I am having major Blogger issues. I can compose text only posts, no photos, no comments. I have awards to answer and pictures to share but I have been hog tied.
I thought it was late night thing, I read several blogs yet could not comment. I came back EARLY this morning and still the problem has not corrected its self.
I am here and have been reading but my comments at the moment are not for sharing. Mary you will just have to wait for my answers. I'm working at correcting this situation but I fear blogger has other ideas.
Be back when things have corrected their self. I hope you understand and will bear with me in this time of technical difficulty. :)
We all loved "Back to the Future," didn't we? All those cool futuristic gadgets, cars that ran on trash, just a world of imagination, not real. Uh uh! Sometimes things actually do come true.
Okay I was not going to do a post today but this young lady just inspired me! You all know how I love my Grandmother, you know she is 91 and has trouble with so many things we take for granted, just a fact of getting old. I am happy to report there is someone else who feels the same. Except she did something.
The inventor of these laces has a grandmother whom suffers from Parkinson Disease and has trouble tying her shoes, so in steps a grand daughter. I see this as a real marvel for the elderly.
Often they are forced to wear ugly Velcro shoes or must wait until someone helps them just put shoes on. The fact that they are elderly often means they cannot tie things properly and are susceptible to tripping.
I just wanted to share this video, so enjoy. Now I have to figure out how to get my grandmother to wear these magic shoes. I can hear her now, "those are too flashy and what other colors do they come in?" :D
I like the light on the top also. Sort of a shoe night light. Can you imagine all these 90+ people running around in these.....I can!
Peace....
I wanted to put a post out there for all who may be trying to follow this blog. It would seem Google Feedburner is having some real issues and I fear that you may not be receiving what you signed up for.
Apparently if you are using AOL you have suddenly stopped receiving posts, AOL does not want to play with Google. If you are following this blog through a reader for some weird reason you simply get a screen that sits blank trying to load. I fear this problem is also the reason for delay in facebook postings.
I am a Blogger not a computer expert but I will do my best to figure this situation out. I ask that you be patient and should probably visit the actual blog site until Google gets its act together.
Please continue to read "Trying To Get Over The Rainbow," and if you have experienced any problem with this blog by all means LEAVE a COMMENT.
Google Analytics tells me there are a large amount of you women out there that are: A) middle aged, B) still wondering what to wear and C) realizing I have no idea, and then clicking on (See Womens Clothing). Well, I have to ask, “Why are you so obsessed with your attire?” “Will you allow me to help with this search?”
Since you have landed here because you entered the search parameters “middle-aged” and “clothing.” I have to assume you know what you are looking for or do you? What exactly are you hoping to find searching with those parameters anyway?
Are you looking for middle-aged or clothing? Because I can honestly tell you the web does not recognize the two parameters as being related to each other. Middle-aged gives you one set of possible results, while clothing gives you an entirely different set of possibilities and only one possibility of the two combined. I think more search parameters need to be entered.
Who is it exactly that design the electrical connections to all our gadgets? I swear I think they have some warped sense of humor that requires them to sit in some dark cubicle somewhere thinking, “how many awkward positions will it require to get to this connected?”
I started the day with my PC having its monthly hissy fit and requiring me to give it some TLC before it would even look at me. I proceeded with the usual sweet talk and patting (kicking) its engine but that got me nowhere. Oh no; it wanted me to open its case, pull a card, stand on my head and all the while keeping my foot in the blue circle before it would boot up. Thankfully, I live with someone who’s nickname is Twister so I was not that out of practice. But that was just this beginning.
Recently my friend and I were walking down the street on our way to a parking garage when we noticed 3 men walking straight for us. As we continued on it became apparent we would have to get off the sidewalk and out of the men's way, as they passed my friend commented, "get out of the way of the gentlemen." This is simple little courtesy that I know some would argue the women's movement has largely affected. Yet the trend I am noticing is a far more disturbing movement toward the simple minded individual.
All to often I am noticing that the acts of common decency are far and few between. We have begun to live our technological lives in a bubble and so often never lift up our heads from the text keypad to notice what is right in front of us. We have reached a point where communication through a small rectangular box is our interaction with our fellow man and maybe this is our problem.
