Frustrated!

For Christmas, Jason gave me the best gift ever!  A couple of years ago, we had our gmail email account hacked.  The hackers changed our password meaning I could no longer access my email.  More sadly it meant I also couldn't access my blog.  I was crushed.. I could still look at my blog but I could access it to add posts or more importantly to print my years of post.  We tried for a long time to figure out some way to print the blog so we could have access to all those memories...failed attempt.  So I started a new blog, which I admit, I have not been the best at (or even second best...I've been bad).  So, back to Christmas, somehow Jason worked some serious computer magic with the help of a blog printing company & for Christmas he presented me with my 1st blog, all printed out in a beautiful book.  I cried, a lot! 
Needless to say, as I've looked through that book numerous times since, it's made me want to do better on my current blog.  So following Christmas, I organized my pictures, made my list & set out to get my blog all updated, only to be foiled in my plan.  For some reason, when I choose to upload pictures for  post, it doesn't give me options to choose from files on my computer.  Kind of puts a damper on things.  I have heard lately about people using up all the alloted memory for their blog , but mine seems to still have a lot of memory (before I have to pay, what's the deal with that??)
I'm frustrated!!!  Anyone have any suggestions?  I need to talk to my blog consultant (Jen) but I am swamped trying to get New Beginnings put together.
Hopefully soon, all will be well & I can once again get caught up.

  1. Wonderful news that Jason was able to work his magic and get your old blog printed. That would have made me cry too. Good luck with the new blog. I know several people who have switched to wordpress blogs. And...thanks for reminding me to print my 2012 blog entries! I just did it! Hooray! :) Love you, lady!

  2. Mine did the same thing last summer...I wish I could remember exactly how I finally fixed it, but I do remember part that I had to do was under the compatibility option under the internet tools. Some how...or during a computer update or something....blogger had been listed under the view in compatibility mode...once I deleted blogger off that list it fixed some of the problems I was having at the time and I think/hope not being able to upload pictures was in that fix. If it doesn't work, let me know and I'll think some to see if I can remember what did fix it.
    Hope you guys are well!

    PS...Way to go Jason on the awesome present!!
