Hello world!
Welcome to Leonny's site! If you're new at Everyday Things and you enjoy the site, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. This way you'll be notified whenever there's a new post! Thanks for visiting!
Here’s a little announcement from me just in case you haven’t noticed : this site is now powered by Wordpress!
[Btw, this site is apparently BEST VIEWED using Firefox browser. If you're using Internet Explorer, the page will most likely appear cluttered, with bold texts. Am trying to fix this problem yeah]
Previously I did everything the ‘old-fashioned’ way : in HTML. And knowing that I need to switch to a more user-friendly publishing platform sometime anyway, I feel it’s better if it’s done sooner than later.
So after getting some positive advice from a few friends, I finally braved myself to venture into something completely new. I decided to go ahead, invest the time and move ALL of my content over, once and for all!
It was frankly a HARD decision for me to make, because other than the fact that I’m so NOT a technical person, I need to manually transfer over three years worth of blog posts (more than 650), learn how CSS codes work from scratch and find out how certain things fall into place at Wordpress. So yes, since I began it all last month, it’s been a long and painful process for me (not to mention the mind boggling technical hiccups!).
Anyway.
I’m keeping the look and feel of the site similar to what I had before (I prefer a clean minimalist look), BUT there are new features here!
Here are some new changes :
>> I now have categories!
You can now click and read stories about my two kids, on parenting, marriage and relationships, inspiring values and life principles that keep me going, activity ideas for kids, etc.
>> There’s a little section on the right where a different list of posts on parenting will show at random each time you visit this site
>> I’ve got RSS and a list of possibly related posts at end of each blog entry for easier reading and reference to my older posts
>> I now have a comment section (and please please do make full use of it as I’d love to hear from you!)
>> Some of my photos are on Flickr too now! (and I’ll regularly upload them there)
Right now I’m still in the process of transferring all my older posts and pages.
So please do stay with me and feel free to browse around.
Enjoy!
PS: A HUGE thanks goes to our good friend, Willson Cuaca, for helping me iron out some frustrating technical issues!
