Wow, this is... An adventure. Like you, I plan to stay around a while to see if the glitches get worked out. But....
At least it's a new " play toy". I like trying to figure out New "toys". This can be....well, but then....puzzles are a lot of fun. Or, they can be. And this sure is a puzzle.

Eeeek,.... Puzzles He He,... Awwww,.... finally got on, and, didn't time out... 8-)
Sending Love.. Hugs..., Huhs and lots of Sparkles Dearest Friends of the Circle,...

Now to try and navigate this thing.... Eeeek,...

I am learning. I really believe if given time all will find their way. Let's not give up. I love seeing the new AVI pop up.....our friends. They will get here. We are a Circle. Let's not let a little old migration break our Circle.

Rocket hope your mouth is feeling way better. We can have book ends Serenity.
LadyE we will get it tighter than Fort Knox given time. Everyone knows our profiles can be very low keyed. As for journals mine are pretty simple.

Hello to seek and Mary. I am with you Mary I like puzzles.

I'm with you Linda. As frustrating as it was, I'm getting a little more used to it. Unfortunately, I had DS under another email acct and didn't validate it (it was in spam folder). I had to provide a new email and password. Anyway, I'm starting from scratch with friends again. Gotta love DS!

My problem is the way the visuals are set up on the screen that are causing me huge issues with barely able to follow due to eye/brain thing. Still do not like the " trending" of people's post.......so it is a dilemma.

I am having problems seeing the items listed in light grey. Rant over. Toni, Good to see you tonight. Hope all is good with you. Mary, so you like puzzles. Give us hints along the way. Seek, welcome back from the internet wonderland. I sure have missed you hugs and sparkles. Hippy, Glad you are getting around this site much easier. I hope to be right up with ya soon. Dianne, I see you got your avi changed. Sorry you had to create a new email and password. What a hassle. DS did not recognize me for 3 days. Then, poof, I was on. I have finally found a soft place to land. Took my puppies in for their shots and check-up. Poor Daisy needs dental work. I made it down the hill and am at my mom's. She went out today and bought a new side-by-side refrigerator because she doesn't want to bend over to get to the freezer any more. Oh well. At least she made it home. Tomorrow is my cataract surgery. Will see you all later. Missing the ones no on here yet. Gentle hugs.

Hi Joanne, good to see you here. Gentle hugs.

Not happy with the new site at all..
I use IPhone.. Tons of scrolling, nothing at a glance.. I have over 10 pages of friends!!!
I think things will improve but right now it makes me not want to be here at all

i try to check in, but it boots me off before i can even post. i look at one thing and poof! i'm off, then it won't recognize my password, then the link they send me to reset my same password doesn't even lead to a link. i've tried every backdoor fix, and i'm good at those, i can. i've written and written and written them. sounds like marion and dianna are having the same problems. not a great format either.
marion, good luck with the cataract surgery.
i think all know how much i enjoyed doing the morning posts and hearing from so many and then our closing post and all the in between...BG's trivia, birthday parties, giving and receiving support. WHAT IF SOMEONE HAD AN EMERGENCY right now?
i can only see 2 lines of my post...change is fine when it is an improvement and i did try to prototype, but a week of beta testing is NOT acceptable and it was too late to ask real users. someone i know is a programmer on a very important level and they test and re-test and re-re-test. let the client use it and adjust to their needs. DS did not show us due respect and consideration b/c we are not their clients we are their customers. they have a captive audience. the advertisers are their clients. the developers are babes with little experience and certainly little to no experience with a support group's function. did they study the existing DS for months to understand the in the intricacies? very, if not totally, doubtful.
trying to get on has increased my stress and feelings of isolation. i can't just pop in on a break and see how friends are. i'm also concerned about those who don't check in daily, yet still need this support. i know this was a long rant, but this is one of my only lifelines. i don't have much support in my environment and i do look for it, but i live in a community where i'm odd man out, my family is under extreme stress and plenty of other goodies going on. well, i got on and spilled it!! who knows when i can check back in. love and hope to all who make it on...
