Someone out there had a really helpful list of potentials, but for various reasons, none of them suited me. I wondered whether I could make ( Read more... )

A Very Pleasant Realization

Last night, as I drifted off to sleep, Bob and I were talking, and I said that in the past few years, especially the last year, I would see the end of the weekend, and look at the coming week very differently than I do now. I looked at each coming day differently now, I said, not just the weekend. Before, I might think ( Read more... )

For Those Using the Google Drive/gdURL.com Image Hosting Process

I discovered yesterday that gdURL.com has slightly changed how it appears to operate. It confused the hell out of me when I tried to use it yesterday; it seemed to be providing me with gobbledygook partial code rather than the complete URL it previously would provide as a permalink to ( Read more... )

This Saturday Was A Good Day

Saturdays aren't always good days, but this one was a good one.

Gratitude Redux

1. I'm grateful that today is Friday - it's always good to know I have a two day vacation coming up!
2. I'm grateful that the weather predicts a partly sunny day, and that I have a lovely sweater to wear in the March chill. 
3. I'm grateful that today is the day I'm paid, which will cover our mortgage this month. 
4. I' m grateful that ( Read more... )

Grateful, DelayedI missed Tuesday and Wednesday, largely because I'm me and can't seem to hold to any kind of schedule, but partly because I was extremely angry about something yesterday, the day I'd planned to catch up on Tuesday, and ended up not being able to look for things about which I could be grateful ( Read more... )
