*Blah* *LOL*
I couldn't think of anything else to put in the subject of this LJ entry other than "Blah". Funny how the word "Blah" can be interpreted to mean so many different feelings *LOL*
I'm just bone tired today ... maybe even overtired. I've been working day and night on my new website and managed to get everything uploaded somewhere between the wee hours of yesterday morning and the day before. It's not open yet but it will be very shortly. I would love to take a nap today but I am working on more graphics that I just can't seem to put down *LOL* It is really nice to be able to work at something I am truly enjoying without feeling pressured by it or other things.
Vinny Jr phoned us last night, he didn't tell his father he was calling me, he only told his father he wanted to make a phone call. Then he asked me if I wanted to speak with his father regarding visitation for this weekend for his two youngest sibblings...but when he held the phone away, he told his father that I wanted to speak with him (his father)instead of clearly communicating with his father that he (Vinny Jr) had merely inquired as to whether or not I wanted to speak with his father.
IT STARTS...................................... I see that parental splitting manipulation beginning to seep its way back into Vinny's mind...so I told his dad that we all are going to have to watch out for this behavior. Also, I see that desire of Vinny to want to parent his sibblings....that little "nudge" about this weekend's visitation had nothing to do with Vinny because he had already decided he was staying at his Dad's this weekend. So....my ex and I had a chat about that last night and we're going to nip it in the bud. I am certain that Vinny won't try to pull this on my hubby Justin because for one thing Vinny has learned...you can't manipulate my husband...it's like he is imune to it *LOL* So Vinny doesn't try to manipulate his stepfather *LOL* Yes, we are going to have to watch out for Vinny's manipulative behaviors *sheesh*
I am actually looking forward to a break from kids this weekend. My ex has managed to cancel more scheduled visitations in the past 8 months than he's actually had with the kids so my hubby and I have not had much togetherness time alone. The house will be very quiet and although Justin will be working Friday night, I will still be enjoying the peace in the house. We'll also enjoy the peace and quiet all day Saturday...and I'm going to try to pursuade my ex to keep the kids Saturday night so that hubby and I can go out for a bit. Now THAT would be wonderful!!
I'm already working on graphics for my first site update so I'm a bit ahead of the ball game now. I've made some minor HTML code changes with the site and I love my hosting service. My domain and subdomains are access logged so I can check all access and entry to each and every site I am hosting. I just download the reports and I can see all the referring URL's as well as the entire log of who has accessed all the sites. It's fantastic!! There's nothing like built in IP tracking and I've had some hot linking to my doll site but I've nipped that in the bud with a replacement graphic routed by an htaccess file...those things are DA BOMB!!
By the time I open the site, I should have a nice update and that makes me happy!! Once the site is open I'll be spending time with marketing it on the net. I've got some things already in the works which is great!! It's going to take time to build this site up but with everything having worked out so well with Vinny Jr and my ex, I can be a work at home mom which is what I have dreamed of for a while now!!
Ahhhh...time for me to get back to work.
*hugs if you need one...and cheers to all*
