I love a good foursome!
Maybe I phrased that badly.
Today was the first day that I had 4 of my posts indexed by Google within 2 weeks. Probably not a big thing for a lot of people, but I was pretty chuffed
My latest post is about AI writing tools that can make your life easier, so let's see how long it takes to get indexed for that. And this is for my 2nd website that has only been up for 2 months. Maybe a bit longer...1 week. Arrgghh, old age.
It is about how we should use the tools at hand to free up our time for the good things.
In the words of Kurt Vonnegut.
Kurt Vonnegut tells his wife he's going out to buy an envelope:
“Oh, she says, well, you're not a poor man. You know, why don't you go online and buy a hundred envelopes and put them in the closet? And so I pretend not to hear her. And go out to get an envelope because I'm going to have a hell of a good time in the process of buying one envelope.
I meet a lot of people. And see some great looking babies. And a fire engine goes by. And I give them the thumbs up. And I'll ask a woman what kind of dog that is. And, and I don't know. The moral of the story is - we're here on Earth to fart around.
And, of course, the computers will do us out of that. And what the computer people don't realize, or they don't care, is we're dancing animals. You know, we love to move around. And it's like we're not supposed to dance at all anymore."
We should be having fun, not just hunched over a computer. Some say time is money, I disagree. It is much more precious than that.
So use these tools and free up your time to be with those you love.
Stephen
Hugs to all.

I'm disappointed Stephoi ... from your heading, I thought your article was going to be about golf! LOL.
I do some of it standing up ... writing I mean ... coz it's good exercise to be standing. That's almost dancing ...

Time is a tool to use wisely and money is energy to exchange with others. Good post Stephen.
It is easy to get carried away with working when you love what you do, I am often guilty of that myself at times.Balance is important.

Good morning Stephen,
I hope you are doing well, thank you for your blog post.
It's great that you're blog posts have been indexed, the more we write the quicker our posts will be indexed. I believe that it's good to celebrate achievements, these achievements help us to go to the next level!
On another note, I see that you are an English teacher, maybe you can help. Although I write regularly and English is very much my native language, I still feel that I don't know the basics! Things like writing in the past tense, present tense et cetera. I don't know about nouns, adjectives and verbs et cetera!
I recently purchased "Basic English Grammar For Dummies", it looks like a good book, however, I do need to read it! Hopefully, as winter comes, I will have more time as my off-line business quietens down.
Have a great day.
Roy
Another good online tool is Quillbot. It is free and downloadable. It helps with English.
Stephen
Thank you, Stephen, your advice is very much appreciated.
Out of interest, I am currently using the paid version of Grammarly and the free version of Wordtune. Do you know if Quillbot can be used alongside Grammarly and Wordtune or would they clash?
Roy
No they don’t clash. I have installed Quillbot as a sidebar and it is a great tool to use in conjunction with Grammarly. I do not use word tune so I can’t answer on that one. I use the free version of Quillbot, some limitations. But still ok. Let me know if you like it, or need any questions answered.
Stephen
Thank you, Stephen, that's much appreciated, I will take a look, right now.
I've just had a quick look, it seems similar to Wordtune, but looking quickly, it looks better! I only have the free version of Wordtune, so I may disable Wordtune and try Quillbot and see what happens! There may well be some questions!
I appreciate your help, thank you.
Roy
Question away, happy to help.
Stephen
Thank you and much appreciated.
