Lets see how many times I can re-write
Personal AA recovery site and photoblog including things useful to my recovery from Alcoholism and snippets of my life.
Update 7hrs Later
Seems they could go with the following.
Personal AA recovery site including AA Words of Wisdom, Big Book Audio, Recovery Links as well as experiences of recovery from alcoholism. This site also incorporates my photoblog with a love of low light, landscape, seascape and architectural photography.
This site has been running on the free open source blogging software WordPress for the 4 past years, starting on wordpress 2.0.2.
Congratulations to wordpress on the release of 3.0
Very quick “10 min” upgrade to the latest and greatest version of wordpress went smoother than a babies arse.
Should be mostly transparent to the presentation of the site but makes using wordpress as a CMS rather easier. All the plugins I use are still working too, which is a bonus.
Fabulous job by the WP team who produce this rather excellent free software.
Happy New Year to the Internet and Recovery peeps, this must have been the quietest Christmas Holiday I’ve ever had and I must say that the break has been much needed. Contrast that to last years Christmas Ghana trip, for my brothers wedding, it has certainly been less eventful and far colder but good all the same.
Passing on a message that was given me in my early days which was to be careful post holiday period. Particularly after my first few Christmases in recovery I found, having had my defences up against the excesses of the period around me, January was quite a comedown. There also seems a higher than normal rate of relapse after Christmas, so I will, as usual, up my meetings for a bit and get back into a regular routine.
Keep Safe and Happy.
Thanks to the lovely Sérgio Luís Lopes Júnior and his very clever IEs 4 linux script for wine and some free time finally, I got to test this site with Internet Explorer for the first time in a while, not surprisingly the layout was screwed on IE only, so hopefully now fixed for everyone still stuck on IE.
Also finally got round to fixing the sobriety calculator “235,177,452 seconds” Yay……..
The newly revamped gallery section is starting look to presentable too, although in the interests of preserving Tradition 11 and to protect the innocent and the not so innocent all those pics with people in em have had to be hidden from public view.
How Bizzare the internet is, this little collection of AA stuff and my idle posts on random stuff somehow ranks seventh in the Alexa ranking for UK AA sites listed in the dmoz Open Directory Project… http://www.alexa.com/
Also ranks 9th in Europe not sure how accurate that is but sounds kinda cool, I only hope this little site spreads the message a bit.
