Oh goodness, they finally changed it to the block editor. Wow, just wow! I don’t like it.
I promised myself to blog every day and I missed yesterday. It is October 2 now here in our country but WordPress is still dated October 1, that is until 8 am, our time. It is now 7:13 am.
There is a problem with our Social Security Pension, they changed the rules in crediting our money without properly informing us. I haven’t received my September pension yet and it’s already October. This government really sucks. That is our money we are talking about here. Last month, they discovered the 15B anomaly in our Philhealth. We contribute a certain amount here based on our salary nas instead of investigating the officers of the said govt. entity, duterte just allowed him to resign and they are talking of just scrapping it one of these days. What about our contributions which help us pay our hospital bills when we are hospitalized. Crazy, crazy government. They are now trying to discredit Facebook and duterte said he would ban it in our country just because Facebook cleaned up all those troll farms in favor of duterte. Maybe he is forgetting he won in the 2016 election because of using fake news and these trolls who are being paid at the expense of us, the taxpayers. I am fed up.
Two days ago, Nissa sent us a box of Peri-Peri chicken with all the condiments (barbeque sauces) and side dishes as a treat on her birthday. Such delicious treat.
I promised myself to start propagating some of my plants here. I started a few days ago and yesterday my seedling bags arrived. Now I could transfer some of them. All the three seeds I ordered online have now sprouted. I hope they would grow into those flowering Adeniums soon.
Gosh, I am having a hard time using this new block editor. I don’t even know how to add photos and use the tags and categories. So in this post, there are none of those.

Yes, thanks. What I do now is to put the photo in my media library then just adjust the size of it.

I hope you will feel comfortable with the new editor quickly. Struggling to get things where you want them is discouraging when your goal is to communicate.

When I started a new post Anne, the new app appeared. Don’t know how to get back to the old one.

There used to be a way to get the old editor back. I’m sorry, I don’t remember how to do it.

I’ve tried it but didn’t care for it. I still use the old editor. What a thoughtful daughter!

Hi Arlene, I’m assuming you’re talking about the old editor. When I log onto my Stats page I go to the bottom on the column on the left side of the screen. At the bottom of that is what’s called WordPress Admin. I hover my mouse over it and I get the option of posts. There I just click on “add new post” and it takes me directly to the old editor. I hope this helps! 🙂

Arlene, I just went to my desktop a little while ago and discovered that my classic editor has disappeared! 😳 Guess I’ll have to learn the new system as well. I sure would have liked a notice that they were cutting it off at a certain date.

Just posted how you could go back to the classic editor, just bookmark it for future use. You log out first then enter it on your browser, it will take you back. Just tried it. Yehey!

After you type your title(they require a title) you will see a little black square. This is a cue to have you enter something. You are looking for a block called “image” or for several pictures “Image gallery.” WHen you click that it will ask you what pictures you want to enter.
