Distractions

The Hearth­fire Guild looks very inter­est­ing. Unfor­tu­nate­ly, I nei­ther knit nor crochet 🙁

Okay, Sam was right. I am hav­ing trou­ble mov­ing this morn­ing. I don’t like to think it’s just because of the house­work I did yes­ter­day, but yes, that’s prob­a­bly the rea­son. Blech. I hate hav­ing a bro­ken body. I guess that’s a pret­ty clear answer about the fourth class, isn’t it? Ouch.

My meta­sym­bol­o­gy card for today is inter­est­ing to me. I feel that I’m miss­ing some­thing, some­how, so I keep pok­ing at it mentally:
The pow­er­ful Sev­en of Spades will chal­lenge you to rise to high­er lev­els of think­ing, speak­ing, and act­ing. Its chal­lenges will man­i­fest main­ly in the areas of work and health, areas where you are like­ly to be hold­ing some neg­a­tive pat­terns that need to be changed. If you are will­ing to take respon­si­bil­i­ty for your con­di­tion and prac­tice pos­i­tiv­i­ty in spite of cir­cum­stances, you can real­ize the pow­er­ful spir­i­tu­al poten­tial of this card and attain new heights. In its high­est form, this is the card of FAITH.

One of my mail­ing lists, mag­ick­stitch­es, was down for five days. I could­n’t view the mem­ber list and no mes­sages were going through at all. Since the group had 221 mes­sages in the first two weeks of August, that seemed odd to many people. 

I emailed support@yahoogroups.com as instruct­ed in the error mes­sage I got when try­ing to view the mem­ber list. I got a whol­ly use­less autore­sponse telling me to go to the help sec­tion of Yahoo’s web­site and sub­mit my ques­tion there—no link to a spe­cif­ic sec­tion, of course. That’s pret­ty much par for the course for my past expe­ri­ences with their “sup­port.” But I did go and sub­mit my question.

Lo and behold, now the group is back up! Since I did­n’t get so much as an autore­sponse from Yahoo after resub­mit­ting the prob­lem report, I don’t know for sure that doing so is why the list is fixed, but it could be. If so, this is the first time I have ever got­ten any “help” from Yahoo’s per­son­nel, despite hav­ing con­tact­ed them repeat­ed­ly over the years. Wow.

I’m eat­ing because sam­bear put food in front of me. I’m so tired and achy that I’m not enjoy­ing it, although it is very yum­my. I hate it when I feel like this. Blech.
