Blogging World...Here I Come

It just takes my breath away to see how my daughter's and my niece have created their blogs. Some are very professional looking. Now my sister-in-law is starting to get into this, so I thought that it might be fun too.

I thought to myself, "that if my children could do this, I should be able to do it too. I'm only behind them a couple of decades in the technology world, but I'm the older person here. I'm somewhat smart, I should be able to figure out the computer and what the sites telling me to do, Right. It should only take me a few hours...well maybe 5 or 6".

I'll see how long I can keep up with blogging and make it interesting. It may last a couple days or maybe a week or two...maybe I'll even surprise myself. I'll start slow for now, since I sit at a computer all day long, the computer at home is sometimes the last place I want to go to when I'm home.

I'm sure it will be a while before I'm up to the level that my children are at. I have already realized that I need to somehow save/store my pictures better on the computer and that I don't have very many photos of me...I guess I'm usually behind the camera.

Wish me luck!

Wasn't sure if you were going to do anything like this...Sometimes it takes a long time and other times it goes fast. Jacob says, "Hi ramma" when he sees your picture and then he says, "that's rampa's house". He hasn't gotten the 'g' on the front of grandma and grandpa yet....still working on all the sounds.

Wow, I am very impressed! I thought for sure you'd be resistant to this, but I'm glad you're not. It looks great so far. You'd be surprised to find out how many people around actually blog, and it really gets fun having people comment on yours. I bet you'll pick things up faster than you think you will. And like Karen found out, there's probably a child in the house who can walk you through the steps if you get stumped.

Congratulations! Welcome to the world of blogging fanatics! (at least until it gets blocked for "possible spam activity" like mine!) Have fun! Living so far away, this has been a wonderful way to reconnect and keep up with family.
