Bureaucracy

11 letter word,

Bureaucracy (/bjʊəˈrɒkrəsi/; bure-OK-rə-see) is a system of organization where laws or regulatory authority are implemented by civil servants, non-elected officials. Historically, a bureaucracy was a government administration managed by departments staffed with non-elected officials.

What that doesn’t say is that it can be a nightmare! I sent in a letter to the government in January which was confirmed as the letter was tracked. I didn’t hear anything back so I rang them today only to find out I should have registered my query over the phone when I sent in the letter. There was nothing about that on the form. I asked why and the man at the other end said he didn’t know why, but that it is a problem! Thank goodness I rang up and registered today, only THREE WEEKS LATE. Argh!

In better news

My leg, that was wrapped up like this several weeks ago, is finally healed! Yippee! No more waiting for it to be re-dressed. No more washing it carefully. I can have a long shower (in the daytime when the bathroom isn’t freezing). I can start going for walks again. Probably in the rain. It’ll be small steps to avoid knocking it, but, Yippee!

Stats have changed?

What is happening here? My stats pages have changed. Perhaps they have tried to simplify them but now you are directly sent to the insights page and then you can choose whether you see stats for days, weeks, months and years. But it’s not the same. The bar charts look different and I’m not sure how they relate to the old ones.

I wish I knew where we get information from to tell us what is happening  Is there a page which you can look at to tell you what is coming up at WordPress?

It seems to happen everywhere. Facebook is constantly tweaked as is Instagram. You just have to try and pick up what is going on. I don’t think things should stay the same but it would be handy to have some information before hand.
