Just a request

This has come up before but I want to make the request again.

To make your posts more readable, please break up your posts into paragraphs. Long posts are fine and often necessary. But if they are just one long string of words, it hard to read them. My old eyes tend to cross when reading big long strings of words.

Thanks.

Please don't take it personally. It wasn't directed at you in particular. A number of folks do it. Heck, its real easy to do!

Not only are they hard to read, but some folks may not even attempt to read them. It just makes reading them all the more difficult and time consuming. Thanks for the reminder, Barb.

Another set of old eyes here saying...thank you Barbara for the reminder! I am guilty of sometimes passing over a long post with no breaks because my eyes just can't take it.

hugs

Another set of the 'old eyes' here also.

Thanks for posting another reminder Barbara. I have a really hard time reading a post when it is all one paragraph.

Love and hugs,
