A Few Changes

In an effort to streamline the loading of my blog, and collect a few things into one place, I made some little changes this morning.

I moved the reading list from my sidebar to it's own page, linked still in the left sidebar.  There you will find not only the most current list, but also the other reading lists I've collected here, dating back to 2007.

I also added a page where each month I'll link to a post with the top ten most read posts from the previous month.

Quick Question

Has the pretty floral header image on my blog disappeared on your computers?  It's disappeared on mine and been replaced with an obnoxious message, and I'm wondering if that's just mine, or all computers?

And, if you see the obnoxious message, is anyone out there savvy enough to fix the problem and get my header image back???

Finally Switched Successfully

I have finally accomplished a successful switch from Old blogger to New Blogger. With no thanks from blogger support, I might add. I emailed them several times, and got nothing but a form letter response, telling me they were busy, providing help links, and a note that said you should reply to their form email if the help links didn't solve your problem. They don't answer you when you reply to their email either. I finally had to give up on my original google account and make a new one, which ultimately allowed me to finally switch.

So, I'll be back either later tonight, or tomorrow sometime with new blogging

Still Not Working Properly... But I'm Thinking!

I have had a really hard time writing anything of substance for quite a while now. I manage the occasional blog post, and once in a while I type a journal entry, or hand write some thoughts in a journal. But mostly, I've felt unable to write anything worth considering for more than about three seconds.



There are two possible reasons I see for this.



The first is that I have been wanting for quite some time now to be out of Calgary, and am waiting for the pieces to fall into place for that to be possible. I find Calgary hard to breathe in these days, and for me, the ability to draw deep, spiritual breaths is closely tied to the creative processes necessary to write.



The second thing niggles every once in a while at the back of my mind. "What if I can't write anymore because I was healed from depression? What if everything interesting that I had to say was a result of the depression?"



These are the things I'm thinking about.



I'm off to finish planning the girls Bible study for tomorrow afternoon - that and take a hot bath with a good novel.



If blogger ever gets fixed, and solves my problem, I'll get back to posting regularly!
