I receive notifications of new blog comments by email, so I clicked on the link in the email and my blog came up, complete with all the features and previous comments. The last time I tried this, the blog came up but it was complete--there were some features missing.<br /><br />Now whether I'll be able to get this comment posted is another story.<br /><br />--LindaRakshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280365011937595321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7088965984326304571.post-27232027869361141032011-12-17T15:42:07.156-08:002011-12-17T15:42:07.156-08:00Huzzah!

About synchronicity, I have never been able to decide if it's something that "happens" to us or something we create on some level. I tend to believe it's both at the same time--that we both discover AND create it simultaneously.<br /><br />I posted the Clarissa Estes essay as much to inspire myself as anyone else. I may be "seaworthy" as she says (at least I hope so), but damn...it's hard to navigate in these times!<br /><br />--LindaRakshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280365011937595321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7088965984326304571.post-13705850422212773392011-12-17T06:28:07.354-08:002011-12-17T06:28:07.354-08:00This reminds me that with everything I learn - we ...This reminds me that with everything I learn - we all chose this time to be here.

I'm currently using IE 9.6, which is linked to my AOL account. Even the standalone version I use sometimes is "provided by AOL." Is there a newer version than IE 9.6? For the past week or so I've been using only Google Chrome to access Blogger because I can't get IE to work with it at all any more, not even to access my dashboard. I hated it at first becausse I couldn't locate ANYTHING! Now that I figured out where the copy and paste commands are and how to bookmark things it isn't so bad. I'm finally getting used to it, but then I really don't have a choice right now.<br /><br />The main reason I'm posting this now is to let you know your blog crashed my Google Chrome browser twice--once last night and once earlier today. I had to send an error report to Microsoft both times. Didn't you say it was "grandfathered in" to Blogger from some other format? I've noticed since I started using this Google Chrome browser that the format on your blog is completely different from any of the other blogs I follow here. For one thing, I can't access my dashboard from your blog like I can with the others. Is there anything you can do about that? I'm going to copy and paste this in the other place to make sure you see it.<br /><br />--LindaRakshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280365011937595321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7088965984326304571.post-68709761435822834722011-12-06T18:27:39.910-08:002011-12-06T18:27:39.910-08:00This response is delayed because my computer cease...This response is delayed because my computer ceased to function. I found the problem, after arduous effort, and worked around it, but I fear its working days are numbered. It is a Hewlett-Packard, only two years old. I'll not buy another H-P; Dells give better service.<br /><br />It may help to install the latest version of Internet Explorer. I am using it for this comment and I really like it better than the maze called Google's Chrome.Wugohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03406480515896743062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7088965984326304571.post-30318643944909794962011-12-03T19:21:06.303-08:002011-12-03T19:21:06.303-08:00That doesn't seem to be my problem, Sean.

In fact, it created a whole new set of problems because I couldn't figure out how to get it work with my AOL account. I had to get a new Google email address, and all of my Blogger information--the blogs I follow plus access to my own blog--is linked to my AOL email address.<br /><br />The problems I was having with Blogger a few months back cleared up after I installed AOL 9.6, which automatically updated my IE browser. But for about the past five days I've been having more and more trouble getting Blogger to do anything. It started with a difficulty posting comments. You know how I love to spout off in the comments section of other people's blogs! It's a spontaneous thing and I don't plan it--I just kinda find myself doing it. It was frustrating as hell because I kept trying to do it anyway. I'd spend an hour on a comment and another hour trying to get it posted, and finally end up losing what I'd written.<br /><br />I was able to get this blog entry posted by using the stand-alone version of IE, not the one that comes as part of AOL. But that's rapidly becoming dysfunctional also. Finally last night, in desperation, I figured out how to sign out of Google Chrome with the Google email address and sign back in with my usual AOL ID. That gave me access to my blog and the ones I follow.<br /><br />--LindaRakshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280365011937595321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7088965984326304571.post-61298696528561739912011-12-03T18:43:28.604-08:002011-12-03T18:43:28.604-08:00inexplicably, that is.<b>inexplicably</b>, that is.Wugohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03406480515896743062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7088965984326304571.post-21194789405719837532011-12-03T18:39:06.178-08:002011-12-03T18:39:06.178-08:00Linda,

Google Chrome suddenly decided I was on a non-secure website, after previewing my earlier drafts with no problem. <br /><br />The reason I'm working in my Google Chrome browser, which I'm not very familiar with, is because Blogger has developed a serious allergy to my IE browser this past week and the problems are getting progressively worse. I'm going to have to ask for help in the usual place.<br /><br />If I can get this posted I'll see what I can do about reconstructing the "meat" of my earlier post.<br /><br />--LindaRakshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280365011937595321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7088965984326304571.post-4614447510209011092011-12-03T10:20:32.120-08:002011-12-03T10:20:32.120-08:00Metaphors aside, we are a scrappy, crafty species ...Metaphors aside, we are a scrappy, crafty species and we've been through much worse troubles than what we're seeing now.
