My website was hacked yesterday, which you probably realized if you tried to view it and you were unable to.
I’m so happy to have it up and running again (thank you to my web gal extraordinaire, Caryn!).
But you know what? It was a reminder of how much I really enjoy connecting with you via my online journal. It felt like I was missing an arm yesterday. Or like someone tied my hands behind my back and I couldn’t share my thoughts via my fingers flying across the keyboard.
This place, while here on the web is so “public” it also feels so much like home to me. To feel connected with you – to know you are there in your own cozy little place, reading my thoughts. So thank you! Thank you for being here. I’m glad we are now once again connected.
I had to share with you this adorable construction dachshund my mom gifted to John a few weeks ago. Now John can’t say he’s alone running his construction business anymore.
As you might recall, we started out with three employees, two of which we had for over 12 years, who left last year. Then our last employee, Joe, left in November.
It was an interesting transition. And as John has eased into a new way of doing business, he is loving being on his own. It’s been great seeing how happy he is, even though he was unsure how he was going to handle being a one man operation.
But he’s never alone, as I’m here to be his support when he needs to talk things through. Kyie and Gidget here to remind him of what matters. And well, his new construction buddy that hangs out on the ledge of his office window to make him smile when he may feel overwhelmed. Would this little guy be considered a construction muse like I have writing muses?
I’ve yet to think of a name for him. He has to have a name. Any suggestions?
