<--Do you see a little "Mac Apple"?

                     

UPDATE: 

I was afraid the tiny black handwriting on white, would be confusing, as a Background.  Some Dear Readers told me that it was.  So I switched to a dark handwriting on pink, for my Background.


Is this any easier-on-the-eyes?


Please!  Tell me what you think!


No one wants to visit a blog, where the whole thing has a very confusing look.  I know I don't like to do so.

Do you Dear Reader, see little pink "Mac APPLES," in a line, above???

Or do you just see little boxes???


Just an old photo of mine, which I came across, on an old blog of mine.  I have no idea how I did it, but this shows that photography-thing...  Where up front is clear and background is not clear.  Bokah or some such.  ,-)  Plus, it's of rain drops, and I love a pic with rain drops in it.  :-)

This makes me think of April showers.  And we are getting some March showers around here, soon.   So much for getting started on Spring Pruning, outside.
 
I'm not much for Spring House Cleaning inside.  But I do LOVE Spring Pruning outside.  ,-)   There is something about wielding a pair of clippers!!!  I love it!!!  I just love it!!!

Yes, I'm sure all the veins, growing around our back yard, shiver in their roots, when they see me come out, with CLIPPERS.  And well they should!  Because those vines try to take over!

If I didn't prune, it would be like Sleeping Beauty's Castle around here, in no time at all!  I must stand on GUARD!!!  ,-)

But I certainly wouldn't clip away the branch, which this little bird is perching on.  :-)

Nor this one...

In all honesty, I do not like this look. Too confusing. The writing covers almost every inch of the page except where you posted. It even covers my heading where it gives my email address, Dashboard, and Sign out.

me to only boxes not apples and it is really hard to read with all the writing on it. i can relate to the sleeping beauties castle thing, hubby is constantly hacking back vines down here, note i said HUBBY is hacking them, using shears was a favorite thing of mine to but now it kills my arthritis.

I only see boxes and I think your blog looks fine.

I see boxes...I love clipping back the vines...my hubby thinks I'm nuts...

I see only boxes. The writing does not bother me because I live in a confused state most of the time anyway. :) I love the picture of the little boy skipping along with the rabbits. No spring here. We had snow yesterday. Thank goatness it didn't stick. And 40 mph winds for three days in a row. Ugh.

You know what, you change your background so often, it doesn't matter if it is pleasing or not. I personally liked the last one with the pretty little flowers. MY $.02 worth!!!

The writing doesn't bother me on the background.
I see the cute little pink Mac Apples but then I too have an Apple.

Boxes, cute little boxes. Thinking of you with a pair of clippers is a scary thought.

What are you talking about...my beautiful nails? I have the most unattractive hands and nails that anyone has ever seen.

The pink is easier on the yes than the white and black was this morning. Still only see the boxes.

I see boxes.......
but they are very nice little boxes!!

I love the old handwriting. I have some old letters I may get out and reread! The dark on the pink is pretty!

Beth said...

My eyes see whatever has been suggested to me. Boxes or apples I saw something. ;-)

I like your background!

Hello dear Auntie, how's this for a late visit? lol I've been so busy the last couple of days scanning pictures of Corey through the years...at the wedding we'll have a slide show of both him & Kristin growing up:-) It's all done now so I can go back to visiting my dear blogging friends.

All I see are little boxes, no apples.

We were supposed to have rain today but it never came. The mild temps are continuing and the snow is disappearing at a fast pace...yippeeeee!! Maybe I'll be out there with the clippers sooner than later too! hehe xoxo
