Once again I'm forced to apologize for my lacking attendance to this place but as some of you may know, moving is a royal pain in the arse. But I'm happy to report that as of last Friday at about 12:30pm central time, Chrissy and myself have officially become home owners, which translates to a ton of debt and a list of little projects about a mile and a half long!Despite the extra work and money involved, we must admit it feels good to have our house and it definitely feels more like home than our apartment did. Most everything is unpacked and slowly but surely we're making the place our own, we even started painting the living room last night.
I will make sure to post some pics once we have everything how we like it, and remember as a fringe benefit to being a village member, you're always welcome in our home!
As for the site, obviously work has been slow the last few weeks just because of the move but now that things are starting to settle down again I'm starting to turn my attention back to the site. My goal is to have the CMS piece done within a few weeks and then focus on the Fan-Fic which needs a lot of work. Once the mainwebsite is ready to go we're going to do a phased go live with the RPG, what this means is that the site will be live and the RPG will be there but it will not be active until later. The reason for this is that the RPG will require a lot of additional work and I would like to have the site up before I focus on this. That way you can see the progress and we can leave some of the down sides of Ikonboard behind.
As always I'll keep you updated on my progress.

Nice one Mick.I would give anything to get a place of my own, but things are just too damn expensive here

well you could easily get a place over here, you just need to be prepared to live without a few things...... like most of your internal organs!

Internal organs are over rated anyhow.Sounds good mick and dun worry about it.
I may take you up on the offer, so be careful offering it so lightly

Congrats on becoming a home owner and welcome to the big bad world of mortgages. We will try to come over some time for a visit, once we have finished everything else on list that we have to save for.

Congrats on officially owning your new house now. Hope your debts and jobs to do can be dealt with no problems, the debt is a tricky one though lol. Best of luck Mick.
