Crossposting Not Working

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

I still haven’t got the ability to crosppost between this blog, Twitter and FaceBook. It;s not that it isn’t possible, quite a few people do it. It’s that I don’t know what I’m doing.
Not the first time this situation has ever come up.

New Functionality

Sunday, January 10th, 2010

Facebook has been killing my blogging, so I have decided to add a plug-in that will allow me to crosspost my stuff.  This is a test of that.

Stir Crazy

Friday, December 18th, 2009

I’m a doer.  And borderline ADD.  So normally I’m flitting from one thing to the next and staying busy, even if that doesn’t generally translate into getting alot of things done.  Sitting around the house and not working on it are driving me ever so slightly mad.  It is, of course, getting worse by the [...]

Asides

My back still hurts from the surgery.  I am cautiously calling the whole thing a success because the pain down my legs is lessened to a certain degree, but I still get some pain.  I’m pretty sure that the current pain is a result of the surgery and may lessen as I heal up.  That’s what [...]

So Far, So Good

The back surgery was Wednesday and I can still walk and feel my feet, so we’ve eliminated the worst-case scenarios.  There is still quite a bit of pain and discomfort from the surgery itself, but that is not unexpected.  The goal of the operation was to eliminate the sciatic nerve pain and that part has [...]

The Roof, The Roof

They are ripping the shingles off of my sunporch as I type this.  The water leak that I repaired awhile back had done more damage than I suspected.  Time to rip it off and start over.  They are going to replace the plywood in several spots and reflash and reshingle the sunporch.  This started out [...]

Really

It’s sad when you stop going to your own eponymous blog.

Losing Bits Of Yourself

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

Over the past month I’ve lost little bits of myself, both literally and figuratively.  On August 1st I had an appendicitis and had my appendix removed on the same day.  So that was the first little bit.  Honestly, I didn’t mind losing it.  It had become a huge irritation.
On the 6th floor of University Hospital [...]

Taylor In The South

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

My goddaughter, Taylor, is in town visiting for a few weeks and we got the chance to meet up with her Monday night.
I really can’t go on enough about what a delightful, smart, beautiful young lady she has become.  I’m so proud of her.

Still Grinding

Friday, July 17th, 2009

The work on the Den/Kitchen/Laundry Room continues. I’ve missed my first deadline of having everything done by today so that they could install the cabinets. There was extra work involved in repairing floor joists and other infrastructure that I did not anticipate.
2 weeks from today, though, we should be rekitchened.
