March Already!?

Where does the time fly?

DD has been sick all week. We kept her out of school on Monday and Tuesday (she'd been sick with a cold since the weekend), and she decided herself that she wanted to go back to school yesterday. She brought home her papers and we worked through the things she had missed together. However, she ended up going to bed early, around 5:45 p.m. I hope this is the only cold she gets this winter!

Spring is on the horizon. The dogs have been restless, wanting to go outside all the time to try and chase the rabbits that live in the yard. Or maybe Mag wants to get those mean leaves that drift past. :)

For the past couple of days, I've been looking for a site where I can start up my diary again. The diary was always a place where I wrote longer, more thoughtful entries. The blog is where I write about the daily stuff. D-X is going to be reborn in a different way, though. It will take awhile to get everything back up and running. They need money for hosting at present, and they've gotten about half of what they need. If the new site is like the old site, then I shall definitely re-start my journal there. At the moment, I'm trying out WordPress and resurrecting my Diaryland site as a mirror. Not much there at present. (I've got to figure out where I can host some images. I'm annoyed at my avatar not showing up on the blog.) :)

Needless to say, last night I backed up all my writing from my laptop, my PC, and whatever of my D-X I could find in the waybackmachine archive to floppies and to a USB drive. I know that those storage devices can fail, but at least I bothered to do a backup. Nothing lasts forever.

Not much else has been going on with me lately. I've been watching a lot of movies, which I'll get around to posting about soon, and reading a few books, like "Night" by Elie Wiesel.
