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 ...

Walking

 I have always been a walker. Now that I have a high energy dog there is no excuse for not getting out there. And the weather is not an interfering factor here. Early morning and early evening are our preferred times so even when it gets hot we should be okay. We can get quite a long walk going around the neighborhood, greeting neighbors out working in their yards or walking their own dogs. But the landscape changes quickly just beyond the confines of the housing developments. It could be described as natural Florida or as sites of future housing developments. I do prefer the first option. And I really enjoy being out in natural areas so I often opt to head to a nature setting. I would have liked to put a picture here. Unfortunately my iPhone has made a unilateral decision. It will no longer be sending my photos to my computer. Why? I have no idea. However, we may be walking along happily enough -- me listening to the birds or trying to identify wildflowers and other plants while L...

New Furniture

 We went shopping for a new couch. I liked this one, the first store we went to. Of course it would be an impulse to buy the first one so we trekked around to other stores -- something we liked more, a better deal? No surprise that we ended up going back to that first store the next day and purchasing that couch for our living room. Also a matching love seat for the den where we watch TV. Because I had replaced my old love seat with two recliners. We couldn't keep three households worth of furniture after all. Well, my recliner was not big enough to accommodate both Levi and me. Poor boy had to watch TV from his bed on the floor. There! This is much better! Spoiled much? The little tail on the floor belongs to his toy squirrel, Buddy. It's like having a toddler with the need to be picking up toys or risk tripping over them. But his very favorite play thing is that bathmat that can be found anywhere but the bathroom floor.
