This isn't Alex, and yes, I really did this, but next to last place is not an achievement I'm proud of.
This isn’t Alex,or me, but yes, I really did this.  However, last place is not my proud achievement.

I achieved something today.  I overcame an annoyance that, for many months, demolished my joy in blogging.  To you bucket list – high achievers, I hope this post won’t destroy what little respect you might have for me when you see how little it takes to make me feel successful.  To Alex Gustafson thank you for showing me the way to success.

This may not look annoying. It didn’t to Alex.  But, believe me, it was!

 

So the problem was, my font got too big for its britches on my dashboard.  It took a scroll just to see my stats!

When it came time to post, I felt dyslectic trying to read the names of my former posts.  Even Ed—————- …it was on two lines!  Alex said everything looked normal to him.  Hmmmm… Right…

“Try adjusting the settings on your web browser,” he told me, and gave me a link.  That’s link, not wink!   https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/96810?hl=en

So I gave it a try.

Don’t you wish that the buttons they tell you to select had a big sign on them like this???  At any rate, I felt very intelligent that I was able to find all the buttons in the article.  And it worked.  My browser was the culprit all along, and now I know how to fix it if poltergeists every come in and switch it again!

So what underwhelming achievement have you accomplished recently?  Make me feel better, and I won’t tell you the struggle I had putting a border (simple, simple) on this last bit of media.  Poltergeists, I tell you!  🙂

Wait for it!  Wait ....  She's coming...  Keep waiting...

  2. Let me just say, I can relate to an achievement like this, sometimes it is the little things can be a big deal 🙂

  3. I’m so incredibly ‘untechnical’ it ridiculous. I’m sure there’s a lot of pages in my settings on WP and loads of fancy tricks on my laptop I have no idea exist! I think you’ve done very well.

    1. You are kind! The tricks all seem to attack me when I’m trying to do something simple! 😀

  4. I always reckon computers are amazing until something goes wrong and they don’t do what you want. I’m sure they have minds of their own and change just to spite us. Well done on being able to fix the problem.

    1. Right! Then how do you post every day, and never have problems???? I think you are the queen of blogging, so you have to be technical – a little!!! 🙂

      1. Maybe it’s because I don’t ever do anything fancy. I just write a bit and post a few pics. Simple! 🙂

        1. That’s certainly part of it. Your personality shines through without your blog being all about you. You tell interesting facts and weave stories around them, and have a great sense of humor. You are dependable, your pictures are great. Let’s see, I could say more, but… How’s your head this morning? It should be popping out of its seams just a tad bit. 🙂 🙂

  6. Isn’t it great to belong to a community that understand and help? It would have annoyed me too – and in fact I’ve just recently learnt how to do exactly that!

    1. It is great! I love WP. Other blogs are either not as easy to follow and make comments, or people are just not as friendly. I don’t know which.

  7. It’s good that you didn’t throw your laptop by the window… but on the other side… Why there’s no ‘reset button’ the same way as it is in smart phone for example ?

    1. I guess not. I looked for one because somewhere along the way I must have pressed zoom +++++++ But since I didn’t know it, I didn’t know how to correct it. On the other hand, I’m still thinking poltergeist.
