What A Nightmare

Over the weekend I updated to Windows 10. When I went into the blog (this one) I didn't have a "New Post" or "Design" tab. All it had was "Dashboard". When I went to "Dashboard", it told me I didn't have a blog and start one right away, even though I accessed it through northerncaliforniatrout.com.

I went though all the Blogger forum posts, help desk (who told me someone else owned the Blog), had my wife help me, and emailed Mike (Troutrageous!) (who has helped me so many times in the past) who told me he had upgraded to 10 and didn't have a problem. From a suggestion from Mike I even changed my browser to Chrome.

By this time I was pulling my hair out (with tweezers since it's so short). I didn't know what to do.

So what I did was sit here and stare at the blog and Shazam! it popped into my head what was wrong. When I did the upgrade, Google changed my login. The problem is that I have two Google accounts.

Once I changed it back to the original Google account the blog opened like normal. The one thing I noticed on that account is that there were a bunch of Primary, Social, and Promotions (who cares) emails that I didn't realize were there generated from the blog. So if I didn't answer, it's because I didn't realize they were there and they went back to the dawn of time. My humblest apologies.

So I sit here eating a bowl of Tillamook Mountain Huckleberry ice cream, patting myself on the back. You should try the ice cream, man it's awesome and so is the Marionberry Pie one.   

I'm back in business although with a might less hair. And this is what my wife does for a profession. I don't know how she does it, but she says she loves it.

Fishing Thursday. Stay tuned.
