Since I’ve been spending more time at home because of my car accident and injuries, I’ve been spending more time on the Internet.  At first it was curiousity, wondering what is so fascinating that keeps the rest of my family glued to the computer for so many hours of the day?  A few months after I was injured my wife got tired of me asking her to send email messages to my family and friends and she set me up with my own email account and taught me how to use it!  Well, after that I was hooked!  She showed me her blog, and explained what she did with it and helped me set up my own blog.  (You’re reading it!)  Since my physical activities have become so limited I’ve become quite intrigued with figuring out the hows, whats, whos and whys of the Internet and am thinking about setting up a web page dedicated to the business that I’m working on – classic car consulation. 

From what I understand I will need to buy my own domain, and a web hosting service.  My wife suggested that I might learn quite a bit about the Internet by reading the web hosting blog put on the Internet by the webhostinggeeks, so I’ve started reading that.  Some of it is still confusing to me, because I’m a beginner, but I have to admit that it has taught me quite a bit!
If you are thinking about getting a new webhosting service, check out the recommondations at the webhostinggeeks.com website before making a commitiment; it’s worth a read!

The past couple of days the weather has been really crazy. It’s difficult for my wife to figure out what to wear to work – she’s been working part time the past couple of months as a substitute school bus driver until she can find a better paying full time job. (That’s going to be hard to do because school bus drivers get paid pretty well!) Anyway, as I was saying, the crazy weather has made it hard for her to figure out what to wear – the school buses don’t warm up very quickly so when she leaves the house in the morning it is in the 30’s (and this morning it was mixed precipitation!) but by the middle of the day it is in the 50’s.

So she has been dressing in layers and peeling off clothes as the bus (and day) warm up, but it is still a challenge to figure out how many layers, and exactly how warm each layer should be!  She has been catching a lot of colds and I suspect that is probably due largely to her being exposed to so many weird weather conditions (in addition to be subjected to the germs the kids have!)  I’ll be glad when she gets a job where she doesn’t have to worry about the outside temperature and how many layers of clothes to wear!
