I have noticed several times in the past week or so that when I write a comment and hit Publish, it never shows up. In one case I wrote my comment and published it twice but it didn't ever appear. I'm mentioning this because I think others are experiencing similar happenings with Blogger.
I don't have a clue what is happening, but nothing on my computer is working perfectly lately. I get strange screens that appear, asking me to enter a "guest code"; I'm having to restart the computer several times a day, and of course, my latest experience of someone using my email address.
When I look at the Stats on the Blogger page and click on Audience, I see that I am being viewed by people in countries that I question are valid views of my blog. I don't know of anyone in China, India, Russia, etc., who would be interested in my blog.
When I get back to California I plan to take my laptop to the Apple store and have them look at it and make sure there is no malware on it, and I guess it's time I get a little more diligent about security. It takes a lot of the fun out of using a computer, though, when you have to keep so many passwords and deal with tighter security.
Speaking of when I get back, I wonder if I can continue going without TV. I can't figure out the controls on the TV here so I just don't bother watching it. One month without TV and I haven't missed it a bit! The flip side of that is I probably spend more time on the computer. I need a dog!

I have been told that there is now a "Prove you're not a robot" requirement on my blog. I hate those things, for one thing I can't very easily read those numbers, and because I don't have a lot of problems with robots! I checked...
- I Appreciate The Comments And Suggestions
I am trying to consider all angles, and appreciate the input I'm receiving. This morning I woke up and said, "No, no, no! You are too old to be so uncomfortable when you bought a big tent so's you'd be comfortable." As Billy...

At about 3:30 this afternoon if felt warm enough to shed my flannel pj's and don shorts and a t-shirt. It is in the upper 70's but still feels cool in the house. Every now and then I feel guilty for doing nothing today but reading...

Thanks to all who have responded to my dilemma with blogging. I can only think it is something to do with my computer and the way it is set up - Blogger doesn't work correctly when I use Firefox, but it does when I use Safari. I'm...

I think I will drop out for a while - maybe just a few days - but until I can get a better attitude about the "new" blogger interface. I just started to write a blog and post a picture of my new computer. The picture came up fast when...
