I’m not sure why I can’t see ‘like’ buttons on this blog. If I could click one I would.

WordPress has made some changes. I think, at least within the app, you have to click the response, then it takes you to the comments thread, then you can click the like button that way. This is in Reader. You can always go directly to the site and click the like buttons in the comment thread there. I hope this helps. 😊

I’m directly on the blogsite. It seems to just be this site, the ‘like’ star or button is available on others…

Ellen I love both your stories! But strictly speaking the ‘rules’ are that everyone can only submit one story. Do you have a preference which one I enter in the poll later this week?
