Well, today is a big day at Trish Knits.com. It’s my first full day using WordPress Version 2.8. I can attest that the upgrade has been relatively painless. And the photo uploader that has had an incompatibility with my version of Flash seems to be fixed. This alone was worth the upgrade, because I had been using the backup uploader for a long time, which is a lot slower.

Other than that, I haven’t found too much new around here that impacts my usage in either a good or bad way. If I find anything exciting enough to report, I will, but this seems a little less like a full version upgrade than I was expecting. There’s probably a lot more on the back end that a mostly casual user such as myself could never understand.

But wouldn’t you know it, I can now upload and manage my photos a lot easier, and I broke my USB hub? So I can’t connect my card reader to the computer until I get a new one. That kinda sucks, but the new one will be here on Monday. So, until then, I will be photoless.

In the meantime, I bought some card-making supplies today. Mod Podge, colorful papers, some cutting tools, etc. I think I need some more stuff, like those little die cutters that make fun shapes and stuff. Last week I bought some confetti, and some card stock that will go through my printer, that has a feathered edge. I really want to pretty up the knitted note cards I’ve been making. I think this could get really addictive.

Pssst… have you heard? Knit Picks is having a yarn sale. Oh yeah, I ordered. Don’t tell anyone, K?

Tomorrow is Worldwide Knit in Public Day. I’ll be at the Bowie Borders with my peeps at 2 p.m. If you’re in the neighborhood, come on by and knit a spell! We’d love to have you.
