Could you please keep my father's friend Hazel in your prayers.  She has been diagnosed with Bladder Cancer. This is the second time. My dad called me last night to tell me. Very sad.


Also, has this happened to any of you who have blogs?  I got this notice on this blog I am writing this morning that said that they had put one of my posts under a warning notice because it contained sensitive content as outlined in Blogger's Community Guidelines, but it doesn't tell me which post it is. Also on the kitchen blog, it has unpublished a post for the same reason???  Again, not telling me which post they are talking about.  Is there anyway to find out what post it is?  Its very strange.

I can't imagine.

A thought to carry with you  . . .

  2. I has strange things going on with my blog yesterday. I don't know what's causing it either. I asked on my blog too. Just some weird stuff. I got that warning as well. I have to see if they unpublished any of my posts now.

  3. So many favourites today. Positive thoughts for Hazel. I don't use Blogger, but possibly someone reported one of your posts, goodness knows why, and that is why it was flagged. Hopefully Blogger can help you out, I mean if they don't explain things how can you fix them.
