This is a test posting

 --This is a test posting--  blogging on a new site---  Hopefully it will work out----and--Hopefully all of you people will be able to find me!

-Spark people is closing down, and soon, so I shall try to blog on this site--at least for awhile! 

You see, I need  to keep healthy-- to remind myself to not sit in front of the TV after dinner---eating chocolate ice cream---  to get out there in the early morning---  and hoof it to the highway and back--

Yesterday 3 families made it out here to the dock---  and kayaks  and paddle boats were loaded with children--in life jackets--and they paddled to Hawaiian Heat---an island down the lake. Our daughter named that island as she used to live in Hawaii and it was hot and it reminded her of her life in Hawaii.

I shall close this off--  This is a test run--

I wonder how many of you will find this blog?

Hugs--Lord love a Duck--If you don't find it, I shall miss yu all-

  1. Good job! That's really good for a test blog! Yeah, it's hard not to eat when you're stressed. SparkPeople closing is a big source of stress! That's a beautiful story about the island. Thanks!

    P.S. I know you posted your "Final Blog", but you should post another one telling people how to get here! Tell them it's under construction, if you want. It's just that some people don't use Facebook at all.

  2. I am SO EXCITED to see a blog from you over here! Brennan was kind enough to let me know it's here.

    I'm over here, too, by the way, follow my ID and you'll see on my profile that I have three blogs, the one that is my "every day" blog is the one called "OneKidsMom: A Little Old Lady in Training" (sound familiar).

    I am now running over to add your blog to my Reading List, because I really, really think the writing length of a blog is so much more suited to folks like you and I than FaceBook is!

    Hugs & love & support... you're doing GREAT. And I agree with Oceana Blessing... if you want folks to find you, put a link in a Spark Blog... if you post it, they will come!

    ✨💖 Sparking on, at BlogSpot!

  6. Well, you’ve been found by another SP refugee thanks to Brennan. I haven’t set up blogspot yet, been doing my blogs on MyFitnessPal. It’s easy to do, but isn’t set up for adding pics so I may end up here eventually too. SABLENESS
