I started blogging on blogspot, I guess it is still there. I'm not sure what year it was my nephew in law started doing some blogging and invited me to use a wordpress group he had and he set up a domain for me. Since then all my work has been saved to my computer as well as being posted. I am tired of it. I'm down to doing it every so often now. Life goes on, BREAKING NEWS keeps happening, and I am just tired of it. Probably because of my age. I save links to share and then just delete them later. It's a little like the habit of saving the leftovers to eat later and then you throw them out later.

I almost always eat leftovers. Usually for breakfast.

Seriously, I usually cook two meals at once, freezing one for later. The leftovers, the little dabs I put in the fridge with the plan to eat them for lunch, but often that doesn't happen and they get pushed to the back until it is time to pitch them out. We have a mulch pile, it eats well.

I had been to typepad earlier this summer, and saw the warning, so I took the time to copy/paste everything from there into a word doc on my PC. Then I deleted all my stuff, rather than waiting for/trusting them to purge it.

Went back to Word a day or so later, to read something I had written 20 years ago, and it had a great big "MORE" button at the bottom of it. I'd missed that when I was copy/pasting, so while I saved my work, I didn't save all of it. Oops.

I am with you on the Bush and Iraqi freedom. So much was hidden from us. But Crooks be Crooks. And color me hoodwinked! The News is breaking so fast every day, for sure. I have to limit my screen time, lest my ever aging brain get mushy. Keep sharing your thoughts.
