I do like the DELETE key

 It's been a morning  of struggling with computer problems.  After watching several videos on youtube, sending comments to help pages, and googling various subjects, I decided my genealogy blog on wordpress just wasn't going to happen!  Come to find out, there's wordpress.com (which I signed up for) and wordpress.org.  I think I needed the org. one but the directions to just get started left me saying:  WHAT THE HELL?  The .net one is (I think) more for making a regular webpage and going public to sell stuff. At any rate, I got sick and tired of trying to just set up a simple blog to have a place for my genealogy research notes. Blogger irritates me too but at least I know I can type away there and insert pictures easily--and I don't have to pay!

I got kind of discouraged at the lack of progress I was making so I took a sewing break. Needed to cut out pieces for the next two "Darlene" squares I'm following on Youtube. I also found some triangle pieces in material gifted me so I sewed them up. I'll add borders later to make a small lap blanket out of it.

I've been up since 6 and am already playing with the idea of recliner nap. Some days I just am tired all day long.  Did a little research on car insurance rates and discovered mine is cheaper than the others. Go figure.  I think it's way too high but I forget where I'm living sometimes.

So now...I think I'll go start blog #2 on blogger which will be reserved for keeping track of my genealogy notes.  I'm just never happy if I'm not making a new project. Ha!  Looking forward to heading to Sequim and Port Angeles tomorrow. I need to get away if only for a few hours. Of course the trip is going to cost me. Oil change and shopping and if I'm not terribly tired (but I will be) I might just stop at the casino and donate $20.

I deleted the Wordpress blog and that was very satisfying.  Maybe I'll take a little nap before I start a new blog.  If I can stop sneezing, that is. I don't know if it's the material I'm always playing with but man oh man, some mornings I can sneeze a dozen times. Kind of reminds me of my youngest. She's notorious for convulsive sneezing. And I mean convulsive.  Her outbursts have happened in quiet movie houses where she can't stop and people start snickering and laughing out loud. Me included.

Happy Birthday Jen!
