Happy Leap Day!

Another month has gone by, and things have been busy.  In addition to all the normal crazy that is life with kids, I have been elected to the kids pre-school board of directors.  Now, the oldest two no longer go there, but the youngest will be there another year, any my term is three years, so there will be a bit of time when I will not have a kid there.  They did ask me before, but that was years ago, and I was not in a position to be able to do that back then.

In other, but more geeky, news, February saw me running `FreeBSD <http://www.freebsd.org>`_ as my OS for the month.  There was only one thing in which I needed Linux for, and it was `something I know I could do under FreeBSD </posts/2014/03/freebsd-challenge-day-4-6.html>`_, but I had not set up my machine to run that program yet.  Will I keep it up?  Probably, although the lack of supported sleep on the current laptop, an Acer C720 Chromebook, is a major downer.  I may need to see if I can do something about it, as it appears to work fine under Linux.
