Double Happiness

We’re not dead!

January 6th, 2010

OK, so this blog went down for almost 2 months without anyone noticing, oops. 2 reason for this:

  1. I push life updates through my facebook account these days and so I have neglected the site for a while
  2. my provider auto-disables blogs which are not updated to prevent security exploit on old versions

So well, this has been rectified now, wordpress is upgraded to 2.9.1, whose admin panel looks fantastic btw, inclusive a shiny new auto-upgrade tool, which should make my life a lot easier (not that it was hard to upgrade wordpress before anyway).

On life, well… Our 2 terrors just started school this week. Not a single tear shed! They are great kids! Although Tristan is having some problem with discipline and following the class when they do boring things: stay seated for 10mn for morning assembly, walk in pair, etc. The teacher’s gonna have a hard time for sure, because he is pretty strong, and she is quite petite.

Some other stuff I posted to facebook recently: kids love cartoons, but they don’t understand Road Runner at 2.5 years old :D . Yvonne reads books in English, I show them cartoons in French, hopefully that’ll be ok to make them multilingual.

The kids are definitely real French because they have started to say stuff like “pouf”, “hop”, “toc” when they do various things. We French love to say the sound of what we do :D

I blew my savings to buy a new camera and a couple of lenses, so hopefully I will have some nice pics soon. Pics may be posted on facebook, flickr or here. *sigh*, media management is a new age problem :( .

Till later!
Tim

    I noticed it was down… but I imagined you got bored and too busy and decided to be exclusively focused on FB
    Btw Storytlr is a nice solution to aggregate all your 2.0 experience : blogging, photo sharing in flickr…

    And you may consider as well use the wordpress plugin WP-Facebook-Connect http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-facebookconnect/

    Thanks Poloch, I will definitely install the wp-facebook-connect plugin.

    I’m afraid storytlr is out of business though, on their frontpage: “Important announcement ! Storytlr will stop operating on December 31st.” . I see it’s now open source, but I don’t fancy maintaining yet another piece of software on my site :/ . I’m starting to appreciate the value of stuff-that-just-work-that-other-pple-are-taking-care-of.
