The last (domain) sale we made was to a cruise company, and it pleases me because they’re pointing the name to their already-created site and it looks great. (Deaf vacations dot com) Some time back, I wasn’t aware of how often cruise companies will set up trips catering to the deaf. And now I’m aware of a bunch of other companies doing the same thing, but all their trips are for the deaf, not the public in general. I can’t believe some of the places they offer — Cuba, Antarctica. (It’s almost enough to convince me a cruise line won’t make me ill.) Not that I’m deaf.

No, but having a few vision problems. I had to change the resolution on my computer monitor to make everything much bigger. I’ll have to get a pair of glasses from the drugstore, I guess, that just enlarge, for reading books. Most of my glasses are those lineless bifocals type, and I’m finding it really challenging to find the right distance from the computer/book plus the right area on the lens to look through.


The weather here is not the terrible wintry storms other parts of the northeast have had, just a little bit of snow that immediately melted off the street, leaving white stuff just on the grass. And I see by weekend the temperature will again rise back to the 50s. This back-and-forth weather has just ruined the roads, with this freeze then thaw repeating. My town just resurfaced a lot of the streets only 6 months ago, and now they’re a pothole minefield. I have to plan my departures and returns so I remember to avoid the worst bit of road. My car is old and can’t take all that jouncing. But now, the other roads are almost as bad. If only I had a burro.
