Happy Friday

“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

A brisk 31 degrees this morning in Colorado. I met Jeff for coffee and conversation. When I got home I found out I had an issue with my website. After a chat session with Bluehost all seems to be working again. I find myself feeling overwhelmed with technology even after years working in engineering. I know some of that is immediate panic and a voice that says “I’m screwed now.” I don’t consider myself a techy person but prefer sharing stories of our lives with a friend, reading a book, journaling or enjoying the few moments with this nice buck I saw on my bicycle ride this morning. Each of those is about what I am doing with the time that has been given me while living in these times. Happy Friday!!

Retired. Having fun with photography. Journal daily. Meditate daily. Learning haiku/poetry. Have a love for fountain pens.

      I’m at my coffee shop right now but when I get home, I will contact my hosting service and see what we can do. Like I said, I do not want have my millions of followers frustrated.

    I’m glad to see your site back in operation. Without Monte’s input, my days were out of balance. 😆
    One of Faye’s problems might have been her browser’s cache requiring time to update. It all looks good to me.

    Nice fat buck! That’s how I like to see them—in the wild, not on a wall.

      I’m not sure the issues with my site. I had trouble last night and now disabled the W3 Total Cache plugin which Bluehost told me was the issues. When go to W3 Total Cache website I see where there are issues goin on.

      This buck is standing over a gully just beyond him where a doe was grazing. Shortly after taking this image they both bounced off into the trees along Spring Creek. It was a perk to my morning bicycle ride!
