Sleep interrupted –
someone’s knocking on the roof.
Crow comes for breakfast.

Peace interrupted –
someone’s knocking on the door.
Flicker comes for lunch.

They’re a bit fuzzy because they were taken through a window.
At least that’s my excuse this time. 🙂 )

Nothing like a little company in the morning…well unless you’re trying to sleep in. 🙂

May Crow and Flicker have a good day. May the eyes that watch them feel the heartbeats of their glory.

Some kind of song bird – I haven’t seen it – decided to serenade me in the small hours today. So glad I leave the window open and so was able to enjoy the show.,

I think the bird is race of Northern Flicker.

That’s probably right. A very shy bird, and one of my favorites. 🙂 Hard to get pictures of them.

A blogger called Chagall advised me to change my Gravatar address which I’ve done so maybe things will improve.

I shall test it out!

Alas, it still shows up as uapsnu and goes to the same page that says you’ve deleted that site. Maybe it’ll take awhile to kick in?

Just tested it out again and it appears your blog has been fixed!! No more uapsnu!! 😀

Sadly, this name change has not altered the “wrongly configured” message on my home page. Elsewhere I have learned my site details are being used by persons unknown but WP have done nothing about it.

Sorry to hear that didn’t fix all the problems. Wish I was more of a techie and could help. How have your site details been used? (I know some of my photos have come up in searches. I also came across a profile of a woman on another site – 3000 miles away and five years older, but with my name and picture. I’ve also heard of bloggers here having their sites hacked, and having to delete and start from scratch. I know we can upgrade (annual fee) and the customer service is better. Don’t know what that costs now….
Keep me posted if you find someone who can help you.

I really appreciate your concern. Judging from certain posts, and the timing of those posts, this concern is not shared by all bloggers and some people with knowledge of my personal circumstances are effectively engaged in ‘trolling’. I have given up hope of help from WP. It occurs to me that at the moment I’m not even a ‘customer’ of theirs, so they have no incentive and, for all I know, no legal obligation. What my next move is – I’ve have yet to decide. If I do opt to start another blogsite I will give you details but I would be grateful if you trash the message when you’ve read it and don’t share the information. Thanks again for your support!

It’s not fair you’re having so many blog problems. Do let me know if you startca new one. You might also consider the upgraded version (for a fee), as there are more protections and the customer service is better. At least that’s what I’ve been told. (I’m still going with the free version.)
BTW, I’ll be scarce for awhile… will be getting behind on reading and commenting – but will check in for messages every day. (Am dealing with chronic pain issues and needing to conserve energy.)
Good luck – hope things get straightened out with your blog!

So sorry to hear your pain is so bad. I noticed how you haven’t posted for a while. I really appreciate all the time you have taken to respond to my messages and posts. I hope you are getting all the medical support you need and that it will at least help. I’m sure all of your followers will send their best wishes, as I do. Hope you get the luck you deserve!

Thank you for such very kind words. I’m hoping to be better soon. (It’s a chronic condition that’s aggravated by sitting at the computer.)
Hope you get your blog problems straightened out. Your poetry deserves to be read and appreciated by more people. And thank you for reading all my work and your own perceptive comments!
