You're making me mad, Blogger


The only thing fueling her frustration was a sink full of dirty dishes.



Well, well, well,  today I learned that Blogger has a mischievous streak I never knew existed. This is a new one. I poured my soul into a post about yesterday, only for it to display a measly third before rudely lopping off the rest. To add insult to injury, it’s on a strict one-photo diet. I even ran experiments on my practice blog, and still got served the same reception. 

I honestly have no idea what to make of this. Some of you have never experienced the bizarre things on your blogs that I have. This is my third blog, and I thought, 

“Third time’s the charm.” 

Turns out, that’s what you get for putting faith in charms. 
(Not that I actually believe in them) 

Sometimes, all you can do is laugh!

  1. How crazy is that! I did wonder when I saw it. :)
    I think blogger is a little crazy right now. I have one friend whose blogs won't upload to a feed and another who doesn't get any comments, although she knows people are sending them. I hope it straightens out!

    1. Yeah there are a few just within the last few days, speaking of their blogger woes. I know I've not been getting the boys through the reader. I finally had to go check on them. About three days worth.

  2. Oh, no, Blogger, just stop!!! Debby, I honestly don't want to make the effort to change platforms and find another venue. Until Blogger figures it out, I'll be joining you in looking on the bright side and laughing because we know that this, too, will pass. Blessings!

    1. Yes, Sandie that was yesterdays post. I tried to post today, about what happened yesterday and it just kept cutting out most of my post. 😅 It does sound confusing - I'm confused, too.

    2. Actually, Sandie that post was Tuesday and you commented yesterday.

  6. I am having issues myself with Blogger. Not sure what the heck is going on with it. My last post on Wednesday never went into my feed. Tried again yesterday and same thing. The same 3 folks who saw it on Wed, responded on Thurs again...but others did not see it. GRRR. Guess we can only laugh. Janice

    1. If you have an external feeder, you can tell if it is working there - like on Feedly or some of those. It might just be the Blogger feeder here

  7. Blogger is bonkers lately. Some new posts show up on my side bar and others don't.

    God bless.

    1. I 'm laughing because it's just plain crazy - seems we each have our own unique issues.

  9. I've tried writing my posts in MS Word first then copy-paste them into Blogger.

    God bless.

  10. What a convoluted situation! I'm still waiting for my own sense of humor to kick in, but reading others' experiences helps somewhat.
    Here's to a better day!

    1. If you have a simple theme, most likely you won't. I mess around with the newer themes

  12. I hope Blogger gets it's act together and nothing worse happens. So far I haven't experienced any problems but that doesn't mean I won't. Ugh! I would hate to have to start over somewhere else or lose contact with you. You are one of my favorites.

  13. Blogger has a mind of its own. Very frustrating at times.

  14. Yes, yes, yes - I've had blogger do some strange things on my blog too. It's so aggravating, yet I put up with it just so I can blog.

  16. I don't think I am having problems but maybe I shouldn't have said that!! I haven't posted for a few days so who knows. I do hope my blogpost done today is going through and that you are getting my comments.
    Blogger can be so frustrating sometimes.
