There are going to be things I can't get to right now.

While I've been trying to be out & about and cover things, there will be happenings I can't get to until I recover more. Like today's middle school football scrimmage. I'm not able to carry my chair & camera bag to the field. Plus, there's high school softball at 6. I don't know about covering the football game at Dodge on August 18 because it would be difficult to get my chair inside, let alone find a place for it on the sideline. If I don't make something, please know it's not a matter of caring. It's a matter of being able to physically handle it.

Update on my health and coverage plans.

I am doing better, but I'm not back completely yet. And that may affect how some things are covered.

Possible site down time late Friday night.

Received word from my web host that the server company will be doing maintenance Friday night from 9 pm to 12 am PST. If there is any disruption of the website during that time, there's the reason why. If I decide to cover 12u baseball playoffs that evening, I will try to get pictures posted beforehand.

Why the BOE meeting story is delayed.

I attended Tuesday night's Board of Education meeting. Items discussed included approving student handbooks for the upcoming year. Because I would want to include a link to the handbooks, and possibly use other links, I am waiting until the meeting is updated on Simbli.

Apologies for the site outage today.

As I'm still recovering from my health issues, I was resting this morning and didn't know until after 1 about the site being down. Don't know what happened, but I'm sorry the site was down.

Wrong day listed in BCMS tennis article.

I incorrectly said the MGMSAA tennis finals at BCMS would be held today. They will be held tomorrow at 4 pm. I apologize for the mistake.

I'm home (again), so what's next?

I got discharged from the hospital today. Exhaustion and computer trouble delayed me getting online. Here is an update on where things stand.

Hospital stay delaying BOE meeting story.

My original discharge date from the rehab hospital was to be tomorrow. I planned on typing up a story on Tuesday night's Board of Education meeting. However, my stay has been extended due to Monday because of an issue with getting an IV antibiotic I will be taking at home. While I can do a lot of work on the laptop I'm typing on, stories like the BOE meeting would be easier to do from a desktop computer. I apologize for the delay.

Why some scores have been getting posted later.

While I do have Internet access, I am on the schedule of the rehab hospital. The past couple of days, I've had early morning therapy. Therefore, I back dated some articles when posting. I apologize for the delay, but it's the only way I know to get a semblance of rest for therapy plus keep the site updated. I remain committed to doing my best job possible in covering the community. Thanks for your support.
