Sunday Evening Update

When I mentioned that you might notice that my blog has a crisper look, I guess I was wrong. No one noticed, so I guess I will have to point out the differences.

Previously, the text often ran into the sidebar on the right. Plus, the links and archives had the lines crammed together and the text was too small. It was very messy. The new blog template has fixed all of those items.

I don't know why I bother. You people wouldn't care if my blog was a pigsty. No one appreciates how hard I try. Wait, that was my sainted mother channeling through me.

In breaking news that matters, Lacey the Dog has learned to use the dog door. I took off the flap for a few days so that she would get the idea that she could go in and out. When I put it on today, she went through like she had been doing it her whole life. I love it when one of my schemes works out. Kudos to the mutt.

















Things in this blog represented to be fact, may or may not actually be true. The writer is frequently wrong, sometimes just full of it, but always judgmental and cranky

Stop whining Merle!! I had noticed the change in your blog - even before you wrote the post asking had we noticed. And I cannot tell you how pleased I am, because now I can stop whining to myself when I check your latest post.For quite some time I have refrained from whining directly to you about how I could often not read to the bottom of a post and the worst thing of all - I couldn't comment!! That last bit might prompt you to go back to the old style of blog.....
Just kidding (I hope).
Only four days to go, have they taken up the collection at work for your farewell gift yet?

Well, Merle, you have to give us TIME to notice! :)

Seriously, I dig the redesign, and the chimp. Somehow I doubt that the copyright lawyers will track you down over that one. (Although these days, who knows?)

Hooray for Lacey! I knew she'd figure it out eventually.

I did notice! I just didn't say so! And... I cannot get the link for your son's blog to work. Is it you or is it me?

I figured it out. It is you... when you click on the link there are two http's.

WOW! I came into your blog this morning and I BARELY recognized the place! It looks so much more clean and shiny and CRISPIER and the text has stopped running around and bashing itself into the sidebar. I am just grooving on the new larger type. I don't have to wear my reading glasses to read your blog. It is all so wonderful.

How small does a person have to be to squeeze thru the dog door?

It's true what anonymous says about widgetmate. Their cool new widgets are easy to add and awesome. Thanks, anonymous!
