Back To The Future, Twenty Fourteen Theme #wordpressdotcom #wordpress

I change my themes more than some folks change their minds. Since I am using Instagram pictures on my blog again I found they display better across various platforms using the Twenty Fourteen theme. The widgets are in the same places you might have seen before. I like how much content you can display using this theme too. Thanks for putting up with the changes and remaining connected. Keep on blogging good people.

Thank You, You Know Who You Are.

There are lots of people who have been there for me through the years. I don’t think I say thank you enough to them. Without their generosity and care my life would be very different. We all need to be extravagant with our thanks and gratitude to everyone who makes our lives better. Our lives are not meant to be spent on an island so we have to be in this life together. I can’t list everyone I need to thank, that would be a really big blog post but I just want to say thank you everyone, you know who you are. Once again, thanks!

Thank you to http://loveyouandthem.wordpress.com/ for inspiring this post. 

Happy Canada Day 2016

Canada

To my Canadian friends and fellow bloggers I hope you will have a great Canada Day celebration today. I have great respect for your country. May it always be true and north. God bless your home and native land today and always!

World Blood Donor Day, June 14, 2016 – #blooddonor @bloodassurance

June 14 is World Blood Donor Day. It’s a great opportunity to celebrate those who give the gift of life and spread the word about the value of donation.

What we see every day around the world is situations where blood is needed for those in need whether it be for surgery or because they have been in a serious accident and require an emergency transfusion or as we have seen in Orlando the need because of a mass shooting. You never know when you will need blood to save your life or even saving the lives of someone you love. Being a blood donor means saving 3 lives with every donation. If you can donate please consider donating today.

YABAR – Yet Another Blog About Reblogging

OK, perhaps I am just overreacting and making a mountain out of a mole hill about this reblogging thing.

Here are a couple of ground rules for my followers…

  1. DO NOT reblog personal posts that include family and other personal pictures.
  2. Ask for permission if there is something original I have written that sounds academic or poetic or something that could be used to advance my life and career.
  3. Other posts are OK including my music posts and other posts about current events, culture, etc.

Maybe that will eliminate unnecessary drama and angst on my part. I really wanna play well with others and perhaps have some of my stuff get the eyeballs and ears of others across the blogosphere.
