A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow. (As an Amazon associate, I am compensated for qualifying purchases.)  

My iPad Ate My Blog Entry...

As you know, I love my iPad2, but it is not perfect.  For some reason that I can't understand it deletes my blog entries that I have saved for later review. Here's what happens.

I create an entry in advance on a PC and save it.  When I enter my blog using my iPad with the intent of publishing the post, it has disappeared. Then, when I use a PC to try to read the post, it isn't there either.  It is as if the iPad goes in and plays a practical joke on me.  I can tell you that it's not funny.

Yesterday I had a post about saving $1.50 on Pampers that was witty, timely and practical.  As you can see, the post was not published and my readers were deprived of the coupon savings.  I may just post the coupon without any text. It's not my preference, but I don't want my followers to suffer because of my technical difficulties!

I never had a dog as a kid. So, I was never used the "dog ate my homework" excuse.  And I know that excuse is generally disbelieved.  I now have empathy for those kids. It is a royal pain to work on something only to have it destroyed by something you love.

(Yeah, I do still love my iPad.  However, it was bad so it's not getting any treats, like that Tory Burch sleeve I've been eyeing! :-))
