Back in Black

It’s been about a month since my last post and three days since I quit my job.  I have some applications in but I’m not terribly serious about jumping right back into things.  I’ve enjoyed these last few days immensly and the free time is allowing me some personal time to work on my side projects.  When working, I’d rarely use my free time to work on these things and often found myself winding down from working all day or relaxing and doing nothing on the weekends.  I’ve also saved up on many posts that get neglected and back logged for future moments.  Those will be showing up after I finish my number 1 priority: Brolly Hut.  It’s pretty shabby as it is now and it had really only been a placeholder so that no one else was able to purchase the domain.  Since Monday, I have been working on a full site redesign with primary focus on getting the menu online for our customers.  With Katie’s guidance and opinions, I’ve grown very happy with how it has been coming along.  I look forward to revealing it soon.  WordPress has become my favorite Content Management System (CMS) to date.  I tried using Joomla but found its complexity too difficult to manage.  WordPress keeps things simple.  I’m an amatuer web designer at best and often wonder if it’s something I should pursue more professionally.  With what I have learned about WordPress in the last few days, I would love to redesign Emuzines again…some other time maybe.
