Good God! & I’m Sorry & I’m really, really tired.
I have been trying for two days now to post a simple silly sound file that I thing most of you will get a kick out of. Frankly…. I need a more user friendly host. This GoDaddy thing just doesn’t cut it. Not only is the blog interface full of holes, there’s no functional online editor, and frankly, I’m not exactly stupid, why won’t sound files installed here, or even those housed & linked to another host post here?
Crock a **** that’s wheat.
I’m not totally silent or hiding folks. I discovered that my old blogspot blog deleted everything I had in archives recently, so I’ve been hunting down & restoring everything I can. I’m slowly getting there, but as some of you know I lost much transitioning from MS to the world’s buggiest MAC & can’t resurrect anything created on my MAC (more than a year’s work)
It’s way past time to assemble everything and secure it… can you believe that’s more than 2000 limericks & poems, 210 short stories, 8 multichapter stories and almost 400 drawings? I’m almost paealyzed by the chore…
The drawings, though slow going will be easiest since I have all but a handful of the originals. It’s my writing that’s going to be hardest to properly restore. I backed up my blog but never noticed that the saved format will take months of effort concentrated on only deciphering it before I glean any of it. Yes I have originals.. It’s getting them up again that feels almost overwhelming. - could there be a dominant svengali out there who’d consider redirectig my mortal purpose to restoring what’s gotten obscurred and then maybe supporting me to make more? LOLOLOLOLOLOL
Lots of people wanted me gone. There are hardly even any more cache pages left even. Eeeep! Wil I live long enough to top em?
LOLOLOL.

Hi Patty -
Wondered where you’ve been! I actually got up the nerve to post a personal on here and have no idea how it works — is it visible to others?
You sound good — you know, I worry…

Patty, good to hear from you.
Thing will look better when you are rested.
Hopefully you will recover everything.
Love and warm hugs,
Paul.

Hav aen’t posted in forever. I just had to say your stories from the past are my favorite. They touch home in so many ways. Wish I could tell you more but not in this forum. You have changed and have helped me in many ways. I am sure you want to move forward rather than write about past stuff—I want you to be healthy and happy and not stay in the past—but your stories are so well written–what a talent you have that makes the person feel as if they are there. Just wanted to give you encouragement–sorry things didn’t work out with you and John—keep striving to work on self and all that positiveness will permeate through you.

Hi Patty,
It takes time to complete projects, especially when they seem so overwhelming. Whether it is work or recovering what has been lost in here, I have never known you to just throw up your hands and say, “I can’t do it”.
I am confident you will get it all put back together, perhaps you will find you like the finished product even more.
Walk in Peace,
R
