I swear I think the “ROOM FROM HELL” is winning. My biggest problem is I really hate to throw anything away… So I sort each pile into different piles…… then I have to go back and sort those pile into other piles… AUGHHHHH!!  WHY!??!  WHY can’t I be one of those people that knows as soon as she touches something the first time whether it needs to be packed away or thrown in the trash, cleaned or donated?  WHY?? can’t I be like that!?!?  Nooooo I have to sort it a million times….. think about it…. sort it again…. UGH UGH UGH!!!   Trash day better hurry up and get here before I change my mind about everything I’ve thrown away this week!!!

That’s basically my relationship with Google right now. So I’m fixing it. 🧹 Lately, I’ve been wandering through my older blog posts like a librarian with a red pen, updating headlines, polishing keywords, and gently reminding Google that yes, I’m still here and still weirdly productive.

Well, I am actually making headway in my (What did we decide to call it? Pig Sty?) room.  But it’s throwing my schedule alllllll off.  It was 3am this morning before I went to bed.  Tthat means I over slept this morning and was almost late for work, where I walked around yawning all day.  I was so tired!! When I got home I sat on the couch, turned on my laptop and promptly fell asleep waiting for it to boot up.  Now it’s after 11 and I’m just now getting to bed.  I’ll tell ya what! I’ll be so glad when this project ‘clean room’ done!!!  (Note to self: learn to throw some things away!! Not a lot… just SOME… ya know… baby steps….)

Pictures and knick knack things with eyeballs always stand out to me. I work for Haug Optometry soooo ya know… ya gotta have an eyeball keychain…. and at Halloween I sport an eyeball ring… eyeball necklace….. you know? funny stuff… but this one, this one is beyond me!!! (Trust me, it takes a lot to be beyond me!!!) Neighborhood watch: Here’s looking at you, Chicago! The City of Big Shoulders is now also the City of Big Peepers, thanks to artist Tony Tasset’s 30-foot-tall eyeball installed in Pritzker Park.

I love a short week!!  How about you?? I’m Dusting Off Old Posts So Google Notices Me Again You know that awkward moment when you run into someone you used to talk to every day and they clearly don’t remember your name?

Updating old posts for SEO is like changing the batteries in your smoke detector. Nothing flashy, but suddenly everything works better. I’m tightening things up, adding clearer headings, improving readability, and sprinkling in relevant links where they actually make sense. Not keyword soup. Not robotic nonsense. Just good content wearing better shoes. Speaking of links, if you’re curious why this matters, Google itself has a surprisingly helpful guide on how search works. It’s worth a peek if you like knowing how the internet’s brain ticks. And while you’re clicking around, this is also me casually pointing you to an internal post or two that needed a glow-up anyway. Old posts deserve love.…
