WordPress reminded me…..

It’s been 9 years since I started this blog – April 22, 2016, to be exact! Since then, it’s mostly been tales of these two – Tiger and Benji – along with my travels and gardens, et al. It’s been a fun and challenging… Continue Reading “WordPress reminded me…..”

Don’t Look Now, But I’ve Been Tagged!

I love a good blog challenge, so when I was tagged by John Rieber, to participate in ‘Tag, you’re it,’ I gladly entered in! ‘What’s it all about?’ ‘Just answer the questions, ma’am, so folks can get to know you better.’ ‘Sure,’ I said,… Continue Reading “Don’t Look Now, But I’ve Been Tagged!”

Blog Testing and Sunset and Moonrise in Color

I noticed recently that one of my posts did not show up in the Reader, which resulted in fewer views. I logged a case with WordPress and after a few denials (I was assured it was there, though I knew it was not) it… Continue Reading “Blog Testing and Sunset and Moonrise in Color”

Till Next Year – Parting Shots of the Boys

About this time every year I sign off from the blog for a week or so. Somewhat begrudgingly as I really do enjoy blogging. But for me – and perhaps you – a break is in order, while I refuel before heading into a… Continue Reading “Till Next Year – Parting Shots of the Boys”

Creative Spammers

Like you, I receive dozens of spammy comments on my blog posts daily, and most of the time WordPress classifies them so. It’s giving this Spam a bad name! I found these at the Aloha Bowl Swap Meet in Oahu. Hawaiians love their spam,… Continue Reading “Creative Spammers”

Is that you WordPress?? How Cheeky of You!

Yesterday when I started a new draft post, these shadow words appeared: “Share five things you’re good at.” “Who are you?” I thought to myself. “And what are you doing on my blog??” Definitely creepy. I ignored it and went on, saving the draft.… Continue Reading “Is that you WordPress?? How Cheeky of You!”

Stand Up for Blogging!

Maybe not how you think. In my case it’s a matter of ergonomics. My entire working life I spent in an office, in a chair, with a desk and a computer. Well, actually, I’m old enough to say the computer came later. But I… Continue Reading “Stand Up for Blogging!”

On Cats and Blogging and a Road Trip

First of all, my apologies to the cats. “Sorry, Benji” “We worried you weren’t coming back, Sue.” “We’ll always come back, Benji. You can count on that.” “Same to you, Tiger.” “It was lonely without you, Sue.” “Sorry boys. It couldn’t be helped. There’ll… Continue Reading “On Cats and Blogging and a Road Trip”

Sixth Anniversary! My First Blog Post from Tiger’s Corner

I can’t believe it’s been six years since I published my first post on this blog with just a few cat stories in mind. I remember thinking immediately thereafter, “oh no! now what?” Honestly, I still wonder. But just when I think the well… Continue Reading “Sixth Anniversary! My First Blog Post from Tiger’s Corner”

Finding Inspiration in Three days of #Bloganuary

Yes I did, I signed up for daily prompts from Word Press to inspire my blogging, then mostly ignored the emails. Regardless, here’s a brief response to three of the prompts so far, at least my 1,2,3. Prompt 1: What Road Trip would you… Continue Reading “Finding Inspiration in Three days of #Bloganuary”
