Lazy Day

I went to bed early, which is 11:30 for me, and woke up late at 9. I should have plenty of rest. Last night I was just worn out. When I looked in the mirror, I could see how tired I was. So rather than blog and stay up, I went to bed.

The boy was awake early. He's not a late sleeper. The daughter was still asleep. I fixed that for her. He's playing with his kid computer and she's watching TV. I'll be dropping them off later in the afternoon. I had thought about taking them early and going to work at the restaurant for a while, they're shorthanded. But, I know that between the store and the volunteering at the campaign, I won't get to spend much time with them in the coming weeks. I don't have set plans for today. I do need to swap out my spare tire and one of the front tires so that my truck can pass the state inspection. Maybe I'll take the kids with me to give the truck a more thorough cleaning at the car wash.

Right now, I am combing the blogs for posts about the county and about the local candidates for posting on RGV Life.

Blogger blocks excessive posting

A while ago, I tried uploading a blog post via Android App. The upload kept failing. Not to be deterred, I deleted the app and reinstalled, to find no better success. I thought that perhaps I could email the post to Blogger. That did not work either. The email bounced back with the following: Technical details of permanent failure: You have exceeded the the allowable number of posts without solving a captcha. This happened because I imported quite a few blog posts from another blog I discontinued just yesterday. It has been less than 24 hours since the import. It makes sense. I'm rather certain the captcha speedbump is also why the mobile app refused to publish my posts. The problem can be circumvented if you post directly on the Blogger site and solve the captcha. This problem will likely resolve in the next few hours and all will be right with the universe once more.

Before Getting Out of the Gate

Tonight, I was working on a new blog project. Google and Blogger have been good platforms for me in the past. I was able to get the domain pointed and was working on the layout and template. Suddenly, the website was blocked. I had searched for ways to publish that were not subject to censorhsip. I wound up on the Hive blockchain. It's great for censorship resistance, but it's not without its problems. In any case, I was thinking that maybe I was being too paranoid. Now, before getting out of the gate, I have a blog censored. I'm trying to think of what I could have posted, reposted, or even been associated with that could have caused the blog to be blocked. I can't think of anything. If this doesn't pan out after review, I may need to look for an alternative hosting option. I was already looking at Publii as an option. It only requieres simple FTP updates. I prefer not to use Wordpress as experience has taught me that you an customize a theme and add plugins ...
