This happens each year so I don’t know why I’m surprised. We are all wickedly sick. Chest cough stuff or head cold stuff or whatever the flavor of the month is, I honestly don’t know. Our immune systems are at a serious disadvantage after all our Mexican sun and never a flu season so . . . → Read More: the best laid plans

I think I fried the CPU on my laptop. It has been running hot for a while and I’d hoped I could stay its death sentence with Arctic Silver, but alas, it seems to have died an honorable death. I have frequently backed up the files and programs and I’m hoping I’ll be able . . . → Read More: Aaaack For some that would be a nightmare, but for me it is the result of watching my intake and increasing my exercise level. I was 90 kilos about 7 or 8 weeks ago and I have been working hard to get rid of these 5 kilos. My dad is down some 20 pounds so . . . → Read More: Eighty-five kilos I have just compiled a database of all our online and hardcopy (very little) financial information and how to access it. I started at about 8:30am and just finished. Yikes! I had no idea it would be so difficult. I stored everything on an external drive and used Kee-Pass to encrypt the data.

That was . . . → Read More: WordPress PSA If you are a Democrat (or wish to vote Democrat, I suppose), you do not need to establish a US address and file a voter registration for that state.

I am working on it though, and hope to tackle the dreaded inbox after a long infusion of rum (as I don’t believe I have the courage to even approach it without some . . . → Read More: my inbox My hosting company is physically moving their datacenter, so Monday this site will be down for 4-8 hours. Also, by that time, I PROMISE to return all the comments and lovely emails. I’m too embarrassed to say how many there are and how old they are. Now, carry on. |
