Once you introduce even a smidgen of HTML into a post, then you need to go HTML all the way.

This means that instead of a "carriage return" to indicate a paragraph, you have to use the explicit <p> HTML paragraph tag. In HTML a carriage return is treated like a space.

I very much appreciate that advice! My learning curve is a bit shallow when it comes to these things but I am teachable, provided I don't get it all at once. You've already improved the quality of my posts.
