It\u2019s Easter. A good day for a new start!<\/p>\n
The last time I posted a journal entry was\u2026 well\u2026 quite a while ago! Too much time has transpired. Circumstances have changed. Events have happened. People have come and gone. Too much has gone unnoted.<\/p>\n
Easter\u2026 the day of resurrection\u2026 new life. What better day for revival and renewal?<\/p>\n
For some time I have been wanting to redesign my website. Of course, intentions and available time tend to avoid each other. I had the best ideas at the most inopportune moments and pitiful ambition when free hours surrounded me. Then today I installed Moveable Type. Now my web publishing life has become much simpler! Moveable Type\u2019s available templates and easy archiving system have taken much of the difficulty out of the whole process. There is much that I need to learn about Moveable Type. For now, at least the site has a new design and provides a place for me to finally write again.<\/p>\n
I need to write. I really need to write. The need has finally gotten to the point where it had to happen NOW! If you love to write you will relate to what I\u2019m saying. Writers HAVE to write. Whether we write poorly or brilliantly, we HAVE to do it. Surely we want to write something amazing each time we sit before our computers or take a pen in our hands. No one wants to write poorly. But to not write at all is worse than the worst of the worst writing.<\/p>\n
So\u2026 Today\u2026<\/p>\n
We spent the afternoon at my mom\u2019s house. (Yes, \u201cwe.\u201d The \u201cwe\u201d will be explained another day.) My sisters and my niece were there. It was an impromptu gathering. Mom had been sick this week. So, no one was sure if we would get together or not. My stepfather had to work. (Doesn\u2019t THAT suck?) We brought flowers over for Mom and ended up staying. Since none of us were prepared for this we ended up buying sandwiches, chips and chocolate at Quick Chek. Yes, we BOUGHT chocolate on Easter. Damn Easter Bunny! Poor Mom was sick and he didn\u2019t even have sympathy enough to leave chocolate! Anyway\u2026 We had fun watching my niece find Easter eggs. We talked and laughed a lot. That was good in light of recent circumstances (also to be explained another day).<\/p>\n
The only downside to the day was that I had been attempting a seven day detox diet. The first two days of the program allow you to have nothing but green tea and water. I started yesterday. I made it to 8 PM, then broke down and ordered Chinese food. Heh! Today I made it until 3 PM, then rushed to Quick Chek. Oh well. It\u2019s a holiday\u2026 bad time to start any kind of diet. I did lose five pounds between Saturday and Sunday though! Not too shabby!<\/p>\n
Tonight I came home and fiddled with the ol\u2019 website until\u2026 *POOF!* Here it is! All brandy new!<\/p>\n
There are plenty of things to write about, plenty to catch up on. But right now I\u2019m tired. Time for a shower\u2026 maybe a movie\u2026 and then bed.<\/p>\n
