Disappointment

Philosophical Meanderings, Too Posted on April 21, 2008 by JeanOctober 30, 2020

When is the time you most want your satellite radio to work? On a long drive is one time that comes to mind. Yesterday, mine let me down. I hadn’t used it for three weeks. I’d taken it off the dash and tucked it into my console. Prior to driving … Continue reading →

Breathing Out the Ghost

Philosophical Meanderings, Too Posted on April 13, 2008 by JeanOctober 30, 2020

I’ve just finished reading Breathing Out the Ghost by Kirk Curnutt*.  In his debut novel, Kirk has a strong voice, which also came through in his short story collection, Baby, Let’s Make A Baby: Plus Ten Other Stories.  You can find the first chapter to Breathing Out the Ghost here.  … Continue reading →

Prepping for Retirement

Philosophical Meanderings, Too Posted on April 6, 2008 by JeanFebruary 11, 2016

I have a little less than two months until I’m retired.  Between now and then, I’m getting a lot of things wrapped up.  I’m also planning what my retired schedule should be.  Obviously, it will be likely to undergo revisions as I get settled in. I have the following priorities: … Continue reading →

Wireless DSL at the Kitchen Table

Philosophical Meanderings, Too Posted on April 1, 2008 by JeanFebruary 11, 2016

Got the DSL connection working, and hubby and I are wirelessly accessing the Web on our laptops from the kitchen table.  Tres cool. And, Tech, I’m a little concerned about the tone of that last comment.  If I didn’t know better, I’d say that sounded like a threat….oh.  It was … Continue reading →

Unofficial Moving Thirteen

Philosophical Meanderings, Too Posted on March 27, 2008 by JeanFebruary 11, 2016

Tech says it’s time for a new post, and he’s right.  I don’t participate in the Thursday Thirteen, but here’s an Unofficial Moving Thirteen. Getting word back from the Transportation Management Office (TMO) about whether your preferred move dates are good or not is nerve-wracking.  Especially when you have to … Continue reading →

Word Press Text Widgets

Philosophical Meanderings, Too Posted on March 19, 2008 by JeanJuly 2, 2020

Zoe asked how to do widgets in WordPress.  It took me a little figuring to get it the first time, too, so here’s a brief tutorial. In the WordPress Admin window, select Presentation, Widgets. On the sidebar arrangement, look under Available Widgets.  You should see Text 1.  If you don’t … Continue reading →

LibraryThing Widget

Philosophical Meanderings, Too Posted on March 15, 2008 by JeanJuly 2, 2020

I finally got around to putting a widget for LibraryThing (random books from my library) in the sidebar. It’s way towards the bottom. I may play with its location, but for now, it’s hanging around below Search but above Trackbacks. I put the 200 book version at the bottom of … Continue reading →

Going to Be Scarce

Philosophical Meanderings, Too Posted on March 8, 2008 by JeanMarch 8, 2008

I’m not sure how much I’ll be saying here over the next couple of months.  I should be preparing to move — sorting stuff, deciding what I’m going to hand-carry in two trips, securing stuff that stays with the house — that kind of thing.  I’m procrastinating, but I’m pushing … Continue reading →

Virtual Trail Certificate

Philosophical Meanderings, Too Posted on March 6, 2008 by JeanApril 20, 2025

Back at the end of January, I mentioned several of us were starting a virtual walk of the West Coast Trail in British Columbia. We were pleasantly surprised to hear from Parks Canada’s Metropolitan Outreach Officer after we finished the trail. It turns out he’d found our discussion of the … Continue reading →

I’m Lost. Take Me Home.

Philosophical Meanderings, Too Posted on March 3, 2008 by JeanFebruary 11, 2016

About a week ago, a strange residential mini-dumpster showed up on my front curb (just like everyone else’s — Montgomery gives each household a mini-dumpster to roll out to the road up to twice a week for trash pick-up) .  It wasn’t mine.  Wasn’t my next door neighbor’s.  I saw … Continue reading →
