For the last week or so when I go visit other blogs and want to leave a comment as I have done in the past, I click on my google account.
In the past when I did this it will pull up my profile so I can post under Quilting Ranny. However, recently when I do that, it requires me to go back to the blogger log in, enter name and password, sends me back to the comment field, I hit enter and I have to go back one more time and enter name and password. Only on some blogs.
This is driving me crazy. I haven't changed any of my settings, so I do not know what is going on.
If anyone can figure this out, please let me know!
Thanks!

Wow! I was just looking around my blog thinking today I needed to make some changes, however, lately, I am totally exhausted all the time and just no passion to post when I saw how blessed I have been in my blog followers, visitors and did I really say that much?
I started this blog way back when I was trying to operate 2 blogs and this is the one that everyone seemed to gravitate to, so I closed out my 911 Quilts for Charity, a blog dedicated to making quilts for those that are heard but never seen, those that hurt when tragedies happen but are rarely recognized and those that still have their homes burn down, lose loved ones, succemb to cancer yet there rarely is anyone to reach out and help them.
Through this blog however, my quest to help others continues and I have been so blessed.
However, lately, I think the stress of life has begun to suck me under a bit and I just need to get some energy going. Once I begin to move again, I will feel fine. Once I know in which direction to travel, I will be great, but having unanswered questions weighs heavy on my mind and body at times.
I tried last week to walk, however, wound up with food poisoning or some horrible flu and was sick for 3 days and since then, I still feel giant waves of nausea wash over me! So, I haven't been doing much, it is like I have motion sickness all the time.
No, I am not pregnant!
I feel I should have a giveaway here and last year I was always having giveaways on my own, with donors, but this year it seems some of those have been hit by the economy going sour and haven't contacted me at all, but I am contemplating a giveaway and will probably be something wonderful like handmade soaps or something indulgent like that!
So to those of you who have stopped by, who leave comments, who lurk in the shadows, who bear with my rantings and ravings...God Bless and Thank You all!

Will It Be Finished On Time?
What you are looking at is just a small section of the 42 little Scottie Dogs I have drawn for this quilt I decided to complete for our local county fair!
Here is the kicker, the fair starts on Monday 8/8 and I have to have this completely finished by Sunday at the latest to turn it in for judging.
This is what happens when I get worried or stressed, I come up with yet another brainiac idea and this time I found these and thought, I can do this.
From the paper they go to the fabric that will be the puppies and then onto Muslin so I can blanket stitch them. I can do many in the evenings while watching television, but whether I will have these done in 4-5 days remains to be seen.
I will keep you posted on my progress.
