Blogging update

Despite our recent move, I had every intention of keeping up with this blog, my reviews, and the weekly memes I participate in. However, on Tuesday, my computer gave up the ghost. I am devastated over the loss. Everything I had on my computer is lost, we had not backed up the hard drive. I do all my blogging on the computer and haven't had the heart to try and blog on my phone. 


It is much harder for me to format and write posts on my phone . It is also harder to pop over to your blog and comment, or reply to comments on my blog. I do plan to try and see how it goes. I haven't yet because I am overtired and overwhelmed. I don't know when we will be able to replace the computer. It would have been immediate if we hadn't just bought a new house 🤦‍♀️.

Anyway, I hope you all are doing well. I hope to be by to visit you soon, and get back on a regular posting schedule. I miss my routines, including blogging. Have a great day, friends. 

I am curious, do you do your posts for your blog on your phone or computer? Which do you prefer?

  1. Oh man...Cindy!!! Noooooooooooo! I'm so sorry about the loss of your computer and everything that was on it.

    To answer your question, I do my posts for my blog on my Chromebook, which is like a laptop except it doesn't use Microsoft Windows and everything is stored in the cloud.

    I hope everything is going well with the new house and belated congratulations on that ! I'm a bit behind in everyone's news.

  2. I hope that other than the computer giving up on you, that the move has been great. But my goodness, talk about poor timing!

    I've always blogged from my Mac. I agree that trying to format from my phone or my iPad is more cumbersome than it's worth. Maybe that's just me not wanting to learn something different than what I'm used to, but nevertheless, I won't be changing my routine any time soon!

    1. Shellie, thank you! We are busy, there were the usual hiccups with moving, but I am still reading :) We are replacing my computer and my husband did a temporary fix on this computer, but there was no way to recover what I lost. I am hoping to start playing catchup today.

  5. I'm so sorry about your computer issues! That's always so frustrating. And what rotten timing. Like you need any more expenses right now. I wouldn't even know where to begin writing a blog post from my phone. I have to use my computer. Good luck getting everything up and running.

    1. Thanks Lark! My husband did get my computer usable again, it just doesn't have any of my stuff on it. But, it's better than nothing.

  6. Oh, Cindy. I am so sorry for your loss. There is usually something that goes wrong during a move but that is a hard one. At least you can still get to the blog but it's still totally devastating. Many, many hugs.

  7. I am so sorry, Cindy! Losing things like this is SO bad and it does feel sad, especially if it's a big project or something you've put a lot into creatively. I hope you were able to set things back up without too much trouble.
