a short rant

Hey Guys!

Hey Guys! If I accidentally posted something that belongs to you, copyrighted or otherwise, don’t get all cranky and be a jerk.

Just leave a comment, and I will  give you credit and some link love, or delete the offending pic.

Also, be aware that I don’t always stay on top of my email, and it might take me a little while to respond.

So, take a chill pill and stay calm. Most of these little sites get like… I dunno… at most 10 page views on any given day, which means virtually no one saw your pic.

And seriously? I make $0.00 … yes, zero dollars from this little site, so it’s not like your picture benefited me in any way… I just thought it was awesome, I thought it was free to post, and apparently I was wrong. Apologies!

 

Down The Rabbit Hole Again

So I fell down the Rabbit Hole today… big time! I decided to post something simple. LOL! And it got complicated really fast. Here’s what happened:

I thumbed through my herb book for a quick and easy herb and right away found something short and sweet about Arborvitae… which after about 15 minutes of research… turned into a much longer and very confusing journey. Here are the highlights:

  • Eastern Red Cedar and Western Red Cedar are two completely different species.
  • Arborvitae, is also Thuga.
  • Or it could simply be called  Yellow Cedar
  • But it isn’t really a “Cedar”
  • Western Red Cedar is a Juniper that is completely different from the OTHER Juniper
  • No wait… they are almost the same.
  • Plus, in the category of “Cedar” and “Juniper” there are a bunch of other trees that may or may not have the same medicinal or magickal qualities.

Like I said… confusing. I am however starting to make sense of it, and by the time the day is done, I will have a bunch of posts I think. Here’s the first one:

More is on the way. Trust me, I have so many tabs open on my laptop that I can’t even believe it! And here we go:

Which also means that the following pages have been newly updated:

Ok.. that took all day and now I’m done. I hope you find something you enjoy.

Feeling Discouraged

I really shouldn’t ever look at my stat counter reports because it always discourages me, especially when I know I have uploaded some really cool stuff, and nobody sees it. And then when page views go down… well… sigh…

And I keep telling myself that it really doesn’t matter, because I enjoy my website, I like how it challenges me to learn about all kinds of different stuff, and it gives me an easy way to save and share ideas and insights with family and friends.

Plus, it’s a complicated site, and not really in sync with the way things are normally done, so there’s that….

Also, there’s the Google thing. Google pretty much determines who sees what, and what gets seen when a person does a search. Their algorithms are tweaked to benefit Google’s bank account. And my website doesn’t do Google any financial favors. We are ad free. So there’s that!

So that’s my rant for the day. And now on to the posting of stuff that I have uploaded today:

This is a hot mess of a list. Most of the posts are random stuff that I wanted to clear out of folders because I am tired of looking at them. They can be found at More Cool Pictures, and Totally Random.

The Hawaiian Healing Technique is pretty interesting if you have never heard of Ho’oponopono. The 20 Ways To Maintain A Healthy Level Of Insanity is a fun read. I might even try a couple of the things on the list. The Sign Of Purification post is a Native American Prophecy which you might find interesting.

Things I Remember really got to me. It’s what I remember about my childhood, and brought up a lot of old emotions. So, now I’m feeling done with the internet and ready for a some fresh air and a nap… or maybe just a nap.
