Glitches Galore

 Is it just me or is the "new and improved" blogger really glitchy?

I guess we hang on for a bumpy ride?

My reading list is not suddenly showing the blogs I read. I have a fine list of things written written six years ago.

Making comments can be a gamble.

If I mark a comment as spam, it gets published anyway.

I don't mind change unless it is a giant step backwards and that is what this appears to be.

Why, yes, yes I have.

    I just dealt with all of my photos coming in in a backwards order, and the text size changing on me. I still have not figured out the right way to delete a photo, and if I try to change position of a photo it refuses to be centered. Yeah, new and improved. Right.:-/

    I'm with you and Linda, this improved blogger isn't improved at all. I've had the same issues with photos and the text sizes changing for no apparent reason. And yet, the one thing that annoys me the most is the redirect page...I wouldn't have clicked on the post if I didn't want to read it!

    I don't have that problem with WordPress.

    I had that spam thing happen too. Guess we have to just delete them right off. Sheesh. I have noticed that posts I have all ready commented on in the morning show up later in the day as new posts but there is my comment. And I really hate the redirect notice which you sometimes have to hit twice to get the post you are looking for. Lordy do I miss Legacy.

    Such a pain in the arse! I agree with Linda, as well. Reverse order...

    I have always had problems 'positioning' photos on blogger. With the new blogger I find that I can't add the labels until after I publish...

      I did, Gigi, but I didn't publish comments until today because I was having cataract surgery. ;)

    I miss the old blogger interface too, this one is difficult and still some things aren't working correctly.

    Dear Olga and Friends, funny, i have yet to read even one comment where a person actually likes the new format. Everyone thinks it's a pain - me included.

    It took a bit of doing, but I’m sort of getting used to this new blogger. I upload my photos one at a time, so I haven’t had a problem with photos being out of order. I know others have been frustrated though. I don’t know if this new interface is an improvement though.

I appreciate readers' comments so much. You don't even always have to agree with me.

It's TIme

 It's been a while since I have posted anything and even my reading your posts is falling by the wayside. I am in Florida now. I have a yard where little attention was spent on landscaping for the past years so I am slowly and (somewhat) methodically addressing that. I also volunteer to work at the pollinator garden and the edible garden I helped install at the UU grounds and I took over the volunteer job of cleaning out the overgrown community garden by my neighborhood mailboxes. The neighbor who was doing that got sick and could no longer attend to it. It's a bigger job than I'd thought at first -- not only overgrown with weeds, but the plants that are wanted there are in life and death competition for each others' spaces. And two walks a day, morning and evening, so Levi can keep up with addiction to canine social media and a daily rousing came of stick or ball midday take up another chunk of my time. I have a weekly meditation group that I co-facilitate, and my own ...

Life Goes On

There is nothing like a visit from the grand children to remind one that life goes on.  I spent Friday night at my daughter's and then brought the kids back home with me.  I did not get to see so much of them this past summer and it was a birthday gift to my daughter (who just turned 40!) to have a couple of days to herself. She probably spent them in her son's room playing Lego StarWars.  Dane tried to teach me how to play this video game--a hopeless task if ever there was one.  "Concentrate, Grandma!  You have to concentrate!"  I do have a hard time with sustained concentration lately, but in this case I had no clue what it was that needed concentration.  He finally took the controls away from me (thank-you!). It's amazing how long he can amuse himself at my house being out side on a scooter or helping me in the yard, especially if it involves a hose.  Inside, they both sit and draw or craft for hours.  Just before bed, Dane did say, "N...

Eggplant

Mike and I considered ourselves soul mates, but we definitely were not culinary mates.  Mike liked what he liked and disliked what he disliked and he never changed his mind about things like that.  He did not eat mayonnaise.  He did not eat tomato sauce.  He did not eat cooked vegetables except for corn, peas and green beans.  He did not eat onions cooked or otherwise.  He did not eat casseroles ever since they were a combination of things he didn't eat anyway. I did not like mushrooms as a kid and eggplant just made me gag, but my tastes changed,  Foods I found disgusting as a child are now among my favorites--mushrooms, eggplant, avocados, asparagus, eggs, spinach, brussel sprouts, herbs and spices. I will admit that I never developed a taste for liver (nor do I want to). I made this Moussakka a while ago and ate it every day for a week.  I froze half of it but ended up thawing it out right away. It consists of sliced eggplant layered...
