During 2023 my email blog notifications seemed to get out of hand so that I was getting about 20 + extra WP emails a day on top of the junk mail and news, that took me to about 40-60 in total daily, sometimes up to 100 a day! This was maddening, so I un-email subbed from lots of blogs as well as shopping sites and so on, getting it down to an average of about 35-45 a day, still a bit steep, considering when I first got on the net (about 25 years ago), I’d probably only receive about 5 emails a week if that!

Over xmas and new year, I didn’t get any WP notifications of new blog posts, so I thought people just weren’t posting new stuff, I was really busy so I didn’t think much of it until recently, it seemed nothing new was going on anywhere, it wasn’t until almost the middle of January before I realised something must be wrong, so I checked my settings on the WP site and found that a checkbox was marked with “Block all emails”  How did that happen? I’m sure I hadn’t done it, had someone hacked in just to do that? I don’t think so, I must have done it by mistake, or else it was a glitch. I’d been getting so many notifications I’d actually been reducing them for a while, I just don’t have enough time to do justice to all blog posters, I’m getting 40-60 emails a day now, what with everything else that comes my way – I’m glad you’re all back though I shall continue to avoid as many of you as I can!

Thought of today – the more we learn, the less we know – I was thinking ah yes, when we are born, we know everything, or we think we do, we look around and take it all in, its so overwhelming and full of everything, we take it on board and begin to work out what’s going on, and that’s when the learning begins to nibble away at what we know, or come to think we knew, this goes on throughout life, by the time your getting to the end of it, it seems that you actually know almost nothing! Good grief, logically, one ought to know lots!

# Latest dream!

I dreamt we went to this old German city for a break but when we got on the plane to go home it didn’t take off and just went careering through the streets trying to fly, then finally it started going up, but it had no power and ended up back on the ground, We were back walking in the street so I was saying I don’t fancy getting another plane home, shall we get a boat or train or something? The thing was, I couldn’t actually remember getting off the plane, perhaps it had crashed and we were already dead? How would we know? 

Let’s have a silly song!
