Well yesterday was a bit of a write off. Probably the most profound thought I had was “I’m going back to bed.” I had that thought a number of times, and spent a good bit of the day sleeping.
I do feel I have passed hump day though I reckon I look worse than I did, even though I feel better than I was. Thank you for your good wishes. One thing about going to bed early is I woke up early. Though I did go back to bed for a while. I was incredibly interested to hear a term this morning called “chronological snobbery.” Why it interested me is that although it is put way better than I ever could. it reflects how I feel the world looks at the past at the moment. It was a term coined by C.S.Lewis and another and first used in one of Lewis’ books. Wikipedia says it means “Chronological snobbery is an argument that the thinking, art, or science of an earlier time is inherently inferior to that of the present, simply by virtue of its temporal priority or the belief that since civilization has advanced in certain areas, people of earlier periods were less intelligent. The inference seems to be we know better. I am a great believer in the results of something determining its rightness for us. I ask myself, “are we better off as a result of what is embraced?” Something else I heard today from someone else that I really liked was “sometimes saying no is not a mark that I do not love you, but a mark that I do love you. Anyway the day has dawned. Merril was going to attend the dawn service but it rained and rained. I emptied 125 mm from the rain gauge. I think today will be a mostly indoors day today.

I saw something yesterday I had not seen in a number of days. My web site. Every time I would try to go there it said it was under maintenance and I could not get to it.
There has been change in the wind and the hosting site of “JustHost” has been bought out by “BlueHost.” For a while nothing changed and then it did. In times past one chat session saw problems fixed. I actually did like that about Just Host. They were easy to contact and fixed problems quickly. I was beginning to think this take over was not such a good thing. I was on my third chat time to gain access to my own site. What made matters worse is I kept on losing the chat site so I was hearing sounds but could not access where they were coming from. I do not deny that the person in chat was trying to help. The first time I lost the chat totally so although he was on the way I was left high and dry. The second time the person said it was in transition and would happen. My feedback was the proof would be if it did happen. The third time I had gotten an email that said I needed to ensure my info. was up to date. So I checked it was but could still not access my site. Hence the third chat. This time it was made known to me the new way of getting to the site. In the process I lost chat twice but stumbled upon how to get it back. I was told what to do now and did it and it worked. I have tried it again from scratch today and was able to access what I needed. It has been a drama I could have done without but it appears all is good again. I put this post daily in my “musings” area (blog) on my web site and have a number I need to add as I can now access the site again. I will never deny problems make me stronger but I will also never deny I don’t enjoy problems. I saw something yesterday I had not seen in a number of days. My web site.
