So I don’t really have an excuse as to why I have been so lazy with my blog here. I have been really busy at work and my family and I have been really busy as well. We sold our home and are building a new one at the moment. While we are waiting for it to be built we are living with family scattered all over. It is going ok but I must say that I am getting sick of living out of a suitcase. The new home should be done sometime in mid December. To make all of this more fun we are expecting our second little girl sometime in early January. So we are really really hoping they get the new house done on time.

Work has been really busy as well. We have felt the hit of the economy but overall we have been staying really busy. Things are starting to pick up more and more with us each week as well. I am finishing up some projects right now and then I will post all the new completed websites in the portfolio section. I really want to start posting again here so bare with me and my suitcase living lifestyle and I will be posting again more often soon. Thanks for reading.

I noticed a while back that when I added Shadow Box as the modal popup in the portfolio section that it broke the validation to my site. I’m sure it can be fixed and was probably something I did. I just need to find the time to get the kinks out. Or should I even worry about it? That brings up an interesting question. I have worked with a lot of web devs and some don’t care a lick about validating code while others are really strict about it. I have always though of myself to be in the middle. I like my code to validate and I’ll put some extra effort in to get it validated. It just makes me feel good. I don’t shun websites that don’t fully validate though. What are your thoughts on validation? Should all sites on the web validate when tested by W3 or should we not care?
