Typepad has been doing some kind of upgrade that knocked it out of commission since last Thursday. Not only could I not post, I could not make any kind of connection to my blog. By late today I discovered the post I'd set up early last week to automatically post today had done so. Alas, there are no photos in it again. I am assuming it's Typepad's problem. I am just going to ignore it all for another day or so and hope they get everything corrected.
Keeping my fingers crossed for you, Linda. And for Typepad too.

How frustrating!

Yes, I tried to comment on your earlier post and couldn't. And yes, frustrating. Hope it resolves soon.

Updates are the worst! Hang in there.

I always ignore updates as long as I can. But when the whole company updates? Yikes. Think it's all fixed but I'm holding off on publishing another day or so until I'm sure it's all done and OK.

Ha ha - so excited when I saw the Halloween pictures but when I clicked on Comment it took me off to the side and the post was not there. But it seems to be working on this post so that's a lot of progress! Half full glass - right?

blogger got weird with comments, and they also shut down the RSS(?) service to email posts, so...more than one program out there that tries our patience.
Hope it gets better for you!

I've been unable to access your blog for a number of days. Today's the first time I've been able to "get in" since wordless Wednesday. Weird message about confirming my connection was secure... Then it'd say it was secure, but it would not load your site. I'm sorry you are having this aggravation...

So frustrating! I can see your post—love that Pumpkin Mine—but can't comment on it. There are so many road-blocks to blogging and commenting these days.

Seems to be working now, Linda. How is it on your end?

ELIZABETH — I just checked again after seeing your message. I still can't get my photos to insert into the blog post. Only text. So I just sent a help message to Typepad. I had been holding off hoping it would right itself from their end. I can't be the only one with this issue.
Since I couldn't blog, I spent lots of time outdoors watering and doing cleanup as we just had a week of perfect weather. Started to rain yesterday and we had a brief but intense storm. More rain is likely today and we've got high winds.
I also finished a Blurb book that I started at the end of 2020. And I am working on two others. All are small 7" x 7" garden pictures. The only way to archivally save images is to print them. Having Typepad almost implode finally spurred me to start making books so I can remember my garden when I have to move sometime down the road.
Lots of fun looking at old photos. At some point the books will be on Blurb in their Bookstore and you (or anyone who's interested) will be able to see everything in the preview mode without having to buy a book (they're expensive little vanity projects).
Today I'm going to settle on the couch with coffee and a mystery and enjoy the rain.

Are you talking about the IVOM: Halloween post? Because I see plenty of pictures on that post.
