At Home — Finally

The day after thanksgiving is coming to an end. Star Trek II ‘The Wrath of Kahn’ is on TV and just finishing. The hot tub is warm and my next destination. It’s been an interesting day.

We made a great breakfast since both Daryl and Jared are here to enjoy it. We then went to the movies to see ‘The Emperor Club’. That was a very good movie about a dedicated teacher. We followed that up with a trip to a new Super Target store near the theater. It was crowded and people seemed to be buying lots of stuff. I’m not yet ready to start buying. Nina and I have agreed to hold to a limit of $50 on each other. Shouldn’t be hard to do that this year for sure.

After we got home and let Bradica out, we left again and had dinner out at new Japanese restaurant not far from the house. The food was very good. This is the third time I’ve eaten there, but the first time in the evening. It’ll definitely make our list of the best restaurants around.

The end result is that I’ve eaten far too much food in the past couple of days. I’ll never get rid of this weight at this rate! Time to start really counting calories.

Day After Thanksgiving

I think I’ve gotten the date fixed for these posts. Only problem is, the computer keeps reporting that the time is Eastern Standard Time. Does the computer know the difference? I’m going to have to ask the question about how to get the time zone reset. My other Linux computer is reporting the correct time zone. This is pretty strange.

I think I need to create another category — one for regular journal posts and another for technical posts about this journaling system.

I’ve also got other electronic journal entries that I need to put into this system as well. Finally, I need to get the e-mail process working. This system doesn’t come with a method for e-mailing in entries, but I have one pretty well written so I can modify that to put posts into this same database from e-mails.

New Web Log

This is the first post to the new web journal. I’m still getting this software to work correctly. I think enough is working to start putting posts out on the web page for all the world to see.

Today is Thanksgiving. It’s been a good day. Our two youngest sons Daryl and Jared arrived last night and will stay through tomorrow. Daryl being here was a surprise that the boys did a good job of keeping. Fortunately there is more than enough food!! It’s now close to 11 p.m. and time to head for bed!! I’m noticing that the server time isn’t set correct, either. So I’ve got to get that fixed — maybe tomorrow. I think the server thinks it’s set up for EST and I’m in MST.
