Fabulous Fruit Fridays!!! ~ Raspberry Season

Ahhhhh...summer time nothing more wonderful that this season!! This morning I had a lovely bowl of Raspberries with milk and some crunchy nuts on top. Yummmy :) Well I have to tell all of you a story about what happened to me yesterday. As I become more familiar with the Internet and enjoy viewing other blogs....I have come to admire different Templates that people have for their blog backgrounds to display their pictures and topic. So I thought I would love to change my blog look...simply because when I set up my blog I just worked with the Templates that Blogger provides which really isn't much of a selection. So I found the perfect template down loaded to a zip folder and tried to implement the change in my blog. WELLLL I LOST EVERYTHING!! and I don't know how I had done that....I started to cry and it took my four hours to find all my stuff. By the way Blogger has a very useless help section....only providing solutions to very basic needs. I had to search other resources to figure out what I had done wrong. I have never read so much computer stuff before in my life. So basically I'm totally afraid to implement a change on my blog now after what I went through yesterday. Thankfully I found all my stuff again....Oh and I usually don't say foul words out loud but yesterday was special!!!

  1. Could I tell you computer stories, when I call a help line why is the first thing they ask is it plugged in...Crista I can't even go there! I tried to get stuff off of cutest blog on the block. but could not figure it out...so I just am leaving mine alone...sometime I do find some of them a little distracting anyway....as for the raspberries, your costing me money...I now have to go shopping because I have a craving. Have a great weekend. Take care, cinner

  3. Your berries look sooooo yummy! I'm sorry to hear about your frustrating experience with changing your background. It looks like you were able to recover eveything, though - everything looks just like it did the last time I was here, except maybe there's more stuff over in the sidebar.

  4. Thanks Heather...makes me stop and think about what happened yesterday. "Nothing is ever what it seems" I will never asume that something is easy every again. I will look...I will think..then I will decide. :)

  5. I know that heart stopping moment when months or years of work vanishes in an abyss. You did very well to recover. Some things computer related can be a very steep learning curve. I've been tinkering with computers for over twenty years and still get nervous when trying something new!

    Lovely raspberries. That reminds me to go pick some more. Those picked and eaten straight from the bush taste so much better than shop bought.

  6. John...well isn't that nice that you have a garden to go and pick some Raspberries from...yummmy I agree. They are a bonus right off the plants.

  7. Hi Crista, I'm late again. Raspberries, yum yum..my favourites, so I guess there are none left!
    Sorry to hear about the 'template' problems - Have you 'saved' your existing 'HTML' template?
