It's amazing


When I think of all of the bloggers blogging their hearts and souls out day after day I am amazed. We write to be read, but without any assurance that someone will read us.

I am amazed when I think of the number of emails flying this way and that all day long. My snail mail is now mostly solicitations, circulars and bills. We talk about leaving a trash can by the mail box so we don't have to bring it to the house.

I am amazed by the information I can find just by searching on the web. If we didn't have those search engines how would we find anything?

I am amazed that my granddaughter who lives in Finland can keep track of what's going on with the friends she left behind, and of the new friends she has made.

I am amazed that another granddaughter was able to visit Slovakia and send us pictures of her visit before she came home.

It's just an amazing web world we live in.

Evening thoughts

I have a mental block trying to create a new web page. I know how to do it, but every time I begin to code, I just fuzz out. It's a problem with words. Yes, stupid little words that line up in chains to make sentences. As a writer I know how to string them in long melodic ribbons. However, put some HTML code in front of me and I block.

It's not that I don't know HTML. Somewhere a friend has a sample table I made for her showing that you can code anything. If you can code a crazy table and use a cascading style sheet, you should be able to create a web site.

So, with the web site on my mind, I'm going to say "Good Evening" and take myself to bed. By morning I should have it all written and coded - it I can remember it at all.

Better luck to you.
