FINALLY (actually written bet 20131002 and 20131007)

INSERTED NOTE:  I'm not sure what the original date of my writing this post is.  I can tell by the content that it was sometime between October 1 and October 8.  I know it was AFTER October 1 because I had hoped to submit the Wells Fargo grant application in September, and we missed that date.  I also know it was BEFORE October 8, since that is David T's birthday, and I knew that I was going to try to remember to wish him a Happy Birthday on that date.

So the date is likely to have been sometime between October 2-7.

****************

FINALLY, a bit of relief.  Why?
1.  Andy and I finished our document for Wells Fargo.  After a month+ of delay.
2.  DAVID T called!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Although there is nothing for sure, it appears that his "big money" will be deposited in his account within the next 2 weeks.  I know, it's not for sure.  But he's more positive now than he's ever been.

SIGH - BIG SIGH!!

Heavy winds are blowing here in Winnetka.  Winds of change?  I hope!  I'll take them - I don't have much else to take.

And Lisa et al are feeling better today.  YAY!

And Andy and I patched things up after our "blow up" (for me)/"emotional response" (for him).

All is better.

Thank heavens, thank MCG, thank me....... maybe my knee will even be better now.

The above was NOT written on Saturday, October 26.  (That's the date right now.)  Apparently, if I don't "save" AND "publish,"  my writing on a given day/date is only a "draft."  If I then, at a later time, "publish" it, it becomes a post for the day I publish it.  Not for the day I actually wrote it.

Grrrrrrrrr.

How can I know when I wrote the above??

I guess I could "revert to draft" - that might put it back to a draft created on a certain past date.

****************

After a preliminary search for how to retrieve the date on which I actually WROTE this post.... it seems that I can't retrieve it at all.  I might be missing something.  I HOPE I'm missing something.  It seems to me that there should be some record of the date on which I actually wrote it.  But that date is not apparent - at least not yet.

I can guess the date by the content.  I'll do that.  But I HATE that I have to do that.  Why?  Because what if there were nothing in the content that would even allow a good guess?  What then?  I'd only know that it was on a day before today.  I MIGHT remember that it was about a week ago, or some such.  But I wouldn't KNOW for sure.

And I do want to KNOW for sure.

*sigh*

I believe I'll revert to inserting the current date in each post.  That way, I'll KNOW for sure.

NOTE:  Others might be able to think this issue through easily without writing about it.  Others might not care about exact dates.  Others might ridicule my meticulous approach.  But I am me.  I often wish I didn't have this aspect of my personality, which aspect often seems like a plague to me.  But it's there.  I am me.  And I will act on it, and hope it doesn't destroy or distract me from weightier issues too much.
