So I didn't get a post up yesterday. And I finished my review of the Kodak M340, great little camera by the way, and that didn't go up either. In fact that was done over a week ago and I've not been able to sit at my computer long enough to post it to Nerdyblog.com. I haven't done any work this week either. I feel bad because of this, but also because I have mild scoliosis. I just found that out today. So I am in a lot of pain physically; pinched nerves and all that. My dad passed away last night as well so you could say I'm having a pretty good week. The doctor says that the scoliosis, or curving of the spine, is due an untreated spinal injury. Lucky for me my condition is treatable. The reason I haven't treated it soon is the pain of it comes and goes. I would go many many months at a time with no pain. I just figured I had bad hips like my mom, but no my hips are great. It is my spine that sucks. I have so much work I'm not doing right now; new theme for this site, product reviews, new website design and matching newsletter. Hopefully I'll be able to sit for longer than 15 minutes at a time starting next week. Hopefully.

So I started using Google Calendar a little over a week ago. I set up my agenda with multiple events to repeat every week. Things I need to do that I usually put off. I did this in hopes that it would be a way to get me to do them. So far it's not working out as well as I'd hoped. I have a podcast that I post for a client every Monday, that didn't go up until Tuesday this week. I think the only thing I've actually done on time according to my agenda is make a new post to this site. It is kind of disappointing that the report is more about my failings than success. I have a Lynda.com account that I've been neglecting. One of my agenda items was to stop doing that. I'm probably going to do a course later today. Seems like I'm turning into the "camera guy" over at Nerdyblog. I now have 5 cameras to review. Guess I should get started on that.
