    My four year old daughter, Heather, had her first ballet recital last night. It was a very proud moment for me. She had to wear a little makeup for the lights and with hair up, she looked beautiful but older and that was emotional. I have some things saved up. Architecture/Software Design I am so tired...

  • Refurbished New Home Site

    I have been working with the Office Live Services Beta for some months now. They just went live with my site over the weekend (although I still have to work on the domain name transfer) and it looks pretty good! I have a new Header and Home Page design.

  • Windows Workflow 102 or WF Part 2

    So, last time around , I left off at the issue about my struggles with the ExternalDataService that ships in WF and purports to be the general mechanism to get data in and out of a workflow.
