Blogger Is Changing The Rules Again

Apparently, Google is changing things around again. If you're one of my "followers" and do not have a Google account (who doesn't have a Google account these days!?), it will be necessary to create one and re-follow anyone on Blogger.

As part of this plan, starting the week of January 11, we’ll remove the ability for people with Twitter, Yahoo, Orkut or other OpenId providers to sign in to Google Friend Connect and follow blogs. At the same time, we’ll remove non-Google Account profiles so you may see a decrease in your blog follower count.

I wondered why I suddenly lost about 10 or more 'friends' in the past week. This is why. So, I went ahead and deleted the old "Follow" button since it will be rendered inactive by the 11th, and placed the new Google+ Followers button on the right hand side. If you would be so kind as to click, I do appreciate it. I've placed it below the Motorcycle Websites list (you can see where my priorities lay ... lol).

This is new to me also. Please let me know if I need to re-follow any of you. Thanks.

I'm still nursing a mild head cold. Just my luck, the sun is shining and it's lovely outside. *sigh* I would so love to ride. Maybe by the end of the week ...

PS: Now I just noticed that the Google+ Followers button on this page is not working. *sigh* Can't figure out why and I'm too weary to check any further. Sorry for the inconvenience. Stay tuned sports fans ...

PSS: It's been fixed ... I hope. ~:)

The Day After

These creaking bones are moving slow today. I blame the damp weather but it could be just plain laziness. The rain started last night at the party, then temperatures began to drop and now it's gloomy. Today has been as quiet as the tomb. Somehow after coming down off the sugar debauchery of last night, Hubby and I have managed to stay busy most of the day.

It just dawned on me I hadn't shared the pics from last night. I do apologize for the sorry picture quality. I'm still trying to get accustomed to the smartphone camera. Apparently, there's a trick to getting good photos from this thing. Wish now I had taken the Olympus.

Our long time friend and host, Daniel, cooking the roast beast.

He's a master with the smoker.

My plate of smoked pork, pork & beans, cole slaw, beef steak tomato.

There was much, much more and I made certain to sample it all.

My husband's homemade Banana Pudding was a big hit!

Hubby enjoying his meal with me next to Kawasaki Mule.

Now, you know I'd be near the machinery.

This is just a small view of the building Daniel built for

his parents last year. He's quite the master craftsman!

I added a star on the little girl's face. Since she is a minor,

I don't have the parents permission to put her face in

cyberspace. Just want to protect all the little ones.

We're being 'good' tonight, having a strictly vegetable supper (that's my story and I'm stickin' to it). *lol*

Thank you for stopping by. Hope your day was blessed.

Happy New Years

Even though I am not usually a very social person, we have plans to be at a friends house tonight celebrating the New Year. This will entail consuming mass quantities of sugar that is sure to induce a few comas, eating the roast beast, playing with guns and riding 4 wheeler's. Yeah, everything that is, I hope, politically incorrect. *grin*

I hope your New Year's is happy, bright, and safe. See ya next year my friends!

Happy Christmas Everyone!
