I jogged for twenty minutes this morning, incorporating a new path extension into my jogging route. My previous baseline was fifteen minutes but I was starting to get bored. It was definitely time to extend it a little bit.
I recently heard that for a person to start losing weight, he or she needs to exercise for an hour a day. I have no idea where that idea/statistic came from - but maybe down the line I’ll reach that kind of daily activity.
I’m still seeing a fat man in the mirror - but I know if I get myself out and exercising four times a week, and keep building on the exercise habit, that this will eventually change.
Edit: it’s been fixed now.
Can’t login to Gmail right now … here’s what it’s telling me:
We’re sorry, but your Gmail account is currently experiencing errors. You won’t be able to use your account while these errors last, but don’t worry, your account data and messages are safe. Our engineers are working to resolve this issue.
Please try accessing your account again in a few minutes.
I’m curious just how “temporary” this error will be. That I can remember - never had a login problem with Gmail until now.
There are times when Gmail will tell me that it cannot upload a .zip file because it contains an .exe file - even though I know there is no such .exe file in the .zip I’m trying to upload. So I’m not sure what the actual problem really is.
I do transport these .zip files from MacBook to PC and vice versa - so I’m wondering if that somehow creates the problem. So far I cannot find the solution online.
Anyone know what is going on here?
This past week we attended my grandfather’s funeral. A company was hired to record the funeral and they did a wonderful job. The day after the funeral, a recording of the funeral talks and musical numbers was available to us. This recording will become a treasured part of our family history and it occurred to me that others might want to know about this possibility as well.
The service we used can be found at funeralrecording.com
My grandfather, Tracy Hall, passed away this morning at about 3am. He was a wonderful example and influence in my life and he will be missed. Besides loving him because he is such an important part of our family, we also are proud of him because of his achievements as a notable scientist and inventor.
My sister wrote a blog post that has lots of wonderful pictures and stories about him.
You can read a wikipedia entry about him here.
