7 days and counting – once more into the breech

Seven more days.

There has not been a peep, no new posts from pending authors. Nothing approved or added to the site other than a few Adsense focused posts.

The site is way down, literally down to less than 24 new posts a day. Yesterday my noon post was visible this morning when I logged in in 4 years on this site that has never happened before. That made me sad.

I have published a lot of posts here on this site. So part of me is a little sad right now. I know that there are other sites out and around now. I have tried a few, and some stuck. I really, as I’ve said before, like to do my in-depth philosophical posts on Hubpages. It is a longer format and lets me explore the entire thought. But there is a piece of me because I have adapted to this site, making me sad now. Over the last four years, I have changed my wander project. The evolution is making it fit this site and the limits. I have moved my technical posts to fewer reviews and more essay driven technology discussions. I have met people that I will treasure as friends. Carol, Albert, LaJenna, Introvert, Hannifar, Kim J, Ghostwriter  Alex L, John L, Lado, Vidocka, etc. People that I would go so far as to call friends. I made fast friends on Niume; people like Angie, the Pixie, and Carol T. All of these people have enriched my life (and there are many more I have not thought of or mentioned by name.

You’ve wandered with me, we’ve discussed the impact of technology, parenting, children, and travel. We have wandered the Philippines of life.

A good friend of mine always used to say the best part of acting (he was prominent in community theater) is walking back out on stage and taking a bow. But the best thing of all he said was that feeling of getting it right!

So to those that helped me get it right occasionally, thank you!

I am tired of adding to my notifications and keeping them saved for answering when I cannot. I might post some stuff tomorrow but basically, I am saddened because I enjoyed this site a lot.
