I Used To Blog

Published by James at 2:55 pm under Blog Related, Stuff about Me

Those of you who don’t use the RSS feed have noticed I have a new theme. The only thing I miss about the last theme is the twitter updates at the top of the posts column instead of in the sidebar. Those of you who use the RSS feed should check out the new theme and tell me what you think–it has a customizable picture at the top, which I really like.

And this is the first post of July. Umm….yeah.

I’ve been busy, but not really too busy to blog. I’m going to try to do better, but I’m not making any promises. I will say that don’t count on any pictures other than the ones in the top of the blog—that takes too long to make a post and I’m giving up on it, at least for now.

I stopped working out for a while. I missed two straight months. But I’ve gotten 5 workouts in the last 8 days: four at the gym and one in a hotel room. I’m praying that is a new pattern, rather than a break of the badness back to the badness.

We had another trip. We visited my sister in Ohio for my niece’s graduation party. Then stopped briefly in Erie (thanks Adiel!) and on to visit my great aunt in Rochester, NY. She had some family tree news that we enjoyed and my kids got to meet her again (not since 2001 have they seen her). (Grandpa Lansberry’s father’s sister) We had a lunch and a chat and then headed on to New Hampshire, stopping for a late supper in Bennington, VT.

We stayed in a cabin at the newly purchased Woodbound Inn with my sister and her family. During the day I helped out at Cindy & Aylmer’s new place of residence which is still a few week’s from being ready to move into. The inn is beautiful and we’re hoping to get back sometime soon. It was nice to see it—and the high point of the trip, as usual, was dinner at Aylmer’s Grille. (soon to relocate to the inn).

Saturday after that we travelled to TC ’s grandma’s house and spent a few days there, including a long morning picking up old fence in the weeds. Then back to Sandy’s for a night and to a meeting near Cincinnati, OH, which included a day at the creation museum.

It was good to be home.

And then TC and I went last week for a couple of days to Atlanta and now I’m back in town for a whole week. Sometime I’ll post the year to date travel numbers. Still pretty light.

More to come sometime—including some writing projects in the work. For today, though, this is it.
