The beauty of soap bubbles

Saw this flower in the parking lot, so had to take a video.

Bidu Sayão is one of Mom's favorite singers. And this is such a beautiful piece.

And *this* is why I'm spending so much time on the proper Order of Operations on the Testing WordPress WooCommerce site - before applying optimizations to the Live site: What's the Problem? WooCommerce’s High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) relies on foreign keys, which only work with InnoDB table format, *not* MyISAM. This causes several critical issues if MyISAM tables remain in use: ❌ MyISAM does not support foreign key constraints. ⚠️ WooCommerce assumes InnoDB for HPOS tables like wp_wc_order_stats and wp_wc_orders. 🔗 Relational operations (joins, cascades, constraints) will behave unpredictably or silently fail under MyISAM. 🧩 WooCommerce background processes (order stats rebuilds, HPOS migration syncs) may: - Time out, - Misreport success, - Or silently fail. 🛠️ Bottom line: Convert all relevant tables to InnoDB *before* enabling or syncing HPOS.

@primal Thanks for the Zaps ⚡️

WordPress WooCommerce Testing site Optimizing & troubleshooting is like cruising along at highway speed for 2 hours - and covering 130 miles. Then stop-and-go zig-zagging through a construction zone for the next 2 hours - covering 10 miles.

First Dad joke since Dad died five and a half weeks ago. *Lance, me, and step-Mom are discussing wall colors* Lance: The color is a bit more mustard than I expected. Me: Dad would have enjoyed a mustard for sure. Kitty: Haha, on his sandwich! 🥪

Such a lovely aria! Bidu Sayão sings La Sonnambula by Bellini ''Ah, non credea mirarti'' 1945

There is no tomorrow; no next time. There is only the last time you said "I love you" to someone you wanted to hear it.

Death is like an evaporated lake. An empty shape of a basin once filled with ecosystems and water lapping against the shore. Barren beaches where once footprints pressed into the wet sand. An empty mold once filled with wind-swept-waters and ferry-crossings. Now an echo of a once-beating heart, the last of the water has lifted to the skies. Rest in peace, Dad 💛 March 27, 2025
