Thanks for finding me. Continuing WP problem since May. Once I’m retrieved from spam by a fellow blogger, I can usually make another comment successful on their site, but not always. It’s terribly frustrating. I’ve asked for help from WP, but no resolution yet. 😦

Actually, messages with “notifications” always get through. It’s the post comments that I make tend to disappear. Look for me next time that you see I’ve liked your post. That will be the true test. 🙂

Great image Sandra, and wonderful to see your sister graduating at the young age of 60,one should never be too old to get a degree, my wife Jill was 61 when she graduated with her PHD.

She is SO happy – not only to get the degree which is, as Miss E would put it, ‘epic’! But also to have no more essays to write!
