Every once in awhile I will get an email at my old address informing me that there is a friend I have here who has made a post. I am always amazed they still remember to send me these notices. I have come back today with some new ideas, but first I wanted to see if this journal were still here, as it says admin will delete any not updated within a reasonable amount of time. I am glad they did not delete this one. I always think of all my sites around the INTERWEBS as my wee children, and I hate it if anything bad befalls them. They are not to blame that I am an errant parent. :/

I hope everyone is doing well.

Hello again

For so long I have been gone, and so many things have happened that were not good. My mum passed away. Now I am an orphan. It's not that we were close, but things are just different now.

Currently I am on leave from my job because it got to be too stressful for me. They were giving me a layoff anyway due to economics, so I just decided to leave early. What's the point of putting yourself through hell if they dun even appreciate you anyway?

I'm involved in other things that have taken a toll. It's like I am on a roller coaster. One minute I will be all right, and then the next minute something will occur to me that plummets my feelings. I dun much like it. I used to be a lot stronger than I am now. Now I just feel like giving up. :(

I knew I had another photo of a beautiful fish around my computer somewhere, and I finally found it. You can click on the thumbnail to view the larger version. I put it up at Éire32. I didn't take it, and I would give credit if I could remember who it belonged to.

end-of
wrote me a nice comment, and I went to her site and liked her poems. She speaks of the image of a fish, and it reminded me of this pic which I like a lot. I had a beautiful little red-capped Oranda about the same time I found this pic. The wee fish did not live long, but his memory survives in this image.

"5,199 candles from 86 countries are shining.



In many different traditions lighting candles is a sacred action. It expresses more than words can express. It has to do with gratefulness. From time immemorial, people have lit candles in sacred places. Why should cyberspace not be sacred?

You may want to begin or end your day by the sacred ritual of lighting a candle on this website. Or you may want to light a birthday candle for a friend. One single guideline is all you need: Slow down and do it with full attention. From here on, you will be guided step by step."

Almost every other day in my email I will get a notice from Aeonity about someone I have subscribed to posting a new blog. I mainly signed up over here just to try out the software system and because I liked the templates. But I also like the way the webmaster lets you know when your 'friends' have made new posts or comments. That is what keeps people connected.
This is actually quite a nice little site as compared to many blogging venues I have used. It works quickly and simply. I was on one last night that sucked so bad I made a blog just to make a snarky comment about the service. It took me way to long to do it, but at least I registered my feelings. The webmaster wrote to say he didn't appreciate it. Then he proceeded to brag on his site. I KNOW, however, that my perceptions were spot on. The thing is also that this is a site which wants to charge a monthly fee after the trial period. Ha!
Just read >>Summer by Zatherus. You should too. It's about something we could all use more of.
Well, I'm dying of the heat here, so I will log off and catch a few Zzzz's.

There I was, just googling 'free blog host', more out of habit than need. Definitely no need for a new blog. I have so many now, it's kinda distracting. Then I saw this host here--the one I am going to have to concentrate on in order to be able to spell. I noticed the little pencil, and it reminded me of Livejournal. Then I saw all those flash games. Thought perhaps it was a misdirect, but no, it said blogging community. I clicked on lost_souls' blog and was hooked. Why? The template! It was very cool. Dark and transparent with the middle scrolling. I also noticed that Lost-Soul wanted to discuss something but couldn't. Uh oh--bad sign. Usually very bad sign. Don't ask I said to myself--don't make that comment. Get away. Go register yourself. So I did.
