Getting to the site...

I'm hoping to start posting on the site soon. After being sick for nearly two weeks and then trying to play "catch up" on all of my work for both of my businesses (or I guess all three), it's been crazy trying to find any free time. With this site going live shortly, most of the time I've been able to put into it has been into new features (see the online User Directory, the recommended reading list under Resources, a handful of bug fixes, etc).

Good news regarding my health though (for those who were in the loop of the living nightmare I was going through). In the end, after everything else was resolved (no more upper respiratory infection, no more panic/anxiety issues, no more breathing problems, etc), I find that I have obstructive sleep apnea. I guess in my test I woke up some 100+ times over the 8 hour period, averaging about 18 episodes per hour (periods where I either struggled to breathe or could not at all) and had over 30 minutes worth of breathing problems throughout the night. No wonder why I was finding myself tired throughout the days! The good news that I mentioned at the beginning of the paragraph is that since we know what it is and it is easily treatable, within a week I'll be able to get proper sleep and hopefully everything else I was going through related to that will fall right into line. I can't say I'm excited about wearing the Darth Vader mask (ok, CPAP mask) to bed every night... but hey, if it works, I don't care at this point...

Alright, I'm out to get to work on more features... let me know what other things would be useful for making this site as helpful as possible.
