Labor Day! No time to play! No words to say!

September begins! August ends!

I cleaned the bathroom today. Scrubbed the sink, counter top, tub and toilet--vacuumed the floor. It is ready for this week's guests--a great aunt of the grandkid and cousin (I think that is the lineage). With four generations of people involved it's difficult to keep an accurate score. I still need to clean my room--mostly vacuuming the floor and dusting.

Tomorrow sets off the string of events that will consume the coming week--CRP testing, dance classes (3), a Sunday dance from 2-5pm, visiting relatives, appointment next Monday with the neurologist, and many other parts and pieces. I'm feeling stronger in some ways and I just nap when I need to, no matter what. Plus I have to schedule the prescribed colonoscopy, possibly get called for the dental scaling sessions, and who knows what else.

Busy, busy! But seemingly standing still--not going anywhere!

I woke up last night around 2am and had some difficulty getting back to sleep. Actually, I picked up my phone and spent time doing image searches of people that I know. I discovered that there are a lot of images out there in cyberspace that people don't know are there. For example, I googled my daughter's name and pulled up about 300 of her photos that she has stored somewhere on line. I don't think she knows that all of those images are floating in the cloud for anyone to browse.

The web is a wondrous but scary thing! Too much information in too many places! I just remembered  that in the barbershop yesterday a young girl (about 4 or 5) was playing with her dad's phone. At one point, she encountered a request for one of his passwords. She told him it was all right--she knew which password he used in this situation. Astounding! What is it going to be like in just a few years where every kid is so used to accessing information with these devices--dealing with downloads, passwords, installations, uninstalls, saving data, printing, and apps? Oh, brave new world (if it's not already)!
