The Blogger's Prayer

Lord help me to learn to spell without spellcheck, manage to visit all that visit me, and post regularly - all in 5 minutes a day, so that I can clean house and take care of my family. Help me to not look at every occurrence in my life as a blog post, and to quit taking pictures of weird things to share as well. Please Lord, help me to stop talking about my blog friends as though they are next door neighbors or someone I have known all of my life. And help me dear Lord, to think of something witty and wise to post tomorrow.

My neighborhood and other thoughts.

My how my neighborhood has grown since I started blogging in December 2007. I currently have 40 Great Neighbors listed on my Blog Rolls of Honor.So it does take me a while to visit with all of my neighbors in addition of keep my blog postings going. I guess that is why i like to add the different You Tube stuff that I add,some are for fun,and some are meaningful things that I add as well.
I added the music to my blog as a way to share some of the different music that I enjoy.
I will occasionally will add more Hammered Dulcimer music to my blog as well.
I alway enjoy doing my blog,of course ther will be days that I will not do any postings,on those days the depression that I live with or the seizures will be too much and I just want to rest and or sleep on those days.

  1. The next step is to think about getting yourself an RSS feed. That way you don't have to go to all your favorite sites, you get them in your reader automatically. It's a real time saver.

  2. Thanks for the comment on the tax posting that I did. It is a crying shame that this great country is in the financial situation that we are in. I remember when Clinton left office we were debt free. I don't even think our grandchildren's generation will be able to pay off this debt. Tell me if I am wrong, but it seems as if I read some place that Bush bankrupted the State of Texas by the time he finished there as Governor. I don't know that for a fact, but can imagine it to be true considering the finacial straights our country is in.

    Thanks again for your comment...

  3. Noelle,thanks for stopping by.I'd add the rss feed if I knew how to.

    Jo,Here is a sad thought,every time he failed in a business venture,he was bailed out ny the Saudi government or at least by the ruleling family.They own him.

  5. Hi mike, i signed up with http://www.bloglines.com , i pull that up and it shows all my blogger friends and when they have posted. If someone hasnt posted then i instantly see and it saves me time of surfing all my friends blogs:).
    Thank you for the prayer. I truly appreciate it.

    Blessings.

  6. I agree with Noelle. I've been experimenting with Google Reader and it's been a rousing success. I'm able to keep up with my community without it taking up so much time.

    It has also allowed me to expand my community.

  7. Hi mike,
    I also have www.bloglines.com, which shows when one of your friends have posted...so you go to visit with them...it is real easy to set yourself up...and it works like a charm saving you lots of wasted time...
    good luck with finding a shortcut for visiting...I am afraid I don't know how to do the RSS feed myself...

  8. Mike,

    You are a great neighbor. I enjoy visiting here. I also have many on my blogroll and have to chose which ones to visit on different days. Sometimes, like today, I don't get on until quite late.

    I will be praying for you that your health issues improve. Now I'm off to catch up on your other posts.

    Blessings,
    Mary

  9. It all Good,My childhood memories are skattered at best.Due to the seizures that I have the memory is verry scrambled and so trying to remember things are hit and miss,some things just pop in and out other things just are lost.Such as all the songs I learned hoe to play on my Hammered Dulicmer.

    Mysti and Travis,I will answer both of you at the same time since both you remarks are related.I would love to do as you guys suggested,but I'm not that great at computer stuff.So I would have to be walked thru the process as a parent would treach their child how to do something.


    Mimi,I went to bloglines and started an account and that I got stuck and did not know what I'm doing.

    Mary what I might start doing is splitting up the blog roll visits into mananageable visiting days.

  10. I love having you as a blog friend :) I enjoy stopping by for your posts.
    I noticed your comment regarding RSS feeds. If you go my blog or anyone's blog and click on the area that says "Subscribe" with the orange icon, you can subscribe to someone's blog and have their posts pulled into Google Reader. Since you're on Gmail, while you're logged in reading your email messages, you can click on "Reader" at the top of the page and read the blog entries you've subscribed to via RSS.

    Hope that didn't confuse you :)

  13. I like your tastes in music. Music is my whole world (almost). Have you heard Laraji? He's a new age hammered dulcimer player. some of it's pretty good. Brian Eno produced his first record i think. I'm a big Eno fan.

  17. Herr Golch,

    It's been some time. My apologies for my prolonged absence. One of the true challenges of maintaining an online journal is balancing work with journaling with play and so forth.

    Your blog is looking lively as ever. Congrats and speak soon.

  21. Speaking of neighborhoods...
    I see you are in Cleveland, Ohio. I spent all my life, up until this past June, living about 45 minutes south of Cleveland.

    I'm still an Ohioan at heart, and will always cherish my beloved Cleveland Indians.
