Blogger
Tammykat has designed my graphics blog and I love what she does. She uses Artisteer, which sadly is no longer available. Is there a way to get a template coder that does exactly what is provided.. wysiwyg wise? Used to the old Netscape editor, I'm dating myself now.
All I'm looking for is a way to update the graphics, colors, font, etc. Am aware blogger has its own and it's simple enough.. however, every time I have tried to make a banner in the past, it never aligns properly to the center. Css coding is someplace too as I have tried that too. Can't peek at the html either as the graphics are in a separate spot and my tablet doesn't have a control plus u. That needs laptop.
In other news, tomorrow is Dr's appointment. Hopefully nothing major, routine blood work to see if my thyroid is still working. And my ears, my balance is off again with the bppv. Found a way to do it myself but it requires a recliner not a bed. All the tutorials on them show a person going from one side to another and then the crystals are supposed to go back. Uhmm, not for me. I have an arthritic neck which makes it more painful and want to puke. The recliner helped tremendously when I was ill; couple of days and a week with tandem homeopathy of my pulsatilla ( sinuses).
Later gator.

I dont understand
Why he doesn't want me to cook his meals anymore and then he proceeds to berate me because I ate well and he didn't.. mean. Boy did I cry! I was doing so good too.
I told him I was tired too. Yeah I'm emotional.
Just buy a microwave for crying out loud, he says he can't afford it.
91 year old still pushes my buttons. Swear word alert, asshole.

Is it..
Odd that random stuff pops up in my brain that are after the fact, "hey!, where did that come from".?
What's the difference between taking things personally versus reacting emotionally?
I've been working on myself, the marriage of meditation and mediation..
The wait of weight;
That type of thing...

Be Still
Be still
Posted by MoonGyrl on September 9, 2013
Be still my beating heart,
at long last I sing to thee…
A sting that left me apart
to and fro, alas a lark…
Has entered the horizon,
a glaze for ablaze…
The moon has no fear;
it is always near.
The sun is my son
but the soul is sole.
Water is therapy…
heating on the skin of antiquity.

Reevaluation
Ok. I got very sick more than 3 weeks ago that led me to reevaluate certain areas of my health and life instances.
Never thought I'd vomit 🤢 though! Wasn't just that, my bppv came back at the same time along with enhanced anxiety. Everything seems to happen in three's, looking back to the love and heartwarming support of my dad and brother; life sure teaches much when you think you know it all. It's the appreciation of positive energies that engulfed my spirits and my disability.
Slow down, slow slow and slower. Recognized the problem of internal conflict as a meditative tandem device.
Rest, even if you don't sleep... rest. Rest your mind, rest your arms, rest the shoulders, rest and slow down.
To be continued as my too much genealogy has given me an headache. Need cartoons soon as laying down helps. The rain helped me sleep too, oh so nice hearing the big drops pour, releasing tension.

Movie theater smells
https://www.airscent.com/ambient-scenting-theaters/
I knew it! Went to see Meg 2 on Tuesday and it was entertaining. However, it was slow beginning and as the action progressed, so did an air freshener. Why did they do it? Gross. Have to wash my hair tomorrow to get that chemical smell out. Still reeks.
The popcorn was freshly made, butter please.. delicious but my eyes were bigger than my stomach, should have got a medium. Lunch was my favorite, spicy cheese sauce with those fantastic pretzel bites. Tried that starry soda. Meh. Told the cashier to check the fountain bag as it tasted like it was at the end. Fountain soda is completely different than a can, it's more concentrated. They're also a pain to fill. That was one I didn't like when I worked as a cashier a very long time ago.

Biggest ever
This site has been around a very long time. They used to offer checks and mailed them to winners. Every now and then, I play. This morning was the biggest reward getting 3 double golds. Should have made a screencap but didn't.

Stagnant
My energies are stagnant; must be a retrograde somewhere? I am very sorry that money was wasted on that template toaster software!, they didn't respond to facebook instant messages. Wish I could get that money back!!! ohhh what is wrong with me. sighs. That's money not coming back. I found it rather odd designing with it; lack of video tutorials for one. Documentation was okay. My ego jumped then fell like humpty dumpty. Lesson learned?... stop repeating the same mistakes.
At least with the blogger guide am able to get something going. Really didn't want anything splashy for a creative writing blog to begin with. Its on the raw side now, like the episode of Spongebob where he became abrasive.
My heart is still heavy with emotional trauma from the two prior days. Reality bites back? or am I living in a dream world again, where visions of dancing with actor Andy Garcia abound? sighs
bye for now
p.s.- need to bring out that creative writing journal I bought a couple years ago from Five Below. Never used it and am thinking it may be an outlet for blogging as well. Time to put my thinking cap on.

Test driving
ohhh okay. lol. splurged on template toaster to see what can be created for a blogger template... well, I need to play more with this software!!!! It takes the place of artisteer. Sale price was 50 bucks off, so it was 99 dollars. This just may be worth the price and really try to learn something!!

Experiment in reverse psychology
You cannot tell me that reverse psychology doesn't exist. I tried doing the same thing my 91 year old dad does, Lmao. Oh holy cow, can we say hypocrite really LOUD!
Let me get this straight... you can close my door when you get cold and force me to turn my heat up... which is fine..
I can close my door when I am cold and turn the heat up. You open the door and tell me not to because you're cold and you need the heat...
There's no logic in this, is there? You can’t have it both ways...
