Good news/bad news

Good news: My computer is more or less running well after its wipe and reinstall. Somehow the built-in Microsoft database protocols that programs like Excel and Adobe Photoshop Album depend on got hosed. That's why you haven't seen any updates to the Ellie photo gallery for some time - it's not that I haven't been taking them, God knows! So things are happier, I think. We'll see, once I get everything installed, configured and just the way I like it.

Bad news: Despite being ever so thorough in my backing up before the reinstall, I managed to miss one very important set of files - my web site. DOH! =( Since everything is published and reasonably up to date, it won't be an immedate issue. Also, the blog will continue to work just fine. But I'm not going to be able to make any changes to the main site without recreating everything. That'll be a lot of work... possibly fun, but a lot of work, just the same. I expect that will be a summer project.
