I lost one of my favorite rings. I’ve had it for years, bought it at a fair in Denver by people who made it themselves. It was a simple thing, I don’t go for fancy, but I loved it, and I miss it and I don’t remember losing it. I don’t take my rings off at all, so I feel very lost!
And then I lost a post or two tonight, because WordPress is eating them! I went to the wordpress forums, and someone mentioned using offline post editors, and so I’m giving it a try. There don’t seem to be many for Macs, but Qumana is, and I’m using it now, and it looks good so far. It has, on initial use, everything I would be able to do in wordpress’ editor.
And while it doesn’t seem important to me right now, I will have copies of my post off line. Well, it never hurts to try new things! Maybe I’ll have an easier time concentrating on what I’m writing instead of getting distracted by all the other things I have open in the many tabs I always have open.
And I’m not sure why, but someone found my blog searching bad cramp second toe. I can’t imagine what they found! Someone else found me searching for vegan banana pancakes. At least they got exactly what they were looking for! Unless it was me, making pancakes for them, or pictures of the pancakes. But they got a song too! That should count for something!

Deb, my regrets on your toes, lost rings, lost post! What a combination. I’ve lost a few thangs in my time. I think I lost a few feathers today and chipped one of my talons.
Love the photo!
The off-line thang sounds good. I’ll have to try it out. Also, I’ll be by later on to peruse your other posts. Just haven’t had time.
In closing, I just wanted to mention I have been a reader of yours for awhile and I dig your site (I use del.icio.us) very much! My apology for not getting in the groove of posting comments until recent weeks. Aside from that and I’m just bonkers over bananas, I’ve added you to my 5-Star Destination Roll. And the crowd say, ((((About Damn Time))))!
Please accept my apology. Potty fingers tu sais! Sometimes uncontrollable.
Taking off…………………… Gone!

Hawk, that was apparently just the start of a difficult 24 hours! I swear it was so bad by the time I got to work (luckily accident free) that I warned a coworker as I rinsed out my mug to make myself some tea “everything I touch today breaks, so beware!”
The visual of some lost feathers and a chipped talon brought a huge smile to my face. That’s exactly how it has felt! Though I suppose it would have to be whiskers and a nail for me.
And thanks for the compliments on my blog! I should learn more about del.icio.us at some point, I’ve been so lazy so far!

I’m hoping you found it at home as you said maybe you’d lost it there? Been thinking about you today – wondering if you’re gone for the weekend again.
Peace love.

Maybe it was Jack Johnson searching for vegan pancakes because he went vegan.
But it does suck about your bad 24 hours, though I think the next 24 have been better.

Ruby, I haven’t found it yet, though I need to do some major cleaning on my place this weekend, so maybe I’ll find it in the end. I really hope so! I should be around most of the weekend, though I am off to the sanctuary in a few minutes!
Rich, that would be sooo cool if it was. I’d totally make him (and his family) vegan pancakes! Especially if I could do it in Hawaii at their place.
I think that the curse has been lifted. I haven’t broken anything in a few hours. Of course I was sleeping the past few hours, but…

Deb, just wanted to swoop in for a moment and say ((((HOWDY!)))).

Thanks Hawk! You’re always welcome to swoop in here!

Hi there I’m glad you are now using an offline blog editor because it’s heartbreaking when posts are lost. The most popular one for Macs seems to be Ecto but there are others as well as Qumana.

Thanks timethief! I admit I used Qumana only the once, and didn’t bother to research others. I think it was you on the forums that mentioned a bunch of them, and that’s how I knew about Qumana. I’ll have to check out the others for Macs too.
Thanks for stopping by!
