  Your load speed is veeeery slow (60s!)

  You can find the exact time/report of your load speed here: http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/V5Kiv/http://grownandcurvywoman.com/

  You can check out this other forum thread for details on what to do to improve your speed” https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/slow-loading-of-site-1?replies=10

  Based on the layout I would recommend turning infinite scroll off and limit the number of posts that show on your front page (#2 in the above link)

  Good luck.

  @megz0114
  Thanks so much for helping. By this fall I will be fully retired and it’s so good to know that you are skilled at search and willing to help other bloggers.
