Been locked out since Dec. 29th

Sunday, December 31st, 2017

I’ve been locked out of my diary since Friday night.  This is incredibly frustrating.  I’ve emailed support but don’t expect anything to happen over New Years weekend.  Hopefully, by tomorrow, it’s back up and running.

I had three dreams about Medhia this morning.  In each iteration, she was slightly healthier but still sick.

I didn’t cry or get upset seeing her that way because I knew they were dreams.  But, it was also nice to see her and get to pet her.  I miss her a lot.  She should be home soon.  I still have no idea where to place her urn.

As of 10:58 a.m. I’m still locked out.  It doesn’t matter if I try and reset my password, it keeps going back to the log in screen.  I’ve even cleared my cache which sucks because now I have to re-enter some information on various sites.  I should probably set my browser automatically clear my cache anyways for security reasons.

I’ve been locked out; again, for a couple of days.  I emailed support but didn’t expect an answer until today or tomorrow since this was a holiday weekend.

Just after I emailed The Diary Master, my password reset finally worked.  I don’t know how many I tried, but it was at least once a day.

After my shower tonight, I was looking at Gizmo’s urn and started getting really sad and missing Medhia.  Her nest is still by my bed. I haven’t gone to that side of the room since Dec 21st.

Overall life is getting back to as normal as could be after her leaving us.  She should be home soon.  The vet said her urn should arrive within two weeks.  This Friday will be two weeks.  Wow, the time has gone fast.

My treadmill came today.  Being me, I went for the manual one as opposed to powered.  I fully understand why people hate the treadmill.  It took some getting used to.  Plus, it’s so much harder of a workout.  I would typically do two hours or more on an electric one going about 2.5 miles an hour.

With this one, my first attempt was a broken up 10 min of walking over a 45 min period. My second attempt of the day lasted about 20 minutes before I had to stop.  Now, my legs are like jelly trying to walk up stairs.

Not a lot has really happened in my life since my last entry.

The days are getting easier without Medhia.

Tigger went through a phase where she wouldn’t stop meowing and wander around the house.  It started on the 30th of Dec, 2017 and ended on the 1st of January 2018.  I suspect she realized that Medhia was no longer here and was mourning her loss.  They were never close but did spend 15 years together.    Not a day would go by where Medhia would hiss at her sister.

One of the nice things since Medhia left is that I no longer have to worry about her stealing socks, boxers and other stuff out of the laundry baskets.

Tomorrow I’m seeing my Dr and my financial advisor.  Hopefully, I can increase my monthly stipend. Somewhere over the last year I took on the condo payment from my personal account.  That wasn’t suposed to happen, plus I have been living off $2,000 since 2006ish.  Expences keep going up, and my pay stays the same.  It was suposed to be indexed to CPI every year but that just never happened.  Sometimes I feel bad for complaining since they money is set to last me until I’m 94.  But I also need money now to live.  The idea was not to have to work full time again, and if I did work, it would be something I loved.
Tonight my Egyptian friend and I had a chat about how I’ve been single for so long.  My answer was a bit strange he thought.  I pointed out that I’m comfortable being alone with myself and I am not going to compromise.  I’m also not looking, with Medhia sick the last 18 months I wasn’t leaving the house for more than an hour.  I don’t work so meeting new people was difficult.
While I pretty much never have to leave my house, it can get a bit lonely and meeting new people is rare.  When I went back to school, most people were 15 years younger than I was.  The last job I had; VP of College Affairs at DC, I found out after the fact that the VP of Equity had a thing for me.
Oh yeah, I’m not very good at picking up signs of flirting.  😣
Alexa suddenly lost connection to my Bluetooth speaker, and she won’t reconnect.  I can’t figure out why.
I’m loving watching the deluge happen.  Last year over 10,000 pedofiles were arrested, in 2016 it was less than 1,000.
I’ve started playing a bunch of older xbox games on game pass.  I’m still not sure if it’s worth the price.  I’m keeping it for this month, so I have some things to keep me distracted from not having any money at all.  This is a weird feeling.
There is nothing else for me to say to myself other than 2018 is going to be one of the best years of my life.
Our watches are on their way.  We have decided to go with the smart buckle that doesn’t have a screen.  Once we have some capital we can develop the screen we actually want.  This means we will have our hybrid watch nearly a year ahead of schedule.
I’m going to eat and go lay down.  Time to get caught up on the news.

Aloha…

I had the exact same problem… I could access the site… but couldn’t log in… this has happened to me before… but support solved the problem by resetting my password…

This is just part of the beta testing issue… so I just relax… and wait… (smiles)

Getting locked out seems to be a minor glitch @mauijim I sent some more info to the DM; who was very helpful about this, and hopefully it helps solve the issue. While it is frustrating, having OD2 back outweighs any minor glitches.

Thanks @Wildrose_2 I’ve missed your comments. Somehow an entry seems unfinished without one. I really thought we were friends this whole time.

Wow do I have virtual egg all over my avatar’s face.
