My Pals

 They're both females but who says a guy can't have girls for BFF's, even if he's an old married grump?

Starting Over

I screwed up. I wanted to discontinue the Google Adsense deal where Google was attaching ads to my blogs. In the course of 3 years on the program I generated about $5.88 revenue from "hits" on the ads attached to my blogs. Didn't seem to make sense to keep it going so I decided to cancel my subscription to the program today. Since I'm a technological whiz kid when it comes to computers I whipped right through all the steps required to cancel the program and simultaneously wiped out all my blog postings from the last three years. I feel like I just kicked my best friend off the life raft to make more room for me. My intentions were good but my methods sucked.

So, here I go again. Starting over. If any among my vast following audience decide to follow this blog again I hope you can find it. It's got the same title, JD's Blahs, but had to change the url a tad. I feel worse that I also wiped out my genealogy blog, "My Search Goes On" but maybe I can start that one up again as well.

No big loss anyway as my rate of posting has slowed considerably. I just wish I'd printed out more than I did (just a hand full) but that's the way it goes. It's not like I've got a legacy I need to preserve through my writing. I want to make one big improvement in my postings from now on...I'm going to try to do less complaining about things that bug me. No guarantees but that's my intent.
