After playing with the new WordPress system (2.0.2) on the Allure Authors website, I finally upgraded my main site with the new software. The upgrade was simple and easy. Aside from the backing up of my database and a few key files, the upgrade itself took less than 5 mins. (Love that about WP)
I waited for a variety of reasons, not the least of which was plug-in compatibility. My main site has only a couple plug-ins. One was made obsolete by the upgrade, but I found a suitable replacement. My blog, however, is plugged-in and hacked from here to Sunday. Not by the designer, but by me. I always want new techie toys. 
So I may hire out the upgrading of my blog, and then someone else can curse, sweat, and heart-race themselves through it. 
*****Update*****
I did it myself. Took much longer, due to the need to diasable everything, but it went off without a hitch and now I’m hooked up. *g*
Yes, I’m a geek. I can’t help it.
In other news, I lost 5 lbs this past week. Yay!!! :dance:
Cole!
Yay! That’s awesome that you’re feeling better and not hungry! :dance: Here’s to hoping we both lose all the weight we want. *g*
As you probably noticed, I’ll need to work on my smilie situation eventually, since they’re not showing up properly in the comments and posts. But that will have to wait until another day…

Yeah Sylvia! I’m glad to hear that someone else was able to do the upgrade thing themselfs. Gives me hope! I’m not looking forward to the day they announce another upgrade. I know that I’ll figure it all out when the time comes but I’d really rather not. It would probably be cheaper to hire it out but I’m too stubborn and well… don’t like the idea that a silly computer was able to get the best of me.
Also I just wanted to say thanks for reminding me that there is more then one way to loose weight. Last week your comment about using Atkins clicked in my brain. I’d used it a several years ago with great success but tend to do a high protein weight watchers for matinence. Well, I had another child two years ago and have been trying to use just WW with out much success. Starving would be my number one complaint. And yet when I read your post I suddenly remembered how well this had worked for me and started it! I feel great (not starving and full of energy!!)and can’t figure out why my brain was turned off for so long when I had used this before?!
Thanks! And also a huge congrats on loosing so much! :dance: Have a great day!
