I only get one day off per week, now that it is swimming pool season, and I have spent most of it trying to figure out how to put a blog on our company web site.

I don’t have it there yet.  I started this one and put it on my own website so I could get the bugs all worked out before I put something messed up on the big site.  Who knew it would be so confusing?  I have made more websites than I can remember, and currently maintain six sites that I built from scratch.  Why is blogging hard?

 The other night I was awakened, briefly, in the middle of the night by a short beep on my cell phone.  I didn’t notice until later in the day that I had a text message.  I don’t normally get text messages, so I hadn’t associated the beep from my phone, and by the time I looked at it I was getting ready for work.

I saw that it was from my son Dana, and took a quick look at the photo on my phone.  For some reason, I thought it was a screenshot from Darkstone, the antiquated game I am playing on my dual core laptop.  Dana had laughed at me for dusting off the old disc and polishing it with Pledge to fix the scratches (try it!, it works better than those fancy disc polishing contraptions).  He said it was much easier to just download the game.  I guessed he had done just that, so he could also play the antiquated game he used to love.  It looked like he had taken a picture of the final battle of the game, at the entrance to Draak’s lair.

It wasn’t until today, when I looked again, that I saw that the picture seemed to be something else and I uploaded it to my computer for a better look.  HA!! It is really a picture of Dana sitting on some sort of missiley thing at the base in Pensacola.  He works nights at a post.  And works really hard, as you can see!
