It’s Tuesday. But I have miscellany for you instead of a photo!

Actually, here’s a photo to start things off.   Because a photo-less post is kind of boring.

The Survey Link (for email subscribers!)

First up, I, uh, accidentally broke all my permalinks (temporarily) yesterday morning, so all of you email subscribers got the wrong link to take the survey.

(Sorry about that!)

So. To take the survey (it should take less than 5 minutes), click right here, and you can fill it out.

Thank you, survey people!

I just wanted to say thank you so much to those of you who have already filled out the survey.   I really, really appreciate you taking the time to do that, and I’m grateful for your feedback, both positive and negative.

As I read through your comments yesterday, I kept wishing there was a “reply” button so I could respond to all of your comments!

(For instance, someone wondered why I don’t have a search bar, but there’s been a search bar in my sidebar as long as my blog has existed.   So, if you’re the person searching for the search bar…it’s over to the right.)

While there are some outliers, the survey results so far show a lot of consensus among you all about what you love, what you don’t love, and what you’d like to see in the future.

I’ll leave the survey open for a week to give everyone a chance to fill it out, and after that I’ll do a post summarizing the results and sharing what I plan to do in light of all the feedback.

The $50 Ting bonus ends tomorrow.

You may have missed this, because  I blogged about this in a rare Saturday post  (I ran across the offer during a weekend email inbox clean-out session.

(Update: Still behind on email, even after the session.   Probably always will be. Send help!)

Anyway, if you want to switch, today or tomorrow is a good time, because you get a $50 credit instead of a $25 credit if you open a Ting account through any link on my blog.

I added a “Pin It” button at the top of the post.

The Pin It button has been at the bottom, but several people said it was too hard to pin posts that way.   So, it’s up at the top now too.

Also, a reader said she was having trouble navigating around between posts, so when you’re on a specific post page now, there are some links up at the top of the post to help you move around.   I hope that’s helpful!

Alrighty….I think that’s all I’ve got for now! I’ll be back tomorrow with a regular post.   😉

couldn't do survey, kept say "not responding". I just like to hear what my online friend is thinking about. That's how think of you, a friend. Keep up the good work. thanks, Grandma Bev

Oh, I'm so glad you found it. Yay! I'm sorry that it was hidden...it used to be lower, but I moved it up a few notches to make it easier to find.

I would love for you to put the comment link at the bottom of the post. Often, I don't know if I have a comment or if I want to read comments from others until I have read the post. Makes more sense to be at the bottom not the top.

I completely agree. Sadly, my theme has no easy way to do that, so I'm in the process of hiring someone to tweak that for me. It's beyond my knowledge level!

I think that part of search bar issue is that it is kind of buried between the adds - feels like it is part of the adds, actually. Maybe better placement would help, or perhaps outline the box more prominently...

Regarding your photo, I recognize the petunias (light purple) but I'm curious to know what the smaller, darker purple flowers are??

You know, I have no idea! I took this picture while we were on a field trip, so the flowers don't belong to me, sadly.
