One Year Ago

One year ago we were packing for a two week trip to Scotland.

The fall colors were just beginning there.

By going then we missed granddaughter L's 1st birthday.  This year we are packing for New Hampshire and will be there to celebrate with L as she turns 2.

Don't know if the fall colors will be as vibrant as when we were there at this time before.

But being with L (on the left below) as she celebrates will be well worth it.

And an update on my Blogger issues: unresolved.  What this means is that I can view all the blogs I have in the past but only a very few are set up that let me comment through my google account.  Most are not recognizing that I am signed in. The home page of my own blog does not recognize that either.

Blogger Sign in Issues Continue

Many of you have commented that you stay signed in to blogger all the time.  That was the case with me too.  In the last couple of months I'd discovered I wasn't signed in because my comments on your blogs wouldn't take.  The problem has only been getting worse.

In returning to my blog this is what I'd see in top right corner.

So I click on sign in and it takes me to this page.  I can post, no problem.

I click on view blog and get this again.

This means I can't edit portions of my blog from that page, like adding to my book list.

When I go to some of your blogs it shows that I'm not signed in and I can't comment.

If I comment on my blog it shows I'm signed in.  Some of you have this same set up and I can comment.

I'm so totally frustrated!

Blogger issues

For some reason, Blogger does not show me as signed in when I'm looking at my blog

or anyone else's.  

I click on sign in and it takes me to the posting page and shows me signed in.

It won't let me comment on other blogs without signing in.

Anyone else experiencing this problem?  

Hmm ... just realized if you are you can't comment here either.

I'll have to do some more research.  My first search didn't solve the issue.

postscript:
by commenting on my own blog it's showing me as signed in on my blog.  Now to see if I can comment on other blogs.

Well, lost the sign in again!

Frustrated!

Will You Vote In Mid-term Elections?

Our country is facing an important decision point in democracy.

Whether you are a Democrat, Republican, or unaffiliated you will agree that our elected officials, and government employees should be held accountable for their actions when they are breaking the law. At present that is not happening especially in Congress where oversight responsibilities lie.

We must elect a Congress that will examine the misdeeds of the present administration.

Are you registered to vote?

Go here and take the pledge to vote in November.

Spread the word.

Joe Scarborough, former Republican Congressman, said this in recent editorial:

The question for voters this fall is whether their country will move beyond this troubled chapter in history or whether they will continue supporting a politician who has done more damage to the dream of America than any foreign adversary ever could.

Quoted from this editorial.

One last thing if you doubt the need to vote, read this Editorial:

The Most Important Thing You Will Do All Year.
