Mapping The South Tama Rec Trail

I’m using https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Track-drawing_websites and https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Geojson.io with my South Tama Rec Trial Tracks GPX file to create a nice map for Facebook.

Starting Monjauro All Over Again... One Last Time

So, back in December my health insurance provider denied my refill prescription for Monjauro injections. I missed a week of injections after 3 months without a miss. My doctor appealed the decision… couple weeks later “DENIED”. They appealed again… two more weeks “DENIED”. Then the very next day I get a message essentially saying “Oops, you’re approved”. So almost 7 weeks later I now get to start again from square one.

This is my FOURTH time on such a regimen, the first 3 were all terminated by insurance or supply problems.

If this round gets terminated I will be terminating something in return.

Life Of Pi

They really should have booked this show for March 14.

Café At The Meadows Before The Show

Thought we would give this place a try. So far seems pretty nice and quick.

Add Results Highlighting To Pagefind Search

Just posting a self-reminder to implement https://pagefind.app/docs/highlighting/ as soon as possible.

Adding Search To A Static Jekyll Site Using Pagefind

Eureka! Found this very interesting and welcome post… # Adding search to a static Jekyll site using pagefind. Time to shore up my “1926” project so I can give it a try there.

Genealogy With NPM And Pagefind

It’s long overdue but this evening I managed to re-spin my the-Helge-Project genealogy website by adding NPM and Pagefind. Update: The result IS now available at https://tree.mcfate.family or the old site at https://helge.mcfate.family.

It should behave just like before with one BIG exception… the SEARCH bar near the top of the page.

Last night I was doing some arm-chair research for my grandmother’s 1926 travel journal and started wondering who the family would find when moving to Long Beach, CA. I quickly lamented that my https://helge.mcfate.family site had no “search” feature of any kind… How was I going to find that Long Beach connection?

Well, now that’s a piece of cake. Try it for yourself…

Stopped For Lunch At The Flc Event

Mackenzie’s appointment was quick and all good news so we managed to get away for lunch.

Just Arrived At UIHC Neurology

The stupidity has already begun. There are just a couple EV charging stations here in the ramps, specifically in ramp three, but that ramp is marked as “full” even though I can see two open plug-in spaces. Am I allowed to go park there? No, because the ramp is “full”. The University of Iowa traffic “control” never fails to disappoint, they consistently STUPID.

Helping Clear Snow At The Farm

My mother-in-law needed a little assistance, getting her electric snowblower going. Mission accomplished, now back to work.
