As with so many things in my life, this blogthing is under review from the get-go. If it doesn't work for me, it's gone. Heck, I don't even know yet why I have it. Felt like it, it was a whim, a couple of months or so then didn't touch it until recently. Tentative.
Meanwhile, I'm trying to learn how to use Dreamweaver for the "real" website I'm long overdue in producing. So far, I'm not impressed with the thing. Seems to write stupid code like every other page builder I've used, and it hardly seems to be "wysiwyg". Of course, i could be failing to use it properly and take advantage of the best tools. Maybe. I've got someone I can ask when there's a good time for it.
Tentative. Actually, there are fewer tentative things in my life than, say, a year ago. I could use a few more solid ones, particularly in the professional side. The personal side is radically different and better than a year ago, or even six months ago. I had set out about a year ago to completely overhaul my personal life as never before and I did just that. I ought to be able to do that with my professional life.
Somehow, more fiddling around with the web seems to be a smart part of that effort but I've known for almost fifteen years what a terrible time suck even the simplest project can be. That's one reason I've been procrastinating re-educating myself and relaunching webpages. The template model, so common and yet... so what?... doesn't much suit me. Never has. That includes this page. But, hell, I'm here for now... for... what, I'm not at all clear yet.
On the other hand, just stepping forward and poking at things is motion that changes the environment, exercises mental muscles. I hardly knew what the hell I was doing last year attending various social functions beyond moving things but... it certainly led to good places.
I need to do different professional work, making use of what I've already been doing. I need to reconfigure and redirect. No sense in tossing out a bunch of things and starting from scratch.
Come to think of it, I didn't toss out anything in the personal overhaul. I actually just made more use of what I already had.
Hmmm....
