At the end of last week, a friend asked if I had a blog button. That’s when it occurred to me I had not created one for this blog. After deciding on my images, I then began the HTML coding. This is really a simple thing, and a task I have done many times. However, try as I may I could not get it to work properly in my side bar. I don’t know what I was doing wrong, so I abandoned my attempts and found a site that generates HTML coding, which works in my sidebar with no problem. Do you see it in the upper right corner? Please snag it, if you wish.
Anyhow, the crazy thing is that my HTML coding works when placed inside a blog post or even on a page post, but it won’t work in the side bar. Until now, I have never had this problem. Has Blogger done something different? Have you experienced similar trouble? Please enlighten us by sharing!
Let’s get Monday started, so grab a cup of coffee and settle yourself in to read my responses to a few of my favorite Monday memes on Monday Morning Musings!
My first blog hop takes me to The Good Life . Each week, Stash prompts us to create a list of 10 things and Christine submitted today’s prompt.
“10 Things in Your House Which Need to be Fixed”
- storm door
- shower tiles
- kitchen cabinet drawer
- carpet
- exterior paint job needed
- interior paint job needed
- recliner worn out
- sofa worn out
- APC unit needs to replacement battery – just got it on Friday, will change out this week.

Forget the home repairs. I’ll just go for a new house with new furniture – the works! Wouldn’t that be AWESOME? Hey, don’t deprive me of this dream because this is all I have at the moment! 😀
Heather & her sidekick, Wayne, hosts MQAM hop. Each week, they post four loaner questions to answer, and then allow a free-for-all fifth question of our choice for readers to respond to in the comments. Sounds fun? Then, be sure to visit Acting Balanced for the fun!
Here’s a little more intel to get to know me better…
- February 10th is Clean Out Your Computer Day! It is a day to logically review, and delete old files and programs. Will you be taking part? This is a regular state of mind that I try to maintain. After years and years of neglect, I have become more determined to keep unwanted files off my hard drive. All important documents and photos I make sure to archive routinely to an exterior storage. It is safe to say that tomorrow I will be doing something to work toward my goal of keeping my computer clean.

February is also National Grapefruit Month – are you a grapefruit lover? Recipes? I like grapefruit. I prefer eating grapefruit in itself simplest form, sliced in half and sprinkle Splenda on each half. I love the Ruby Red grapefruit variety the best.
-
Are you watching the Olympics? What events hold your interest or are you just ignoring the whole thing? I’m catching clips of the games. My favorite events are ski jumping, figure skating, and the luge.

Valentine’s Day is Friday – are you planning to celebrate? The only thing I have planned at the moment is presenting DH with a hand-stamped card and a small box of chocolates. I originally was going to make home-made cinnamon buns, but he said he didn’t want them since he wants to loss some weight. Actually, we both need to drop a few pounds, so this will be a good thing to not make any unnecessary sweets.
My question is, what is your favorite truffle center in dark, milk, or white chocolate? A favorite easy-to-get truffle that’s sure to satisfy my chocolate craving & nothing tastes better than this an intense 72% cocoa dark chocolate lightly powder sugar dusted shell filled with a SEXsational creamy soft goodies known as Godiva’s Chocolate Lava Cake. This is sure to make you go Mmm in more ways than one! 😉
Do you like music? Would you like a fun, loving group of loyal bloggers to visit you week after week after week? If you’re nodding your head yes like I think you are, then you’re gonna wanna check out Monday’s Music Moves Me and be a part of the dance floor shaken’! Today’s theme is “love songs“.
