Starting to make changes…

by

I’m starting to make changes to how my blog looks in preparation of turning it into a community website when I get the money I’ve been waiting for (and I’m annoyed that it’s still not been deposited in my bank account). I’ve got all the necessary plugins downloaded already, so I figured I would start work on the changes the site will need to transition to a community website from its current status as my blog. (BTW, I have not written this post or designed any of new pages with the help of AI.)

I’ve also separated my podcast episodes from the main blog posts like this one, as well as the videos. I won’t add my YouTube series videos here until I have the series plugin added when I have a paid hosted site elsewhere, to make it easier for you to find each episode.

A Good Start to the Weekend (and Next Week!)

by

Hey everyone,

Just a quick check-in for this Saturday’s post. After doing a video blog on Thursday, I wanted to keep today’s update a bit shorter, but still keep my Saturday tradition going!

It’s been a quiet week on the work front, so I’m really happy to share some positive news. I recently got confirmation from my supervisor at the site that they’re returning to work there, and they specifically want me back! This job is usually 10-hour shifts, and I get paid as a flagger, not a regular labourer, which is great. It’s a huge relief to know I’ll be working this Monday, and it definitely takes a bit of financial pressure off. I’m looking forward to getting things caught up and even being able to do laundry!

It’s always nice when things start looking up.

Hope you all have a great weekend! As you’re reading this, I’m likely out grabbing those free groceries I get most Saturdays, which is another little win.
