Not the Change I Hoped For

I spent a lot of time today trying to do something that should have been easy, that was easy in the past, that I thought would take no time at all, but which ultimately consumed the greater part of my evening.

I wanted to change the photo and the motto.  Blogger had other plans.  

My original layout is gone, never to be retrieved again.  It's my fault; I didn't back it up before I began.  Many, many decades ago, Brother agreed to help with any issues our new computing equipment presented so long as you back everything up.  If you don't back everything up, I'll hang up the phone. Alas, I have no where to turn.

Blogger has new templates.  I began to work with the restored almost to normal except for the picture and verbiage template, but the picture was immutable.  I could do nothing except change it out to another picture..... or I could have no picture at all.    

I have a new motto to try out.  I deleted the old one.... and that was it.  No opportunity to replace it with new words, no opportunity to undo what I had done.... nada.

The software tried to preview what the templates look like on all sorts of devices (no AI glasses option yet), but the glitches made it almost impossible to use. 

At this point, I've done what I can do.  Worthy verbiage will follow tomorrow, but right now I'm going to fold laundry.  It's a task I can manage on my own, a task I can bend to my will, a task that impacts exactly two people.

Please leave me a comment if I've made The Burrow unreadable.  I'll do what I can.
