laurentany	Posted - Jul 26 2012 : 6:31:46 PM Well, I did it...finally created my own blog. Still have lots and lots to learn, but I made my first post tonight. If anyone has any suggestions or comments I would love to hear from you. I still dont really know what I am doing on there, would love to add the new girl gab button etc but I'm a little clueless with this whole blogging thing. Thanks for any comments and support you can offer!

You have a blog! :) Ask lots of questions if you're confused about how to do something - I think we've all been there...or ARE there! ;) I'm always learning how to do new things with my blogs everyday - it is amazing what you can do. Anyhow, your blog looks great and now I'm following! --* FarmMilkMama *-- Farmgirl Sister #1086 Be yourself.

Bear5	Posted - Jul 29 2012 : 8:32:14 PM Kris: Your blog is so neat and nice. I tried to sign in but to no avail. It said to put my email address, I did. Then it said not to put AOL. I was so confused. Anywho, I'll check it out every once and a while. I think you are doing a great blog job.

Bear5	Posted - Jul 29 2012 : 8:08:37 PM Laurie: Your blog is really, really nice. I keep wanting to start my own blog, but it seems to overwhelm me every time I try to start. I have too many irons in the fire right now, but when things calm down, I do plan to start a blog.

laurentany	Posted - Jul 28 2012 : 04:39:55 AM Thanks Kris, CJ and Janet! I appreciate your comments and suggestions. CJ as soon as I can figure out how to moderate my comments I will definately take your advice- good idea! I guess I will just learn as I go, which will make it part of the fun!

jan49829	Posted - Jul 27 2012 : 8:05:14 PM Looks good. I need to get back to my blog. I have not posted on it in almost a year. Been so busy with everything else. Keep it up and you will learn as you go. Janet Farmgirl Sister #3340 http://hardatworkcrafts.blogspot.com http://Jan49829.etsy.com
ceejay48	Posted - Jul 27 2012 : 6:55:28 PM Looking good! I'm your first follower!!! You can follow mine too . . . I have three! If you haven't set it already I suggest you set it to moderate your comments so you can read them BEFORE they are published. I hadn't set mine that way and got some UGLY, NASTY comments that were bordering on porno. I then went in and set it so that I would moderate them. Have fun with it!

kristin sherrill	Posted - Jul 27 2012 : 6:03:38 PM I finally started getting back into my blog too. I love it. I have a lot to learn too. Like how do you add buttons? And followers. And how to add blogs that I like on mine. Lots to learn. But I am doing good to finally get pictures loaded into my computer! That, my friends, is progress! And I commented on your blog. Your first one! Kris Happiness is simple. www.kris-outbackfarm.blogspot.com

laurentany	Posted - Jul 26 2012 : 8:43:24 PM Thanks Portia! I will continue to pray for you and your husband. I hope he is feeling well, and that something opens up for both of you very soon.

ptroupe	Posted - Jul 26 2012 : 7:20:57 PM Lauren, This is wonderful! You did such a great job. I have been thinking of blogging myself, but do not know how to get started. Guess I am not going to be your neighbor. We still do not have jobs and are now applying in the South--where we are originally from. Please continue to keep us in your prayers. Hugs, Portia Can't wait to read more! Wishing for the country life!
