When you’re not okay

19 October 2019 by kristarella Leave a Comment

I have spoken about depression and anxiety before. I have made some significant strides lately in thinking more positively, and dealing with many of the symptoms I experience, but occasionally things are overwhelming and I just have no idea what to do about it. I know others can feel the same way; it’s why “mindfulness” […]

EPS files have their uses, for sure, but they seem to be a standard output of Adobe Illustrator, which is a bit sad, because Inkscape (the open source vector editor I use) can’t open them (without some hassle with ghostscripts or something).

Page specific headers in Thesis

28 August 2009 by kristarella

I’ve done several posts about Thesis headers before: Thesis full-width headers, Full-width headers in Thesis 1.5 and CSS Custom Headers. All of those lead you in the same general direction: a single custom header for your blog. I recently got asked for step-by-step instructions on how to specify different headers on specific pages.

I don't always feel the need for a new notebook in I don't always feel the need for a new notebook in the new year, but I did this year. I'm not really kissing 2020 goodbye and thinking 2021 will be better; I suspect there are plenty more curve balls coming our way, but I am hopeful that my mindset for the year will be strong and resilient.
