Mostly Gone, Which Is the Same as Somewhat Here

December 6, 2009 by Life in the Highlands

Does it look like a ghost town around here? Did the sheriff vacate the premises and allow the outlaws/spammers to take over?

I think I just saw a tumbleweed blow by.

So, I haven’t written a post for about a month. In my defense, your honor, I have been doing lots of behind the blog stuff.

For instance,

  • I changed my blog’s background. Now it takes hours for the page to load. (But it looks pretty.) Has it finished loading, yet? I am so sorry. (Did I mention that it looks pretty?)
  • I updated the About page. Read it, if you dare. One might say it’s slightly not boring, and goes well with cheese.
  • I turned on the snow. The other reason you are still waiting for the page to load. (But it looks pretty.) And I feel like a superhero because I can CONTROL THE WEATHER. (Update: The snow has been turned off now. Sad.)
  • I joined the Facebook group “I was going to write a post, but ended up rearranging my sidebar.” Okay. Not a real FB group. But it should be. Because I do this ALL the time.

I also have been doing lots of unrelated to blogging stuff like,

  • not decorating the Christmas tree.

My daughter and her friends assembled the tree, put the lights on the tree, and decorated it–without my help!!! Yay! I might start enjoying Christmas again.

  • burning down the house.

Actually, it was just another science fair project. My daughter was setting fire to nuts to boil water. The house was never in any danger, but I sure hope the nuts had a good life insurance policy.

  • sewing up a storm. Because, did I mention, I can CONTROL THE WEATHER. By sewing. But I’ll tell you all about it in another post.

Which will hopefully be sooner than a month from now.

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to rustle up some spammers and chase them out of town.

    Wonderful!

    It took all of 1.5 seconds for your page to load and I love the snowflakes!

    I am so relieved you did not burn the house down and the nuts got their just desserts.

    It did not take long for the background to load at all. I really enjoyed your About life in the highlands page, it was quite entertaining to read just like all your other posts you do. Good Job and keep up the good work. :)
