Howdy, Dear Friends

As Odie already told you yesterday, we are back at the barn and the BoggsMobile and glad to have it so. Kelly Jo and I sometimes have a difficult time adjusting to large time changes but so far we have been sleeping at night and able to function during the day. I was awake in the middle of the night for a few hours the first night but it is definitely better than other times.

I sure appreciate Odie taking care of the blog while we were gone. I have not went back and looked at all the posts she wrote, but I will in the next few days. Hopefully she does not follow my grammatically errant ways, but unfortunately for her, she is my daughter and the nut usually does not fall far from the tree.

While I was awake Saturday night, I did take an hour or so to go through my posts from oversees and straighten them up a bit. When posting from my phone or iPad it is not easy to format fonts or paragraphs so they tend toward sloppiness. 

I wish Google and Apple would play nice together but they seem to thrive on making it hard on each other. When I use the iPhone app for Blogger (A Google Product) I can not control any of these things. If I go to the actual Blogger website on my phone or iPad the features will not work there.

The posts look great in the app on my iPhone but they end up very messy in real life. The lines and paragraphs are either jammed together or have three or four spaces separating them with no rhyme or reason. The last three paragraphs end up looking something like this.

Can you see the difference? That drives me crazy. Anyway, I straightened my posts out and added labels as well. I like for the posts to be labeled so it is easier to find something in a post later.

We did wake up enough to walk next door to church last night and today we should be full steam ahead. We have lots to do before we hit the road on the 30th and we have lots of family and friends to hug and enjoy as well. Oh, and I need to drink some salsa!

Odie did send in some pictures from last night including her trip with Lisa and Debbie to drink some salsa after church.














Thank you for praying for us while we were away. I tried to keep you up to date on the good things happening while we were in Nigeria but I will try to write a wrap up post from the trip soon. We also probably have a few pictures yet to be posted. Stay tuned.

God bless you all.
