  1. STATUS UPDATE AS OF 31 AUG 2016

    Today, my household goods arrived.  All 110 boxes of them. (Yes, you read that correctly.)

    Going through all of those boxes is going to take some time, as you might imagine. I've found my monitor and the tower so far but not the rest of the cords yet. The rest will turn up later, I'm sure

    But all is not well in Casa de Sith Holocron!  My computer desk is trashed. It is beyond repair and so I'll need to get a new one. This irritates me quite a bit. You see: when I do a move, I usually set up my computer first then unpack everything else.  This is throwing me off my schedule plus there's the little matter of everything costing more here in Kodiak because of the outrageous shipping fees.  Wish me luck in getting this all sorted out!


  2. STATUS UPDATE AS OF 30AUG2016

    My previous updates stand - I still don't have my desktop computer.  Grrrrrrrrrrrrr!
     
    Current Verdict: I'm still not back yet. :(
     
    PS: Just because you see me posting, it still doesn't quite mean I'm back.  I'm doing so on my smart-phone (which has limited reception) or occasionally on my wife's laptop (which I loathe even more than when I last posted).


  3. STATUS UPDATE AS OF 18AUG2016

    My previous updates stand with the following exceptions:

     

    Transportation: My car arrived on the island yesterday.  I am able to pick it up today!  Woot!
     
    Current Verdict: I'm not back yet. :(

  4. STATUS UPDATE AS OF 12AUG2016

    Internet: Activated! That's actually earlier than originally announced or expected. (About a few days ago)
     
    Arrival of computer (and other household goods): Approximately September 3rd
     
    What This Means For You: I'm checking in occasionally on my cell phone on an island that historically has always had bad cell phone service. I don't have my all of my links on my smartphone and can't really do easy copy and pastes on it either. (Oh I'm certain that there's a way to do the copy and pasting on my phone, mind you - but with everything else going on IRL here, it's extremely low on my priority list.)

  5. I still have to get the details of shipping my car worked out.  I'll take all of the good luck I can for that to happen correctly!

     

    Working on adding filters to my Gmail so I can have it self sort new messages into specialized folders while I'm away from the computer for the long period. (That will also automatically send message of requests to approve new files into my Trash as I'm sure plenty of new ones will be created while I'm away.)
