The Journal, Monday, 6/26

Hey Folks, Wow. I could post this right now and chances are you’d find value in it. Just check out today’s “Of Interest” to see what I mean. There’s a lot there. *** By the way, I requested and received a “free website critique” of my main website from Nate Hoffelder. In a word, the guy’s legit. He’s also super helpful. My website doesn’t suck, but (to continue the analogy) he pointed out a few places where vacuum leaks exist or are forming. So I’ll take care of those over the next week or so. So once again I encourage … Read more

The Journal, Sunday, 6/25

Hey Folks, Well, the best laid plans, etc. An unexpected trip popped up for tomorrow morning. We’ll leave here around 6 for a 10-hour turnaround to Flagstaff to pick up Bryan. Job Corps finally decided they have a slot for him. They called a few days ago (did I tell you that?) while I was in New Mexico. Originally, Mona was going to drive to Casa Grande (about 3 hours) to meet Roy and drive Bryan back here. But due to circumstances, Roy can’t do that now, so we’ll drive to Flagstaff to get him. Then on Tuesday, I’ll drive … Read more

Hey Folks, Not a lot to report today. It’s Saturday and I’m still clearing decks to prep for the upcoming challenge. This morning so far I made more tweaks on the main website. Then I moved over and made a few tweaks on the Writing in Public website. After that, I worked on this website, The Daily Journal, to include creating a new header. I also narrowed it a bit and revised some of the colors. Finally I made some major revisions on the MailChimp side of things. Now I’ve been to the store (with Mona) and am about to … Read more

The Journal, Friday, 6/23

Hey Folks, Well, here we are back at HEStanbrough.com. Yep, I’ve moved the Journal back over here. Much more on that in the topic below. *** Thirty-three years ago today Mona found out I’m a much better judge of women than she is of men. That’s when we tied the knot, and she hasn’t figured out how to untie it yet. (grin) *** The first gem I took from Dean’s current post (see “Of Interest”) when I started reading was this: “Challenges get me focused for short bursts of time on writing.” There you go. That’s the reason to establish … Read more
