Change doesn’t come easy for a stubborn bull. In my case the challenge will be finding a better balance between the real and virtual worlds.

If only I can invent a day longer than 24 hours and clone myself I might have a fighting chance.

Don't get discourage because a change is needed. That's life's process. My motto is "Change or Be Changed". If we wait too long to change, life makes the change for us. Take a break, take your laptop to the mountain and DO WHAT YOU LOVE MOST! Most importantly, enjoy every breath you take of this gift of life. "Been there, done that", then it's time to do something different. I moved to another country (my version of Paradise) where people speak a different language. That really shook up what I took for granted! I wouldn't change it for the world. Teri Near death experiences ALWAYS causes a re-evaluation of what’s important and what’s not.

I have a tendency to edit my posts. I see writing as a journey and sometimes it will take me to places that I never expected when I commenced the odyssey. Perhaps I should hit the "draft" option more often before publishing, but even then I still find a mistake or have something further to say.<br/><br/>You can of course stop this from showing up as a new item by turning off your newsreader's option that displays updated posts as being new.<br/><br/>For example, if you use bloglines go into the feed properties by clicking on "Edit Subscription". There you will see an option that says "Updated Items". Choose "Ignore". However, by doing that you might not have the most recent version on your screen.<br/><br/>Sorry for the inconvenience and I hope you don't feel the need to hide behind anonymity. I won't be upset.

And it's not unusual for it to regurgitate 10-12 posts at once from time to time. I'm likely to unsubscribe from this feed because it's tiresome to see the same post pop up time after time. Nothing wrong with your posts, but something's triggering too many feeds. Did you know that your feed spits out about three or four copies of each post you make over the course of a day?
