san diego is incredible. warm. and oceany. had mexican for dinner at this cool little restaurant. we aren't actually in san diego. we are staying in carlsbad, about 25 miles north of san diego. the conference is at the northcoast church in vista, CA.

i put my fingers in the pacific ocean for the first time today. and i looked west over the water. i saw dolphins jumping.

this life is amazing to me.

Greg!

When you get back I have a blog question for you!? Yes, you did indeed inspire me to create my own blog world. It's way too addicting! By the way, enjoy the warm weather, it's snowing here, again, on top of the two feet of snow we already have!

Hi Greg!

The first one I figured out (it was how do I get the site meter -found it and counting away at an awesome 12 total)!

I was also wondering about archiving, does this happen automatically, or is there something I should be doing so I don't have 15 differ. posts on my blog...? I don't want to delete them, do I? I'm so new to this whole world of blog!

Thanks for your help!

the archiving should happen automatically, although i believe you can set how many posts you would like to have on your page at once. in other words, you can determine how many are still visible on the main page.

let's say you set it that you only want posts within the last week to be on the main page. if a post is 8 days old, it will automatically be archived. it can still be viewed by people, they just have to click on "older posts" or on one of the themes you have given it. for example, on my blog, if you click on poetry, you will be taken to a page that will show you all the posts i've labeled as poetry.

what i'm saying is that just because a post doesn't show up on your main page, it doesn't mean you've lost it. and you shouldn't delete it, unless you don't want anyone seeing it anymore.

hope that helps.

Thanks Greg! That did help. I didn't want to wait a whole month before I knew whether my posts were archived. I did change my settings to daily. This is pretty cool.

ps: have you blogged me yet?

bad haircuts (for a laugh)

everybody needs to laugh.  one good way i have found to make that happen is to do a simple google image search for 'bad haircut.'  when you do so, some of the following gems show up.  thankfully, my 9th grade school picture does NOT show up.  otherwise, it would certianly make this list!  please laugh freely and without inhibition.  thank you and have a nice day. 

happiness is dry underwear

we started potty training jack on thursday. we followed a program called POTTY TRAIN IN ONE DAY, which, by the way, i think is kind of crazy. i mean, if someone were to offer you a book called, "ACHIEVE WORLD PEACE IN ONE DAY" i don't think you would take it seriously. and yet here we are, trying to accomplish an equally daunting task in one 24-hour period. it is intense. the day is shrouded in a lie because as soon as your happily diapered child wakes up you tell him that it is a big party. we had balloons and streamers and noisemakers and silly string - all the trappings of a legitimate party. but it is most certainly not a party. it is a hellishly exhausting day. as soon as jack got out of bed, we gave him a present: an anatomically correct doll that wets himself. jack named him quincy. several times quincy successfully peed in the potty and even had an accident or two in his "big boy underwear." he also dropped a deuce that looked and smelled sus

the crucifixion of Robert Lewis

  "the crucifixion of Robert Lewis" mixed media collage with leaves, acrylic paint, and found objects by gregory a milinovich october 2023 this october i was invited to participate in a three day trip which was called a "pilgrimage of pain and hope."  while that may not sound super exciting to many of you, it actually really intrigued me.  i am the kind of person that wants to feel big feelings, and i am drawn to the deep places, so  i was interested in traveling to the scranton area, where the trip was planned, to see what it might look like to be a pilgrim that was wide-eyed and listening to the pain and the hope in the stories of others.   this trip included hearing the stories of immigrants to the northeastern pennsylvania area, and the work in the coal mines that many of them did.  it included hearing from folks who are working for housing justice and equity in downtown scranton.  it included hearing from those indigenous people who first inhabited that land.
