Yes! Ok, probably. Maybe. We'll see.

I'm thinking of starting up this blog again.  Maybe.  Probably. For all intents and purposes, yes. 

I took an extended leave of absence these past 4 months for family visits, friend visits, vacations... and time to ponder the narcissism of this whole blog thing.  I was having conflicting thoughts about the whole "me" culture and how it has been exploited to the point of nonsense.  But I'm okay with that now, am actually comfortable with it.  Facebook and status updates have made me realize just how much I missed blogging, and how much I do actually need to focus on myself once in a while.

And don't think I forgot about the redesign. I'm working on it. Still. I have so many ideas, so much creative energy, but neither the talent or time to implement them all. Needless to say, the chance to design something new was one of the first reasons I decided to keep writing on Knee Deep in Life. I'm such a nerd.

Frustration in a can

If you've visited this site in the last couple of days, you've probably noticed some strangeness going on.  Then again, maybe no one has visited and I needn't worry.

I'm in the middle of a site redesign that's been on my to-do list for the past 18 months.  Through trial and error, I'm moving toward my goal, but not without craziness (and frustration!) in the process.  I haven't been to bed earlier than 3am for the past 4 days, but that's because I don't even attempt to work on it during the day with the girls.  I've learned my lesson already when it comes to that. 

And yes, this is a template and not my final design...
