I've been helping my friend Beverly quite a lot with changes in her website VintageTeaLeaf.Com. I designed and implemented her site (with her creative help) and I manage the site, fulfilling all online tea orders too.

On another news front. I'm single again. I haven't been single since I was nineteen years old. My first relationship lasted twenty three years, and my second for seven years. I'm looking to return to the more free spirited side of me that I've been suppressing for some time now.

Two of my wonderful Wolfhounds passed away in the last two years. Sophie had Osteosarcoma (Bone Cancer)  she had not yet made her sixth birthday, and when she stopped enjoying the great food and snuggles, we let her pass away around thanksgiving of 2005. Murphey passed almost two years ago. He lived with Atrial Fibrillation (a heart condition) all his life, and at the great age of nine and a half years, passed out of my life. Murphey was my Hearthound, the one that makes such an impression on you that you doubt you could ever love another dog as much as him. With such an enormous wolfhound sized hole in my heart I began the search for a new IW puppy.

On December of 2005 my new Irish Wolfhound was born in Houston Texas at The Hounds of Killian. I named him  Egan, and he is almost ten months old as of this writing. I will put some pictures of  him up in the photo gallery soon. I truly believe that Murphey's spirit has been reincarnated in Egan. I know that many, if not most, wolfhounds have very similar personalities, but Egan has been showing knowledge beyond his years, and is such a gentle spirit already. He is on track to be a rare occurrence where one can have a SECOND Hearthound.

I guess I sorta gave up on a lot of the website work, but often feel compelled to write something here. I need to at least add some picture gallery info to keep friends updated about me, my home, and my friends and pets.

I've begun putting my autobiography back online. This time after a major re-write. The biggest changes to anyone that may have been reading it in past incarnations, will be that many of the names of people in my life have  been changed to protect the identities and privacy of my friends.

If you're just tuning in to my site, you wouldn't recognize the changes, but I'm doing a complete make over of CraigsHouse. I've had the same design elements for about four years now, and though I plan to retain some of them, I want a fresher look, with a bit more information. Stay tuned while I remake my site. I'm ditching the left side button bar, and putting the navigation at the top. This opens up the central section for more text. I'm keeping the dark color scheme, but will be adding some animated items to liven things up a bit.
