writing to survive
unknotting the past and remaking the present one story at a time

Mixed up muddled up shook up world

Let's start with the good news, the happy dancing news: Thanks in part to Anna, my new Russian friend at JS-Kit, I now have all of my JS-Kit comments back and have the ability to restore my Haloscan comments. Most people like the new look of my web page. The sun has been out and the days have been clean, clear and calm. My husband has been off all week (on furlough, but that's ok). The kid has been relatively healthy and happy. And we're going to visit family next week.

Now for the grouse-inpiring news: I have to match up each set of Haloscan comments with the proper post, which will mean that I have to go through almost two years worth of saved comments one by one. JS-Echo is still problematic--some people can't comment, there is no easy way for commenters to provide a link back to their web page, and most of my posts still have a double comment link at the bottom. The house needs to be cleaned for the house/pet-sitter. I still need to get a few Christmas presents for my father and stepmother (don't ask). I have been so wrapped up in the commenting problem that I haven't been stopping by many blogs. And even worse, I've barely had time to write or think, since the little brainspace I have has been devoted to blog trouble-shooting.

I hope to get another post out before we leave on Monday, something that will have nothing to do with colors or comments or cats (though I will return to cats). In the meantime, here's a little Kinks for you, the song that I stole a line from to title this post.
