A extra post for February and my February post.

No Comments »

Dear Readers,
I have a whole page of subjects. I thought, I had better post sooner. I might be able to post more than I thought but I’ll only say for sure of 1 a month.

Richard and I have been having more crock pot meals. We have meat slow cooked about twice a week. I have steak in there right now. I know, steak isn’t usually slow cooked but it’s good that way. I cook it just like roast. Richard cooks a few meals a week too, which helps out a lot.

Richard and I have worked out a more effective chore schedule. One person washes dishes and cleans the bathroom the other person dusts and sweeps the floors.

I’ve been watching less tv and reading more. I’ve read about 1 book a week. I really like to read and I almost forgot how much.

I’ve been exercising about 4 times a week. I’ve been riding a stationary bike or walking. I forgot how much more energy you have when you exercise regular.

We’ve had cable put in this past weekend.  I wanted to be able to watch the news and we’re having more trouble finding the shows we like online. We also got a DVR that I will review later.

Sorry, I didn’t finish that post up for you guys. I didn’t ever seem to have the time or was too tired to write a grammatically correct post. I know most of my post aren’t grammatically correct, but they are better when I’m not tired.

I have noticed that the blog doesn’t properly display on Internet Explorer. I’m unsure if this is a global trait of word-press or just a local trait of my word-press. I’m still working on getting it to work. The blog views perfectly on both Safari and FireFox. I don’t know if that’s true for you Aunt Valerie not sure what’s wrong there.

If you noticed I’ve changed my blog theme. I did it in hopes the theme was the cause of not displaying on IE. It wasn’t the theme. I really like the new theme though and will continue to use it for the time being. Leave me a comment and let me know if you like it. On a similar note I will be continuing to host through BlueHost.com. I liked the way they hosted this last year. There prices aren’t bad either. I am considering buying an extra domain name called mystarblog.com. I would only be charged a 10 dollar upkeep fee and it would just bump you to this page.

Has anyone noticed the amount of storage you can fit in the palm of your hand. I have 3 flash drive totaling 8 Gigabytes of space. I think on my first computer I remember having just 16 Gigabytes on the hard drive. If I now have 2.75 Terabytes of space avalible on my computers not counting Richard’s. 1 Terabyte is 1,000 Gigabytes, someone correct me if I’m wrong.

I went and had another colonoscopy done. Dr. Ravi refered me to Dr. Taxier to confirm his diagnosis. After the colonoscopy Taxier told me my colon looked healthy but he thought I had Crohn’s Disease. I’m glad to have a name for what I have but the treatment doesn’t sound real great. So far Taxier wants another test. A CAT scan of my small intestine. (Spell checker doesn’t like Colonoscopy.) He also mentioned having a colorectal surgeon cut out the ulcers and wick it to heal from the inside out. Sound’s painful, but if it works I’m for it.

Well, I think that’s all for now. A post with pictures coming soon. I have a picture of me, my quilt, the school gang, my tools I use at work, and my snow blower.

Your blogger,

Nathaniel Starlin
