Went to see my physician today to get another referral and so it’s back to physio next week.
Have read 4 chapters so far and completed review questions for 3 of them. Not very impressive, I guess, but it’s what I can do right now.
My health is not in the gutter, or the sewer, but it is in the toilet.
Very, very, very discouraging as my goals have pretty much fizzled out for the time being.
...was might nice with fresh mushrooms and grated carrot.
But often I cheat with soup and use canned, frozen, and dried stuff: this soup had canned bamboo shoots and I used a powdered mix for seasoning.
1. Just completed a checklist (Ta-da Lists with Prism) for reading the chapters and completing the review questions.
2. Family “Wall of Fame” is to motivate my daughter to get good grades in 1st grade, but wife agreed to let me use it too with this goal so she knows Daddy is committed too.
1. My daughter started 1st grade today
1a. Because she was at school, my wife and I were able to catch up on a little housework
2. Delicious hot and sour soup with fresh mushrooms
3. Back pain relief from an icy cold pool this evening
3a. My son had a great time during said trip to the pool
4. Using the new treadmill again at the exercise room in our apt. complex
5. Our family “Wall of Fame”, done up to motivate my daughter to get good grades, has also inspired me to complete my A+ Certification goal as far as studying the book. Cimmy agreed to help me and put my achievements up to also motivate our daughter.
I have yet to put anything on a blank webpage. Right now, I am posting exercises to a blog at my main site, which is boring as hell.
I know a lot of Linux webauthors like gedit, but I think I’ll take a look at Screem and open a free webpage somewhere to start playing with that.
...which was a shock, because I could never get an Ubuntu LiveCD working at all.
I decided to look at the KDE interface with openSUSE instead of GNOME, which I use with Ubuntu. Interesting. I could not get sound to work whatsoever, however. That’s not a good thing. Granted, I will need to install it to play a little more with it, but… so far, not a good sign.
Can’t seem to get the .iso burned, however. If possible, I’d really like to use a LiveCD first before totally wiping everything again. Or to get another hard drive.
I don’t think things have been going well.
Nothing online helps very much; many Spanish-speakers are incredibly lackadaisical about punctuation and many are using chatspeak abbreviations. Many do not understand when I say “that makes it difficult for me to understand” or are reluctant and resistant to change to help me in that regard.
I do not see our neighbors often enough to really practice, either.
A persistent back injury is making it very difficult for me to reach this goal, and things have ground to a near halt.
No consultation this time; it’s straight to the procedure, Aug 29th at 10:30 A.M. PST
Pain has sapped any motivation to exercise much.
Because Ubuntu is a Debian build, if at first things don’t succeed, I reference it as far as Debian.
I have mentioned elsewhere how these sites provide “third-party” functionality to 43 Things until checklists, sub-goals, etc. are implemented.
It is good to see that others are thinking outside of the box, so to speak.
These sites have become very useful to me when I made them desktop web applications with Prism.
