Diaries

I was up and out the door to the gym by 7:20 after feeding Colin and letting him out. From the gym I went to my 8:30 appointment at the doctor’s office for blood work then back home to eat breakfast and shower. Colin had another time out then I headed back into town for my yearly checkup appointment at 10:15. From there I had to make stops at the library, hardware store, bank, and grocery store.

It’s another warm day with partly cloudy skies, and a bit of a breeze. Even with 12 inches of rain the two previous weeks between the sun and wind things are getting dry again. Starting tomorrow there is the usual afternoon/evening thunderstorm chances that could be hit or miss.

We went from winter to summer and now we have spring in June. Cool and breezy with lot so of sunshine and low humidity. The farmers need this dry spell to get the spring hay fields cut.

Even though we had all that rain the flowers in the pots and the ground need water after a couple of days of hot sunshine. I watered everything good this morning before heading into town for a golf tournament meeting.

Another beautiful day. Sunny skies, very breezy, low humidity with temperatures in the low mid to upper 70’s.

Gym this morning than back home for a couple of hours before heading back to the gym for an 11 – 4 shift. And a very busy shift it was. With school out here, it was busy all day with kids coming in to free swim plus swim lessons, and folks signing up to come to the gym for the summer.

In the last two weeks I have recorded about 12 inches of rain as of last night. The forecast has 40% chance tonight and down to 20% tomorrow. We really need sunshine and dry weather for about a week. James usually mows on Thursdays. I know is behind with all the wet weather. If he does not show up this evening he will most likely be here sometime tomorrow.

I worked a shift at the Wellness Center today from 9:30 to 4pm. Colin has had three days in a row of home alone and spent all day Monday back here on the computer. I need to give him some extra attention tonight to make up for it.

Thunderbird and Webmail is still not working on my PC. Dreamhost website has not updated all is fixed yet for today. When my Thunderbird and webmail were working on my PC, my Fire mail was not working. I had not changed anything on it after we fixed it here. Now, my Fire mail is working. Same for Bob’s e-mail His desktop system is not working but I can get his mail on his Fire.

Nick, I will leave it for another day before I request help from Dreamhost since they have not posted an all clear.

And the saga continues. I should add the soggy continues as we’ve had more rain today which do not need.

I posted yesterday Rick and I aborted the project of moving all my stuff to his hosting service. He posted on Bob’s journal page Tuesday, I think, about the issues. I was still not able to get mail on Thunderbird yesterday but could see it on web mail. Rick had to put in a call to Dreamhost for me to get a callback because I could not get it work on Bob’s computer in Dreamhost. By 6:30 the tech guy had my mail pointing to a different address and all was well.

This morning same issue but I could not see mail on my web client either. I sent an e-mail back to the tech guy at the help desk this morning letting him know things had gone south again and ask to have a call back. Just after I sent e-mail from Bob’s account, it too went south with the same error. Now I had no e-mail at all. Heard nothing from Dreamhost by the time I needed to leave for my shift at the Wellness Center from 11 to 4. I even tried putting a ticket request from their website from the gym and it would not go through.

Rick is on the road. So, I posted an SOS on Bob’s journal page asking if someone would be able to put in a tech call back appointment for me for 4:30 this afternoon.  Nick posted a message Dreamhost was having issues on the servers I was mapped to so it may not be me. Mail is still down so I am hoping it is still me.

Nick, if I see Dreamhost has fixed the problem on their site and I still have mail issues, I may need you to put in a ticket for me. I hate Dreamhost in that you can’t call them but have to use that on-line ticket stuff and I, so far, have not been able to get it to work here or at the gym.

After three days of this my stress level has about maxed out.
