Keeping it going...

I am really enjoying the blog here - so I will keep it up. Not sure I will keep up the daily thing but I will try. Again, I wrote in my dot journal. I got new stickers today so I used those. I found a bunch of cool sticker people on Etsy and bought them there. I got coffee stickers and succulents. I just ordered the succulents today and cannot wait until I get those. I am really into the stickers - I use them to decorate my entries - it is kind of like the graphics were that I used to post with on here. I still have all my graphics - just have to figure out my photobucket access. I forget that right now. Once I get that going, I might start using graphics again. Kind of let that lapse.

So today in US politics - Moscow Mitch is obstructing the further aid to the American people. He objected to Bernie Sanders motion in the Senate today in a total dick move. So now Bernie is threatening to filibuster and keep them there through the New Year holiday. Yes, Bernie! I looked up what a filibuster is because I was not totally clear on what it entailed and here is what Wiki had to say -

Filibuster is a tactic used in the United States Senate to prevent a measure from being brought to a vote by means of obstruction. The most common form occurs when one or more senators attempt to delay or block a vote on a bill by extending debate on the measure.

Anyhoo. I am all for Bernie doing this and let those guys work through the holiday. They can just do that. This is all over a $2K payment to people during a pandemic. Other countries are doing so much more and they won't even do this so yes, GO BERNIE! I guess they have a military bill (override of Presidential veto) they want to pass and he is going to obstruct that and see if he can force a vote on the $2k payment to the people.

I took another walk today and went out with my friend J**** to Alameda today. We just did a drive around. No stopping anywhere. It was nice to look at the ocean there and see the beach. We might go back tomorrow to walk along the beach and do that. Sounds like a nice idea to me. I am really liking walking right now. Feels good to move. I get depressed when I just sit around.

I did no writing on the story today so that was not good. I will try and work on it a bit tomorrow. Hopefully, I will.

Anyhoo - that is all I have. Hope all is well with you there. Stay safe and healthy.

DW Styles and Customization...

So I was playing with the layouts and trying to figure out headers. All of the canned layouts for free accounts do not allow headers or background images but I went to the DW styles comm which is here:

http://dw-styles.dreamwidth.org/profile

And found out that the core2 testing layout allows use of header images, background and other images with layouts. It is very bare bones so you have to do a lot of programming with that one. I am not using that right now, but once I design my banner, I will use that one to put it in here.

I thought that might help people as they design their spaces here. For me it is a matter of figuring out how to get the look that I want here.

So yays!

If you need to know other things, that DW styles comm is very helpful. Cheers!

Do we like it here? I think I do. I have gotten a very nice reply to a help ticket I put in. AND it was the right answer.
