Week in Review
This week, I started the custom coding part of the WordPress Thesis Customziation series. Again, because of the length, I am going to further break it down into smaller sections, and this week’s part covers the custom background, header, navigation and sidebar setup.
Mac vs. Windows Humor
My husband found this pretty hillarious, so I thought I’d share it with you!
