Hello WP2.1

January 23rd, 2007 · by map · No Comments

This upgrade to the latest version of WordPress was the easiest yet. It’s especially nice to be able to do the update remotely using FTP and have it all work so smoothly. I only use a couple plugins, and as far as I know, they’re all working OK. And I love the fact that this version’s release name is Ella. Classy.

There’s some house non-news to share. Leah and I had our first price conversation with our neighbor, and now we’re crunching numbers to see if we can afford to live in an 1,800 sq. ft. house. I’m what you would call fiscally conservative, and when I owe a debt, I feel like I’m carrying around a lead weight in my stomach. Not fun. Our parents are extraordinarily generous and kind, but they haven’t worked all their lives just to have their kids come along and gut their savings (“gut” may be a bit strong, but it’d be nice to be able to buy a new house on our own, with no help other than from the bank).  There’ll be more news on the house exchange soon, I’m sure, which you’ll know when we know.
