Otherwise, why would I schedule two major facelifts in December.<\/p>\n<p class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3227\" title=\"red and white metal stool\">No, no, not cosmetic surgery.<br \/>\nA refinishing project.<br \/>\nAnd revamping this website.<br \/>\nThe kind of facelifts I was sure would be quick and painless.<br \/>\nHah!<\/p>\n<p class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3227\" title=\"red and white metal stool\">My husband thought refinishing Mom&#8217;s old red and white stool was craziness. &#8220;Don&#8217;t ask me to help you with it,&#8221; was his response when I dragged it onto the porch. But when all by myself, I found someone who would sandblast and prime it for $20 bucks, he relented. Pretty soon, he was removing screws and demonstrating the finer points of spray painting and sanding. Near the end of the project which took much longer than I expected, when it was evident the stool was going to be bright and cheerful in it&#8217;s new life as a plant stand, he even said, &#8220;It&#8217;s kind of fun doing a project like this together.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3227\" title=\"red and white metal stool\">No, no, revamping this website was not very fun.<br \/>\nEven with the nicest tech guy in the world doing the tricky stuff.<br \/>\nEven though I hoped he could take care of the WordPress part while I ate bon bons.<br \/>\nBut instead I needed to learn to do it, following &#8220;simple website tutorials.&#8221;<br \/>\nHah!<\/p>\n<p class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3227\" title=\"red and white metal stool\">On the back end of the revamp, my personal opinion is that the words &#8220;simple&#8221; and &#8220;website&#8221; should never appear next to each other in a sentence. Or in the same sentence. Or paragraph. Or tutorial. Also, one of those two words should be banned from the internet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3227\" title=\"red and white metal stool\">Even though I&#8217;m still working through some emotional issues related to revamping, the website is up and running. It may take a month or so to work out some snafus. For example, to have daily posts delivered to your website, you&#8217;ll need to sign up for the RSS feed on <a href=\"http:\/\/jolenephilo.com\/staging\/\" target=\"_blank\">the home page<\/a> (near the top, on the right) as the old feed and the old site no longer exist. And you&#8217;ll need to get used to typing the new, short and simple address &#8211; jolenephilo.com &#8211; in your URL bar. Hopefully, the revamped site will be so much easier to load, read, navigate, search, and make comments that you won&#8217;t mind those minor, one time inconveniences.<\/p>\n<p class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3227\" title=\"red and white metal stool\">No, no, this is not a sales pitch.<br \/>\nYou pay no money, and you comments are appreciated.<br \/>\nI&#8217;ll even reply to them, which often was prevented on the old site due to tech glitches.<br \/>\nAnd because of my tendency to overschedule, which won&#8217;t happen in January.<br \/>\nHah!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apparently, I didn&#8217;t think getting ready for Christmas, scheduling a blog tour for Different Dream Parenting, doing a half-dozen author radio interviews, and helping the kids move to Wisconsin was enough to keep me busy this month.
