DISAPPEARING ACT

I'm not a happy camper today. The powers-that-be in BlogWorld have reconfigured the "follower" widget and succeeded in removing my followers, their photos, and links. I'm not the only person to whom this happened. The blogger help section contains numerous complaints about lost followers. For now, the follower widget is disabled because of a glitch within the system. The only option available to me within the widget is one which allows me to choose colors, not add followers. How odd is that? I don't know when this will be fixed. I truly value all of you who are so kind to follow my blog and hope you will continue come and spend a little time here. Thank you for your patience......Kady
