Today is a day of thanks. It's a time to eat good food, and appreciate that we have the ability to do that. That food is abundant here in the US. That we have roads on which to travel to family and friends. That we can choose to celebrate or not. I'm thankful for:
Me, that I have learned to be true to myself, and be who I am.
My family, that I have a great relationship with most of them, and that love is truly a part of my life with them.
My Daisy, that I am able to share my life with a wonderful dog who loves me, and enjoys doing whatever it is I'm doing.

I am so tired of hearing how it's all the unions fault that Chicago is loosing jobs. Don't people deserve to earn a decent wage for a job they do? Should we all be making $8 and hour? Until the people of this country (and others) decide that a living & decent wage is what people should make, and be willing to pay for that we are not going to recover. Quit looking for a deal and instead make sure you're supporting living wages.

It's been kind of an odd week so far. I haven't been able to really get locked into work this week. Wonder if it's the stars or me? I did have a new service I wanted to share called Aardvark. vark.com where you can ask and answer questions. I had run into a problem last week and did get some timely responses and ones that were helpful. I've answered about 5 questions so far. You can use a phone, the internet or an instant messenger service. I'm hoping it keeps building, and that I do indeed get answers to quick questions.

I did it! I learned Drupal, and have put it into action. I still have a bit (ha!) to learn, but I have a blog, and a how to section. uNeedStuff is now being run on Drupal. I've been playing around with Drupal for almost 3 years. I knew I wanted to build with it, but honestly it's confusing if you are not a coder. It's getting better and version 7 looks totally rockin.

What you will find here is help, suggestions, and how to for programs I use, and my clients use. As always, if you have a question or suggestion, contact me and I'll do what I can to help.

Circuit City is back online, but it's not really Circuit City, not the Circuit City I loved. I just can't understand what happened, and why anyone would have shopped at Best Buy over them. Their return policy was so much better, and they actually listened to you. This new Circuit City is just a name.
