YES!!!! I thought it was just me! I was thinking I need to reboot my computer or something ... I guess it's a GR problem

I rebooted and that didn't help. So glad it's a GR thing

Teri (teria) | 1554 comments Yes, I've had problems all day with editing. Glad it's not just me.

I love this mini challenge, I'm not sure how far I'll get with it but I'm gonna try!

I am so relieved to know that others have trouble editing posts. I thought it was just me as well! Looks like Bezos needs to work on fixing things. I'll try again this morning just to see if it is fixed...

Have folks also had trouble with the app recently? Over the last few days I've found that I can only do a few things in the app before it freezes, and I have to close/refresh it to get it to work again. I think I updated it recently, so it might be a glitch with the new version.

Thanks for looking into this! I also hadn't realized how much I needed the edit function. ;)

Alicia Ellsworth (sanukipityreads) | 160 comments Thanks Nadine. It's kind of frustrating not being able to edit my 4 challenges...

Yes, I started it, because it's Fall now. First day of Autumn was Sept 22. In NY it feels like Fall. The trees are all orange and red, nights are cooler, apples & pumpkins are at the Farmer's Market, all that jazz. We often get our first snow in October, so there's no time to lose!
