For some strange reason I can’t get Windows Live Writer to
communicate with Blogger. It thinks my
password is wrong. At first I thought it
was a work network thing, but I have tried from home as well and encounter the
same results. I like Live Writer because
of its functionality. I have done some
searching and can’t find any reason as to why it’s blocked and/or not
working. For all I know there is a feud
between Microsoft and Google, it’s just strange that it’s worked for years and
as of yesterday it just ceased to work.
So now I either have to post live through Bloggers interface
or type out in a blank word document and do a cut and paste. I don’t have time for fancy formatting or to
make font/color changes – all of that is done ahead of time on the fly in Live
Writer. All I can hope is that it’s
fixed sometime soon and then life in the blogisphere can go back to normal.
The mailbox was full last night. Bills, new debit card and notices about the
work 401k. I couldn’t get through all of
it fast enough and get away from the computer at home for Momma. She was anxious to get me upstairs. She wanted more food like everyone else. I took my sweet time. They got their treat and I got mine (slice of
pie). Then it was time to pack my lunch
and head to bed. I had to carry Bear to
the bedroom again. He wanted to sleep
with me but didn’t want to exert himself.
I have a feeling since I’ve done this twice that it will start to become
an every night thing. I really don’t
want to lift and carry him, he’s not exactly portable.
I ate one of those Cinnamon/Carmel Rolls with my Oatmeal
this morning. It was good but I am
paying for it now. I am slow and
sluggish – just want to go back to bed.
Ah sugar just like with everything there is a price to pay. Sluggishness is only one of them.
It was a nice treat when I got home last night to see that
Lawn Boy was a day early. With the little rain we had yesterday, the lawn looks
nice. I set out the trash last night and
that was it. I’ve got him marked down so
that come Friday I can send him money. I
could do it now but why rush. Speaking
of nice treats, I saw a nice shirtless guy last night running. Man alive he looked awesome!
I am building a laptop at work for a guy that I have a crush
on. A while back I read that passwords
typically contain something personal. Like
the name of your wife, daughter, favorite movie, something that is totally
guessable. This guy used his initials
but mixed them up and then tacked on some other characters that don’t mean
anything to me. It was kind of awkward
to ask him for his password, I just feel like a school girl when I have to talk
with him. He’s married and a co-worker
so there are two strikes against him. I
think it would be neat to get to know him more on a personal level but since
there is no chance of a future, that won’t happen. He’s all business and seems focused on his
job. He is buried in work most of the
time so there is little time for him to do anything else. The laptop will allow him to work from home,
plus he travels a fair amount.
Today is a busy day for meetings but the phones are really
slow, kind of expected since we had the holiday in there. Some people take vacation and plus there
haven’t been any changes in our environment.
Now this weekend there will be changes and who know’s what that will
break. Next week should be a little more
normal. I have a staff meeting to attend
while I eat my lunch. I hate those
things because we never start on time, there is always someone late. We easily get off topic and people go on and
on about things that could be summed up in a few words. Why our boss allows this is beyond me, but I
get paid to attend in that I don’t have to take my time for lunch – so it’s a
working lunch. I hope there are no big
changes in store for today’s meeting, really don’t want any stress right
now. Plus the signup sheet for the
massage lady should be coming out today.
If I can get there in time I will sign up for an hour, love that length
of time.
Thinking about eye glasses I checked out Warby Parker, they
have a couple frames I like. I was thinking
if you mail order from them and need an adjustment, who’s going to do
that? Outside of that I think it’s a
great idea and they provide a cost effective way of getting eyewear. I am going to stick with my eye doctor
because my insurance affords me discounts that is presuming he says time to
change. Hopefully, I can limp along with
what I have. I mean I am happy but I don’t
enjoy wearing glasses despite the fact that I wanted them. I thought they would make me look cool or
sophisticated, I really don’t enjoy wearing them. There is no substitute for 20/20 the real
thing like nature intended. It’s typical
that once you turn 40 your eyes go downhill.
I enjoyed 39 years w/o glasses but that time is up now.
Oh I had my BBQ last night and it was every bit as good as I
remembered. The big decision tonight is
continue and have the left overs or switch for Mexican Food. Friday unless something changes should be
Lasagna & Cheese Garlic Bread. I
will be stuffed from that meal for sure.
I might not have a man but I think I am doing a decent job of taking
care of myself and the children. It’s
not fun but I try to at least make some of it enjoyable.
