#WordPressWednesday is here for another week. I’ve been off and on with trying to be consistent with posting this weekly roundup. This week is a little light due to the fact that I just presented 2 presentations at WordCamp Kansas City 2014, and have some family issues with my stepmom just diagnosed with having 6 months to live… she’s had cancer for a little over 2 years, and recently came out of remission. So, things have been hectic.
They still are, but blogging won’t get done by itself, and frankly, I’ve been a poor webmistress lately. So, here’s to getting the weekly WordPress roundup that is lovingly called #WordPressWednesday.
I’ve conveniently allowed the links for each article to open in a new window so you don’t lose this article.
