Hi, everyone! I’m sorry to hear some of you are still having trouble accessing my blog. Let me just point out one more time (and don’t be surprised if I tell you again later – I want to keep this PSA at the top of the blog for people coming back to the party late). I moved my web site to a bigger, faster server over the weekend. This is good for everyone – faster load times Yay!
While I was moving my files, I decided to go ahead and clean up the file structure, so the location of the blog and the feed files has changed slightly. Now, to access my blog main page just go to www.shellykang.com. The feed has changed to http://www.shellykang.com/atom.xml – if it’s not coming up automatically for you in your feed reader, then just delete my feed from your reader, then add it back in the way you would normally add a new feed (this varies from reader to reader and browser to browser, so I’m not going to try to explain it in more detail.)
For those really interested in the technical details, I went with DreamHost as my service provider, and the reason for the file cleanup was to get rid of the old frames file structure that I used to use pre-blog to organize my picture-pages site. When I originally set up the blog, I didn’t realize that it was going to replace the picture pages so I kept the frames, but they make navigating and linking harder, so once we get past this hurdle, life will be much better!
Now for some real content for your Sunday morning enjoyment, two pictures from yesterday:
Joe working on the puzzle I bought at a garage sale last week for 50 cents. Julie has been into puzzles lately and is mostly working on 100-piece puzzles. This one is a 1,000 piece and too complicated for her right now, but Joe and I seem to have caught the puzzle bug. He seems happy putting together the detailed picture part where he can refer to the box and figure out where the piece belongs. I seem a little obsessed with getting the harder solid-blue sky part figured out before I can move on. Both of us have a hard time peeling ourselves away from the thing once it sucks us in.
We had a little backyard picnic lunch yesterday and it ended with Julie helping feed Sophie some of the last bits of her Chipotle burrito bowl. It was incredibly cute.
Please let me know if you have additional problems with the blog after trying what I explained above. I do want to make it work better so you will all keep coming back.
I used to be positively obsessed with puzzles. When my DH was in Iraq & Afghanistan, I couldn’t bear to watch TV. It was either too sad, or too happy, or too something. So I would sit up late into the night doing jigsaw puzzles while listening to the radio. Very theraputic.
Of my 2 kids, one of them is great at puzzles and loves them, the other one can’t tolerate them.
Once I started knitting again, my puzzle table became my knitting table. I don’t have time for both hobbies, but whenever I visit my mom we buy a puzzle to work on together. She always does the sky.
Such a cute picture of your girlies!
Hi Shelly, will the blankie tutorial be available again? When I click on it I get page not available?
Julie got her hair cut! Very cute that your girls are dressed like twinsies.
New version blog working fine! Thanks for your attention.

I finally made it! I was clicking on my bookmark, but I ended up having to google you to find you again.
I’m glad did. I’ve missed your blog.
