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!
Hugs,

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!

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.
Hugs,

If you want to make it a clickable link for the button on your sidebar it really is easy!

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!

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!

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.

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!
Hugs,

You do that in your settings in the section for comments. I'm sure you'll find it when you get there!
Happy blogging!

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.

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.

love it! YAY! 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!
