The Serendipity Journal is moving!
Sorry it has been so long since the last post. Things have not been running to plan lately. We started work on a self-hosted website for this blog back in June. It took a lot longer than expected to get the site up and running.
We’ve finally got the Serendipity Journal migrated to its [...]

I missed last week’s post. I’m in danger of missing this week’s as well. There’s so much to do…
When I was laid-off in February, I didn’t anticipate how busy I would be in unemployment. In the last two weeks, I spent a day’s time applying for food stamps and almost two days reapplying for financial [...]

It’s now a little over three weeks since the layoff. The past week has been very busy and challenging, but also extremely rewarding. One of the things this experience has taught me is that the rest of your life doesn’t end just because you lose your job.

It’s December 31st as I write this. It’s had to believe that another year is drawing to a close, and it’s surprising to realize that this blog is now eight months old. Time flies when you’re learning new stuff!

Sorry for the lack of posts last week; I spent the week off-line at Boy Scout summer camp. For the past four years, I’ve spent a week out of each summer with our Troop at Camp Falling Rock. I like going to summer camp: sleeping in tents, working in the program areas, eating in the Dining Hall, [...]

I’ve been using this Serendipity Journal as an on-line version of my prayer journal. So far, I’ve limited it to simply rewriting what I’ve been exploring in my hand-written, bound journal; here’s a new opportunity to explore the technological power of this on-line journal, freeing it to become something more.
