Awww … all over. It went darkish, but not completely dark. Then, that was it.

It came. We saw (sort of). It went.

That’s it here till 2044 when I will either be dead, or a living fossil.

And so … it has begun. The moon has moved into position and has begun it’s transit. An hour to go before full totality.

Just over an hour and a half to go till the eclipse starts it’s cycle here, in Quebec.

Help! Anyone …

I need someone to explain, step by step preferably, how to add a domain name to my next and final micro.blog blog. Do I create the micro.blog first, using whatever name, and then, add the domain name after? And how exactly do I add the name, since I cannot find anything about nameservers for Micro.blog so that the domain name will point to MB.

What am I missing? Knowing I’m probably misreading the instructions … again!

Thanks!

Does any one have an opinion or suggestion as to which micro.blog theme handles photos the best (in large format), as I’m thinking a photo blog for my next project.

Thanks!

Hey everyone, it’s official. I now have four micro.blogs on the go. For those of you who are interested and want to follow along, the blogs are:

  • alex ink — this is usually where you'll find me blogging on a daily basis
  • book blurb — for my book reviews, author interviews and general book talk
  • grub — all my fav recipes in one place
  • the story hub — a selection of my short fiction, WIP and excerpt
I hope you follow along and find something of interest to read.

autumn foliage in Quebec City, in the old port

I just got back from the nurse (she was taking yet more blood for yet more tests) and I am so thankful there is a clinic in the pharmacy that just happens to be inside our 6 block complex because …

It’s snowing … Yes, snowing.

We’re told we can expect up to 20 cm by end of day tomorrow. And there I thought it was actually spring here. Ha!

Winter is not done with us yet!

First World Problems

Just got back from yet another visit to the dentist. Last week it was the hygienist which set me back $300. Today it was for a 15 minute filling on a back molar which, for all the time I was there, just cost me another $295. Clearly if you want to make good money these days, you can’t go wrong choosing dentistry as your career path.

Throw in the fact I have yet another appointment on the 16th for a very expensive crown, at $1800. This will not only be an extremely expensive month, but also, there goes any hope of a summer holiday!

Bah humbug.

Not content with creating a food blog, a book blog and posting about daily life on my personal blog, I’m now wondering what to tackle as my next project … a micro.blog for my fiction, or a photo blog about where I live, here in Quebec? Although, given I have two more slots I can fill, I could just as easily do both. Right?

Well, at some point.

I love that I can now have all these blogs under one roof and post to each with ease, thanks to micro.blog for that. Not only is the process so much easier, I can now concentrate on the actual posts and less on fiddling and or tweaking. And, thanks to @Mtt, using the tiny theme, they all look great.

Anyway, stand by, as they say, there’s more to come.

And …

For those of you who might be interested, the new recipe blog is now live and cooking on the stove top here: GRUB

Why, yes, yes I did call it Grub!

Two blogs in and, I’m already thinking about what else I want to blog about and … I’m leaning towards creating a blog for food, namely, recipes to share, as so many people are always on the look out for a good recipe, myself included.

I was thinking of calling it … no, wait, why spoil the surprise. You’ll have to wait till I get it operational. That’s this weekend’s plans sorted.

Let the recipes roll …
