Hello, blogosphere, I am back! What, blogosphere isn’t a word yet? I hear it all the time. Perhaps I have it misspelled. In any case, I am back on the blog after losing a few days to technical difficulties and my usual malaise which makes it a major effort for me to do anything. I finally got back on my Chromebook. Phew! I know, I could have posted from my Tablet, as I used to do all the time, but that, too has become problematic. When I finish the post, I can’t type in a headline at all, and when I try to add categories and tags, the screen jumps every time I hit a key. For the last post, I got on my phone to add headline and tags.
Now I feel a little ashamed for not going through such a rigamarole again (but I KNOW rigamarole is a word! It has been a word for years!).
I found it in my Webster’s dictionary. “Rigamarole” is another spelling of “rigmarole.” I think the extra syllable adds to the expressiveness of the term. I recently read in an English history book about the origin of the word. Of course I cannot remember it now, but I know which book it was in, and I will look it up for use on a future blog post.
My bestie, Kim, is coming to visit today. Regular readers know she moved away early this year, to the detriment of my Saturday adventuring. I’m sure we will have a lot of fun today, although I am a little concerned at the forecast of high 80’s.
I had actually been looking for a Mohawk Valley adventure picture to share, but I found this one and couldn’t resist.
