When Blogger Messes With Your World



Dear friends I am so Happy you are with me today.
 But
 I have to apologize because this is a vent post
But 
I Choose Happy

And I am going to share how I write my posts 
After I vent
The vent . . . 
Back the end of May I think Blogger announced the New Blogger.  You didn't have to convert right then and so I didn't.  I didn't have time to deal with changes and learning all the New stuff.
Fast forward.  Now you have to.
The problem is that at this moment I think that my ancient computer can not adapt to the changes.  I sent in a 'Help' ticket but since I have checked my phone and now the Tablet I pretty much think the problem is the computer because they are both working fine with the new Blogger.

And so I am just 
thinking of the words
Sick
Mad 
Frustrated
Still Mad
But
I Choose Happy


How  I have been writing my blog posts . . . 
I move from the computer. To my phone. To the Tablet.
In order of preference
I like the computer best and use it primarily
Except
It is old from 2000 I think and has a battery problem I think.  It stays plugged in and even though it is a laptop
I can not move it.  But still it works fine even tough sometimes the letter K sticks which makes it hard when you write about books.  Yes it is fine and fills my needs and purposes 
Until
It 'Goes to sleep', 'Shuts down', 'Takes a nap' you get my drift don't you?  It's a random thing.  There are times it will stay on 36 hours straight.  Then other times I am able to check email and make sure my Book posts are correct and then it's done.

That is when I go to my phone.  I actually use it for most of my pictures.  I will pre-write my post on the computer and leave room for the pictures.  Then I add photo's I have taken on my phone or downloaded to my posts.
I could write my entire post on my phone and somedays like on Fridays when I am starting Happy Homemaker that posts on Saturday I can start the prompts and get some pictures started.  But I can't write the entire post because Type/Text does not work on my phone.   My phone is not quite a year old. tomorrow I am going to the server and see if they can fix it.  I've tried several times myself....I digress.  
And so when the computer is on vacation or Blogger messes with my world I am stuck with the Tablet that is very frustrating.  I have no idea it's issues! Too many to count. 
So I would say
I am device challenged
But 
I Choose Happy


And I make it work
And hopefully I will get a Foodie Friday post up before 
Saturday!
Are you device challenged.
And here's my 
Bigger 
?
Did Blogger mess up your world?

Your comment equals a Hug!

I am linking at my favorite parties because I need a Hug!
Hostesses your parties are linked at the bottom or on previous posts.  I have to figure out how to make all this work with 'the New World Order' Hello 2020.

Hang in there Sherry! Things will get better! And yes, Blogger has been messing with us. I discovered while trying to switch to the new Blogger format that if you want to include an InLinkz link up - the code to actually link up didn't work. So I sent Blogger a "help me" with screenshots, etc. included about the inlinkz not working in the new format. And I got no response, nothing, zip, nada! So I went on the InLinkz site and actually got someone to respond. I explained what I was going through with the new Blogger format and the person there said she would get back with me. It took about a week before I heard from her and she actually fixed the problem. Yay! Now I feel comfortable using the new format. But boo to Blogger for not giving a . . . .!

I'm finally getting use to the new blogger but I can't figure out to stop with the double spacing! Being frustrated is NOT fun.
