Regarding Techarcana.net and other fun stuff ;)

 I've had to fallback to this old thing of a blog, because I'm strapped financially and blogger, at least for now, is still free. I do still own the domain, and once I figure out how to do it, maybe I'll see about redirecting my domain to this, rather than a WordPress site. Admittedly Blogger is a lot less of a pain to manage, although, on the flipside, WP tends to be more flexible, and I can, if I'm desperate edit the backend code where needed to implement additional functionality.

Unfortunately, I have added ads to the site, but if you want to use an ad blocker I won't be offended, but that said, if you're willing to create an exception for this site, I'd appreciate it. This is far from being a profitable venture for me, but I'm hoping that I can make it something that I can do as a 'job' at some point, so that I can stop having to work for others, and start working for myself. Perhaps I'll even add my other half, so that she can share her interests and such (we have very different hobbies, so perhaps her posts will appeal to those who are geeky in other ways than technology, etc. She's an arts & crafts type of person, along with other interests that I'll let her describe.)

Anyhoo, in other news, I got my second Pfizer shot, so I am officially 'inoculated' against Covid-19, yay me. I guess we'll see what, if anything, it does to me over the next couple of weeks. The first shot really didn't do much more than cause a bit of fatigue, and soreness in the joints. Other than that I was fine, and it passed within a few days. (Thankfully, I seem to resist most side effects of medications, not sure why, but I'm glad that it's the case.)

Anyway, in conclusion, for now, I hope you're all doing well, especially given the world we've all been living in over the last 1-2 years as of this post. Let me know if there's something that you would like to talk about here, or if you want to share how you're doing. I'd be very interested to hear it.

Thanks for reading :)
