Long Absence
When I started this Blog I knew it would take some effort to keep the content somewhat fresh. With current events being what they are, and my tendency to have a “comment” on most things, I did not feel that a lack of inspiration would be a problem.
What I did not count on being a problem was my own inability to simply post a quick note. No, I have to edit everything 20 times (syntax, logic, flow, spelling, etc, etc, etc) before I’m OK with changing the status from Draft to Publish. I found that a 4 or 5 paragraph post was taking me the better part of 2 hours!
So, the lack of that extra 2 hours is my excuse for the long absence of new posts over the last month. I will attempt work out a compromise, likely shorter posts with more small grammar and spelling errors, to get my post frequency back up. For there is certainly no lack of things to comment on!

I agree about the extra time it takes to do something right.
I’ve wondered myself what I can use to keep daily notes and tidbits of info. It is important to not only keep such things but to actually be able to find them later on and act on them in a reasonable amount of allotted time.
I’m curious if you will get notivication of this posted comment or if it will just sit here at the bottom of your page just to die of lonliness.
