I admire Olga's perseverance ....I wanted to give up at four tries. Do enjoy reading your blog though...and did you answer the inquiry from Huff Post to blog for them:)? Since the robot was not the point of your post -will comment on that as well. My husband is 7 years older and this past year I have noticed so many changes in this delightful man. No longer wants to drive at night, naps in the afternoon, asks for confirmation of conversations multiple times (had the mini mind test and passed:)....having numerous uncomfortable health issues....I wonder if he sees changes in me that I don't see in myself?? Thankfully we have each other to support and love.

I've had problems on other sites as well, from time to time, so maybe I'll try getting rid of it (if I can figure out how). Presumably, if I get bombarded by spam I can always put in back.
