    Glorias blog. This morning I had 2 emails for
    mail failure for Sue P and Kirstin. I dont know why this happening but its a downer to do a hop and not be able to comment. Discouraging and disqualifys me for a chance to win.

  69. Hi Mary, Thanks for the fun blog hop! I enjoyed seeing all the wonderful creations. I wanted to let you know that I had a little trouble leaving comments on two of the blogs (Laura and Gloria). For some reason both of these kept saying my google account didn't have access and they did not have the Name option listed in the comments section, so I wasn't able to leave comments there. Thanks again for the fun hop!
