Self will still post, though no more joining photo challenges, as WordPress informed her that she had exceeded her storage limit by 120%. This is a really, really long-lasting blog: when she started it, son was still in Cal Poly/San Luis Obispo. She doesn’t want to do what she did last year: She coughed up $300 just so WordPress wouldn’t keep threatening to take her blog down. This year, she paid $96 for the “premium” plan which just means she gets to keep her blog. But she’s not a business; who knows how much longer she’ll be able to keep this up.
Her quote of the day is from the latest issue of The Economist:
In the years to come, NATO armed forces will queue at the door of Ukraine’s general staff to learn from the commanders who halted the Russian army’s march on Kyiv and Odessa and inflicted more than 60,000 casualties in six months of war.

Stay tuned, dear blog readers. Stay tuned.

🙂 The problem that a lot of bloggers do is that they do not resize and compress their images.
My current WordPress blog has been around since 2018 and I have only used .5% of my storage space.

I usually blog in the middle of doing something else, which is my fault for being impatient. Thanks for the tip about compressing images. I’ll try that.
