March 2024
Over the years, we've always compared our family life to a wagon train heading west. Just as everyone had to do his part to get to Oregon years ago, so everyone in our family must do his/her part to make our journey through life successful. If somebody climbs in the wagon and lets the others do the work, we just don't make any progress. We all have to pull our weight and work together. Along the trail we find lots of pebbles that make for a smooth ride and some bigger rocks that jar us a little; we hit the occasional pothole that can slow us down. But if we purpose to search diligently, there are countless gold nuggets and precious gemstones along the way as well. This journal is an attempt to preserve some of those precious moments for our children, and our children's children, as together we travel this trail called life.

Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore. Psalm 16:11

12-19-15 Issues

After the umpteenth time of trying to publish a blog post using Live Writer, I'm giving up for now. Blogging has had issues lately. Back on December 11 or so, Windows Live Writer was disabled and a new program, Open Live Writer (tech-y differences that I really don't care about) was available. After a few days of trying to install it (tech-y difficulties on their end - whoever "they" are), I finally got it installed, yeah! I quick published a "test" post, and sure enough it posted. As it was just a test, I deleted it and did the full post yesterday, fully intending to post it of course, under the (false) assumption that everything is fine. Not so. Now I get the error message "403 forbidden." Googling that message taught me that it's a Google issue which I have very little hope of correcting myself; but other bloggers who are a lot more blog-dependent than me are hollering also, and so we wait until Google gets things figured out. Whatever that means. Meanwhile, I'm back to blogging the old way - within Blogger itself. Which is not conducive to posting pictures at all. So I wait. If Google doesn't get it figured out soon, I might try my hand at pictures through Blogger. Or I might not. Anyway, we are alive and well and loving life and thankful for health and peace and most of all for Jesus!

Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.
Psalm 75:1

  1. Thanks for the tip. I figured it would run its course and get resolved by next week... Guess not this time!
