Blogging for dummies.



If you haven't noticed, I'm still trying to get the hang of things. My typing has gotten a lot faster, I learned how to use spell check, and I have become more efficient at posting photos. I did learn however, I'm suppose to downsize my photos so when you click on them my nose doesn't take up the entire screen. My son saved the day and explained to me how to download powertoys so I will now be able to resize photos in bunches. Yeah! I also learned I can upload photos 5 at a time to my blog. I am out of my comfort zone for sure!

I will be adding to my favorites as I go. Baby steps...

Any suggestions would be appreciated. This is definitely learn as you go. Thanks to all for your kind words and encouraging comments.

I suspect I might be overthinking blogging. I am so worried when I write something, it may be taken the wrong way. Am I the only one that worries about this?

Since I haven't figured out the whole reply thing...Yes, I will be at Oronoco in August. Will let you know where as I know more. Yes, it was really weird seeing my daughter dead on TV. Her episode is in reruns now. It is the Las Vegas CSI and the episode is called Sweet Jane. I only watched it once...that was enough.

I think I'm getting hooked on this blog thing!

  4. Ki,

    Glad to be "on board" and look forward to much future sharing with you and fellow bloggers.

    As a "boomer junker", I can fully appreciate the "learning curve" you are currently experiencing.

    As far as keyboarding skills, you may be like me. Neither slow nor fast - just sort of "half fast"!

  5. I over think my blogging too! I reread and reword my post about eight times before I feel good about it.
    I'm enjoying your blog and can't wait to see some projects.

  7. First off, I have a blogging award for you. Come by my blog www.alovelything.blogspot to pick up.

    Now -- how in the heck are you uploading 5 photos at a time? See, you're already wiser than some of us ;)

  8. Yay!! Welcome to blogging! You're doing a great job already. :)

    I prefer to host my pictures on another site and put them into my posts so I can make them as big or as little as I'd like. It's quite easy and if you need help, I'd be happy to walk you through it. :) Just email if you want to. It might take 15 minutes to learn, but it makes such a difference!
