This Time It’s Personal

The good, the Bad and the Ugly

The good — I’ll be done moving at the end of the evening, then the unpacking begins in earnest.

The Bad — Terrible news about a family member has got me feeling pretty low

The Ugly — It’s been well over a month since I posted here, and that’s got to stop!

That covers today’s installment…

It’s going to take a lot of work to get me back to where I need to be here. Please be patient

What’s up at Blogger?!?

Really. I just noticed (again) that I can’t search blogger powered blogs through Blogger itself if I’m logged in.

What were they thinking???

I mean, it’s bad enough that you’re stuck with a system that, even after their much touted upgrade, doesn’t begin to compare with other blogging platforms. It’s not enough that permalinks are cryptic, or that on most blogger powered blogs, the commenting system is so screwed up that you can’t even tab through the form. (A hint for the blogger programmers, it’s known as taborder… it’s an old-skool html tag that’s still valid, and goes in an input type tag… Use it!)

I say this because I’ve been hinting something that I found on blogger a while back, but I’m having a devil of a time finding it, since my GMail notifyer keeps logging me back in, and then I can’t get to the search functions anymore…

Now I’m off to log out of GMail again and see if I can find what I’m after before it logs me in again.

(and no, I can’t just turn it off, I’m waiting on something important… *sigh*)

It’s been crazy…

It’s amazing that I haven’t gotten around to posting anything in this personal little space of mine. Things have been happening all over the place, but I’ve neglected this part of my life for a long, long time.

Maybe it’s that Cooking, by the seat of my Pants! has taken over a very large part of my life. I spend at least an hour a day doing something over there. Maybe it’s the work I’ve been doing trying to get Spunpuppy up and running… I’m not sure.

What I am sure about is that I’ve ignored my personal journal completely, and I’ve got to get back into the swing of things.

For those of you who’ve never popped in, What I write here are things that inspire me, fire me up or make me go Hmmmm? There will be posts ranging from how to make a buck online, why company “x” sucks, the WTF’s of the world, and anything else. From “the baby said Daddy!” (which hasn’t happened yet.) News on the children I’m not fortunate enough to be able to be with all the time, and ramblings of little or no consequence.

This is my personal journey. If you’re looking for the meat of topics I’m a bit of an expert in, look no further than the “My other blogs” portion of the menu. you’ll get direct hits to what I’ve got a daily burning passion for there.

And with that kiddies…

Peace, I’m out.

It’s got me under pressure

Doctor visits, labs, constant hassles and medication that doesn’t seem to be doing its job. Those are pretty much the high points of the last week.

I ended up in the hospital for a respiratory illness, then following up with a doctor on base for high blood pressure. Tests were run, and I’m thankful to say that aside from the blood pressure issues, I seem to be pretty damned healthy. Unfortunately, the blood pressure is still extremely high.

normal blood pressure is something around 120/80, Mine is averaging 133/100, but the lower number (Diastolic pressure) has shot up to as high as 109, just today. (for those who don’t know, that’s dangerous.)

So now I wait on the doc, who didn’t want to see it go over 90, to see if I need to go back in for another appointment, or if she can just change my medication and have my wife bring it home.

What a friggin’ week

Apparently I have nothing personal on my mind. Otherwise I would have written something here in the past months. Pretty disturbing, really.

Actually there’s been a lot going on. A lot of thing that I’d love to take the time to rant about, just ponder the thought of, etc… The problem is that I’ve been buried up to my neck in deadlines. My food blog has been eating up more and more of my time as I prepare for the grand re-launch somewhere between today and January11th of next year.

“Re-launch? It hasn’t been dead… “

No, but the new design is so radically different that it’s requiring a lot of time to get everything ready. The main page alone has at least one component that’s going to require me to post there once per day, or at least to have daily posts on a subject ready to publish everyday. Either way, that’s 365 posts that have to be done per year, without fail, no excuses. Granted, they’re short posts and I can probably do 10 to 20 in one day, but they still have to be done. And for the moment they have to be done every year, at lest until I build a plugin to handle it.

but I digress….

I’m building a schedule for myself that should get me back to posting here at least every other day, so if you’re one of the 3 people who’s stopped by in the past few months, be warned. It’s going to get lively around here pretty soon!
