Whew, my 2008 photo galleries and blogs are DONE!

The PolyBlog
February 25 2024

That took longer than expected, particularly as most of 2008 was already pre-sorted and uploaded. I wrote many blog posts about the wedding year, realized that I had never finished the daily recaps of the honeymoon, and fixed some confusing organization for some of the extra photos.

Let’s start with the regular photos of the year…visits to Ottawa, baby showers, births, trips for work, and weddings were the big themes for the year. I have 16 separate albums, with 13 before the big wedding push and 3 afterwards. Of the 599 photos, I uploaded 165 of them, which equates to 28%, just under a third.

Then all hell broke loose for photos. Rather than trying to deal with ONE BIG album for the wedding and honeymoon, I have them broken into smaller groupings. 41 albums in fact. A little anal? Sure. But I feel like I kind of had to be a bit anal to deal with the volume.

Overall? There are 5629 photos between the wedding and honeymoon. Of those, I uploaded 1375 as keepers (about 24%).

For the year:

  • 57 albums
  • 1540 active photos uploaded (25% of the total)
  • 4688 extra photos archived
  • 6228 photos in total for the year

And some 28 blog posts with more details and excerpts from the year! Whew. Glad to be done. Except 2009 won’t be a lot easier … it’s the year Jacob was born and we became paparazzi parents!

  • Book clubs 2026-05: May the rigour be with you (it wasn’t with me)May 22, 2026
    Ah, April showers have brought us May books. Wait, that’s not the right saying. I’ll get back to you on that. Remember last month when I said I was going to show rigour? Well, that didn’t happen. With the larger intake base, I have 119 entries for consideration this month. Of which, I only said … Continue reading →
  • Cleaning up book club lists for January to AprilMay 21, 2026
    In my last post, I noted that I’m monitoring 40+ book clubs for “new to me” titles to consider putting on my TBR pile. There is an inherent challenge that I’m saying yes or maybe to between 15-20% of the titles, which is WAY MORE BOOKS THAN I CAN READ. I’ll have to trim those … Continue reading →
  • Book clubs — Missed books in 2025May 21, 2026
    I mentioned earlier that I have a list of 40+ book clubs that I’m monitoring for “new to me” books to consider for my To Be Read (TBR) pile. I went through all of 2025, made a list of ones that interested me, and posted it. But it wasn’t the best of lists. I didn’t … Continue reading →
  • Leveling up: Memes, postcards and flashcardsMay 13, 2026
    So, I have two giant premises working against me here: Yet, every guru on anything web-related has said the same thing for the last fifteen years — that blogs and posts are only successful with eye candy. I’ve played with the formats of posts over the years in certain categories, trying to get them to … Continue reading →
  • Leveling up: Retirement contentMay 6, 2026
    As I mentioned yesterday, I’m doing a “content” review of my websites to see if there are areas I should be expanding or contracting, comparing them to other blogs and posts that are out there. I would like to do more on retirement as I transition out of the public service, but I am always … Continue reading →
