Websites and time off

It’s official, princessleia.com and wallaceandgromit.net have been moved off of our home connection and onto a server over at Phenominet.

I still have shaman.princessleia.com on the home connection because I want Michael to have easy access to it, and 13thHour.net is still at home. But it’ll be a great relief to our connection to have my big sites off of it. Now I won’t have to worry about making my websites slow when I’m using the connection for other things. Michael won’t have to worry about a zillion hits to my sites making his radio show skip. And I won’t have to bug Michael every time I need something changed or fixed in the configuration of my websites.

All good things!

The move went well, only a few typos of mine causing havoc ;) I haven’t found anything completely broken yet. Thanks to everyone (especially and his mad skillz) who helped me out so I can get comfy in the new space, it’s made the move so much easier.

In other good news (yay more good news!), Michael and I decided this past weekend that we needed to get away. We’ve taken time off from work to go out of town 3 times this year, 2 of these were for memorial services. This is no good. We need some time to recharge and not feel weighed down with family obligations and how we “really should be fixing/cleaning $household_thing instead of sitting around the house.”

Since Michael has time off between Christmas and New Years, we figured that’d be the best time to sneak away for a few days, so I put in my request for the entire week between Christmas and New Years off (3 work days, we already get the 26th and 30th off) – and my request was granted! What will our getaway be? A B&B on the seacoast? A snuggly trip to a friend’s farmhouse in Maine? A roadtrip to a mountainous B&B in Maryland? We haven’t decided yet. But whatever it is, I want relaxation time, delicious food, bubble baths, fireplaces and snuggling. No concrete plans. No family.
