Shopping Trip

Lindsay, Tucker and I made our annual trip to Fairhope, Alabama to Christmas shop. Tucker was so good all day.

Fairhope has the cutest little shops. It is like an old town with every kind of store you would need to find things. Pharmacy, toy store, boutiques, gift stores...you name it. We love to travel over and shop each Christmas.

I wish I could tell you I took lots of pictures, but I didn't. We were busy having fun!!! It was the perfect mother/daughter/grandson trip.

I snapped this one when we first arrived.

It also has the cutest flower beds all around town. 

I know I should have take lots of pictures.

Me trying on Lindsay's sunshades.  I like mine better.

By the way that hamburger with the gluten free bun was amazing. I ate every bite. I don't normally do that.

Anyway, I am popping in because I didn't want my last post about technical stuff that is hugely important to us bloggers to be my first post when someone visited my blog. 

I know I am crazy. I will be back next week with Christmas in the house, a trip to Auburn this weekend, a visit to the antique tent sale in Pine Mountain, Georgia, and hopefully some stitching!

I will leave you with this goodness.

That giraffe is attached to the pacifier:)

He didn't sleep all day. In fact, he looked around a lot and took it all in. He seemed to enjoy his first big outing!

See ya next week,

Sandy

Blogging Comments Solved on the Mac

If you don't have a MacBook and use Safari you can totally skip this post. I will leave y'all with a picture of Tucker meeting Santa. Lindsay said he slept the whole time.

For those of you who have had problems with commenting...keep reading for help.

Now onto commenting business.

I never quite solved my commenting problem which consisted of not being able to comment on blogger blogs BECAUSE I could not stay signed into my Google account.

Therefore I couldn't comment from my iPhone as well.

I cleared my history as many suggested to no avail. 

I could comment to those whose comments came up in a pop up box which now makes total sense since I finally read a solution that worked.

It all started when I did an update.

I even caved and downloaded Firefox which I didn't like as much as Safari BECAUSE if you have a Mac then you know you can use your mouse pad and enlarge things on the screen. Good to get details of those stitching pics. It doesn't work on Firefox:(

Today I finally found two sites to guide me to a solution. 

It occurred with a privacy setting which is why it probably doesn't cause a problem on the pop up box...nothing to track.

I found this site which explains it well.

You have to go to Safari in the upper left corner, click on Preferences, choose Privacy, then uncheck "pervent cross-site tracking.

The above link explains it well.

Then I found the same solution on an Apple discussion board that I had been visiting for awhile. 

I can assure myself "they" (not sure who) are tracking my every move anyway.. Alexa, my iPhone, traffic lights, etc.

Hope it helps someone else. I clicked out of it and now I am signed in again and able to comment on all my favorite blogs.

I am back in business on Safari which makes me happy.
