It happened yesterday as I uploaded photographs for Cee’s Photo Challenge, the photos I was attempting to post became red-rimmed, and a dialog box informed me:
Looks like you have used 3.0 GB of your 3.0 GB upload limit. ~ WordPress Media Library
I knew I was close to reaching the limit, but now it is thrust upon me, and today I need to find some solutions and continue deleting posts and photos from past years. In the meantime, I thought as I search through the blog archives I would repost a couple of Autumn ideas that might be buried there.
Wish me luck as I slog through years of posts. I like the word slog, it almost has the ring of onomatopoeia to it. When I say or think of slog I imagine myself in a stinky swamp, shoes sticking in the muck, every step forward accentuated with a schlurping pop as I pull my feet out of soft, wet earth. “Onward!” I say, I won’t be stopped by a little blog housecleaning. To all my blogging friends…have the happiest of days.
That’s EXACTLY what slogging would sound like! Great description. Happy blog housekeeping. My poor blog has been so neglected lately, I should probably do a bit of slogging myself. 🙂

I’ll check in every now and then to see if you have written anything new. 🙂 I take breaks from it now and then…I run into dry periods and haven’t a clue what to write.

It’s not fun, but I like the convenience of having the media library for the photographs rather than using another storage option. I’m working my way through…I delete a bit and add a bit and so on. Thanks for the comment!

I suppose that may happen to me eventually

I could use another photo storage such as the Cloud or Flickr, but it is so convenient to be able to work right from the WordPress Dashboard when I post. I pay to keep ads off my page, so I’m not sure if I’m willing to bump up that price to include more storage.
