Bluejay, Blogging, Social Media & Observations

Bluejay Observatory

 A bluejay will perch atop the unused clothesline pole, check out the bird seed area, then fly down to snack.  The bluejay, seen through the patio window, is a sight that makes me smile. Thus far, it is the only bird I've seen perch there. 

Blogging.
Searching for an easy to use blog template is on going. The search can be so frustrating, limiting the amount of time for me is a must. 
A few I have previewed appear to require posting on an HTML type coded page. The set ups are nothing like the Blogger Compose view page. I think I would have decided on a template by now if they were as easy to use as Blogger. 
As a result, I am looking into online website design courses. If you have recommendations, then please share.

Social media.
The way we keep in touch, methinks social media works for people numbers, big families, groups, but for individuals friends and family, personal contact through email and texts are better. Having the time set aside, I feel, is important. 
Facebook doesn't have a fan here. There is no delete option in Edit photo, and none that I've found to stop Facebook's photo synch feature. The solution is to leave Facebook.

Observations.
~ Almost every idea I have sends me to an Internet search. I miss the library research section. No screen can replace the feel of a real book.
~ I haven't been to Central Park in New York City since the summer of 1968.
~ Week-end lists that I post, I might attempt 1 to 3 items. I have yet to sing to anything other than food I'm preparing and TV commercials.
~ Breaking ideas down to the simplest point can open them to even better ideas. 
~ Wanting to learn something is a losing lottery ticket, if no action is taken to learn.
