 What was supposed to be a fun, quick little blog entry about the wonderful weekend I just had with some friends at the Helen, Georgia Oktoberfest has now turned into a study of grief and frustration.  Somebody somewhere arbitrarily decided to go and make my life better by tweaking the process of uploading photos to my blog.  When I first decided to face my computer fears and learn to blog I got a handle on how to do it and things were great.  Then we switched from Kodak to Picasa for managing our photos and I had to learn a new process, then we switched from a PC to a mac and I had to learn a new process, each time I struggled through learning the new way and thought that once and for all it was behind me and I could happily blog away without any  more computer angst, and now suddenly and for no apparent reason, I cannot upload the pictures the way I used to.  Did the good people at Google switch something on me without notice?  Did Steve rearrange the properties of i-photo unbeknownst to me?  Who knows.  All I know is a few weeks ago I did it without a hitch and now this morning...well suffice it to say I am going to have to re-learn again!  If you do not see a new post in a while you can bet its just me postponing the inevitable frustration of starting over at square one.  Now I am too annoyed at the hour I spent trying to upload my photo to wax eloquent about friends and fun in Georgia mountains, maybe later, but don't hold your breath.
