I went into PANIC MODE over that one. I use them for ALL my collages...and my other headers. Just sick about it....BUT...little mizz DebbieDoo told me about a site (can't think of the name right now) that may be just about as good as Picnik..thought I'd play around with it a bit tonight and see.<br /><br />For the last two weeks, Mr. Sweet and I have just "forgotten" grand's basketball games.

Don't ask.... it involves painful leg cramps. I'm off to read Jill's page in a moment but I wanted to say that I'm totally addicted to Downton Abbey.

The problem is that I'm left hanging till the next batch comes out.Suzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06475380451527801666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-55350761512934696472012-01-22T20:44:15.060-05:002012-01-22T20:44:15.060-05:00duh!

It seems there are changes to commenting and things on the sidebar and I am clueless to it all. <br />I had thought I'd like to see War Horse, but now think I can wait for it to hit Redbox.<br />I'm intrigued to see what this video at Jill's is all about.

Next morning I had 100 email comments in my box! Now why would I want to read all those comments to her? I thought i had suddenly become very popular, lol, but what a pain to delete all those comments!<br /><br />Have a good Sunday!Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323768335143979148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4152193618785368659.post-34258766819071165262012-01-21T22:48:56.064-05:002012-01-21T22:48:56.064-05:00So today my "vist and chat over a cup of tea&...So today my "vist and chat over a cup of tea" is occuring rather late...lots of items on the to-do list today! I am so glad that you returned to the old interface, so that I can connect with you. The interactive comments concept is appealing...but white screens are not. Hopefully, blogger will work the bugs out. <br /> <br />Hope you had a lovely day with your grandboy! We will see our local five tomorrow...can't wait! <br /><br />And yes, the TED video was fascinating. I always took those mysterious little words at face value.

You're probably wondering where my generous spirit is this morning. I still have it. And I want to have the ability to decide when and where to apply my generous spirit. I guess these geeks have concluded that the ends justify the means. <br /><br />I am really glad that Blogger vastly improved their spam filter so that I don't have to use the word verification anymore for folks to post comments. I was getting spammed almost daily beforehand. Since then, I haven't gotten a single one. I wish everyone would get rid of that feature on their blogs. <br /><br />Hmmm, I guess I better go back to the pop-up window if you say that there are still too many bugs with the one where you can do replies.
