Since I will never be new again and my mind, at this point in life, will not improve, I only want to do what I am used to without the threat that it will be upgraded to something "easier" and wonderful that will give me pause and anxiety.

I click on that and a little square appears with the tiny names of my other blogs (sometimes I have to click twice to get them). I click on the one I want.<br /><br />This takes me to the page where all posts are stacked in a pile. Familiar at least, where under each title "edit/view/share/delete" selection appears under the cursor --in my case, cursing seems to help. Good luck and have patience. I find it an exercise in self-compassion.Geo.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16221314320558128986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7740983595962649109.post-48308837252547119782016-11-23T11:39:59.557-08:002016-11-23T11:39:59.557-08:00Thanks, Hilary.
