

The real motivation behind it is that we're going to try to actually make our website more useful, both for us Family members and also for you friends of the Family. The issue became that it would be a lot easier to make the website more useful if we just completely scrapped the old one and replaced it with something a bit more modular and user friendly. As long as we had to replace the entire platform, we figured that we might as well update the look a bit and keep things fresh.

So what does this mean for you? This means that I am going to beg for your patience over the next couple weeks while I try to get everything back on track around here. I just gave Erik his login to the site earlier today, so I imagine it's just a matter of time before he starts logging in and posting his own half-baked ramblings about why he loves Billy Joel. That should keep things interesting around here while we try to get all the nerdy crap working.

That's about it!

PEACE OUT GIRL SCOUT,
