Life seems more like a roller coaster lately, though I want to get off. The last couple of weeks, I’ve been struggling with grief again. I know this is a long process, and some days are almost normal. Then I hear a song on the radio or see something that makes me think of my […]

I’ve suddenly started getting marketing texts and emails asking if I’m interested in web design services. First, I am a designer and developer. Maybe my site isn’t the best design, but it’s my playbox and I am working on another design already since I wasn’t entirely happy with this one Second, do not text someone […]

https://catvalente.substack.com/p/stop-talking-to-each-other-and-start?s=09 I was looking through Twitter this morning and found a link to this post/Substack. She’s put into words some of what has been going through my mind with the slow implosion of Twitter.

I finally updated the site, but I have a couple of things I need to change. I’m not sure how I feel about it yet, so I’ll give it a couple of days. If it doesn’t grow on me, I’ll update it again. School started back today. Both of my kids are happy to be […]

I was scrolling through Twitter earlier today, I don’t even remember why now.

I did start on the redesign of my site on 7/5 (the date of the last post), but I had to start preparing for a trip. My oldest got married on the 16th, in Saltillo, Mexico. The younger kids and I went to Mexico for 6 days to be at the wedding and do a […]

I started going through my pages – like my about me page. I had written it so far back that much of the information was out of date. I have updated it. I updated the Apoc page with the information on Apoc 6. I’m not sure if Apoc 6 is an official version or not. […]
