Tired Of Drippy Weather

I'm tired of cloudy and drippy weather. Aren't you? To cheer us both up here's a picture taken this summer of the sunset from my back porch.


Unfortunately it isn't green anymore. The vegetation  is now brown and crunchy. Sigh.....


Now a question for my readers. As I have already stated a couple of posts ago, I'm changing the appearance of my blog. In researching how to improve it I came across an article in which they questioned readers of blogs if they liked having music playing on the blog they were looking at. A LARGE majority said they didn't care to visit blogs where music played. And when I was viewing other blogs today I clicked on a blog that had 'Boogy Woogy Bugle Boy' playing blaring on it. It really was obnoxious and distracting. I didn't stay on that blog long enough to look around.

As you can hear, I have some musical selections playing now and I try to keep them somewhat low key. Do you, my readers, think I should keep music playing on my blog or not? Please leave a comment and let me know your opinion.

  1. Hi Roxanne. I'm usually multi-tasking when I read blogs, so the tv is usually on. Therefore, I mute any blogs with music playing. Especially if they're really loud!!

  2. I never realized that blogs could have music. My volume is always down unless I want to listen to something specific. I think it would detract from the contents of the blog.

  3. I have music on my blog. You have to go to the bottom of the page and click on it to hear it. I don't think many people ever do this. Yes, sometimes I like to listen to music while I look at all the beautiful quilts. Did you ever watch a movie without music in the background. It's awful. It has to be the right music for the blog.
