This was going to be a thoughtful and meditative post about how blogging as a phenomenon has changed over the years (i.e., random musings after reading a New York Times article) along with an account of a pleasant biking trip on Sunday morning but after I hit 'publish now' I got a fatal error message and realized I had just copied over the copy of the post I had written.
So I thought I'd post the real highlight of the day and of blogging in general for me, our lovely smiling boy happily waiting in line with Jim to get a piece of carrot cake at a general store in a town in New Jersey horse country; a lovely boy loving to be out in the world.
That's why there's always something to blog about, yes there is.
1. Your experience is one I've had, which is why I now mostly compose posts in a text editor and then post
2.Jiminey crickets! That's a young man's face, not a boy's any more. Both my stepsons went suddenly from rounded boy faces to manly faces, overnight it seemed to me, which I didn't notice until I saw photographs...
They are both fair skinned & grow fair/reddish facial hair, so I didn't have the facial hair clue.

I rarely have the lost the post experience with Typepad---one advantage of Wordpress is that it auto-saves. I've thought of switching but I've switched sites so much I thought it best to 'stay put.'
We have to get a new shaver!
