No!
Not the camel, silly…..

! ! ! ! !

What I have to share with you, 
is kind of funny…..

I have been wondering….

for a loooong time now….

why was I not getting email notices
of new posts
from my subscriptions ??????

And time went on….

I would get lost in the Notification bell icon
and work my blog interactions thru that.

Or peek in on the Reader and interact there.

BUT, today….when I realized
I missed an important post
of a dear bloggered friend….

and I missed it by 11 days….???

That was UNACCEPTABLE ! ! !

I was left speechless of what to say to her!
I did visit her post and gave her Octopus Hugz….
that was all I could conceive of at the time….
And I have not told her yet,
about what I discovered.

Do yourselves a favor, and drop over to Dolly’s blog….
koolkosherkitchen

Not only will you discover awesome foods and recipes,
you will get a unique learnings, in the process.
Dolly is a talented cook and fabulous author….
or is that a fabulous cook and a talented author?
Either way….
She has taught me things,
which I had no intentions of learning.
(thank you for that, Dolly!)

AND

without a doubt,
she is very deserving of the
Best Food Blog Award

Back to my story. [see how I get sidetracked?]

…well, that is when I said NO MORE of
”not getting emails from those I follow!!!!”

I spent several hours today,
hunting, searching, discovering, learning…….
and a bit of the frustrations of unknown research,
asking the WordPress Support variations of:

WHERE ARE MY SUBSCRIPTION EMAILS?

 

 

And after hours of much trial and error and outdated help topics.…..
I found my answer……

And with a little click of my mouse,
I will now get notified when she posts.

HOWEVER……

Not only was Dolly’s email turned OFF…..
I found nearly 70 of my subscription emails turned off.

SAY WHAT?

And in the process,
I have discovered why I am not getting
email notice of another bloggered friend.

I have missed many of his recent posts also!

However, this one…I am not able to correct.
And I feel that by posting the screen shot,
it is the easiest way I can think of to notify him,
so he is able to follow up on it.

And that concludes my post of:

“a funny thing happened to me

Thank you,
