Making Myself at Home
Well, I am starting to make myself at home here. It is kind of nice to be able to edit the template of my blog to have what I want there. Hmmmm.... maybe this will be the push I needed to relearn HTML and to learn CSS. I used to play with HTML back in the early days, but I'm sure I have both forgotten a lot and there has been a lot of new options/codes added.
If you look to the right hand column of this blog you will see I haven't completely forgotten how to write simple code as I have added a Copyright notice and a blog listing to my sidebar. Actually the blog listing was supposed to be web links. I copied the code into my template, then changed the title and disabled the links that came with it till I have a chance to replace them with links to other blogs. Trying to do something like this? E-mail me and we'll try to work it out for you!
I guess the next thing to try is putting a picture in here... here goes... A little dose of cuteness for you... if it works!
Well, That seemed to work just fine
Things are starting to look up now that I am getting things figured out and set up the way I want. I'm still having issues commenting on some of the blogger blogs, so if you haven't heard from me, that doesn't mean I haven't found you... I just am having issues!

Well, at least I know where to find you, and that's the important thing. I won't be leaving AOL, as I have way to much other things going on in my life to worry about that darn ad on the top of my journal! lol I do respect you and the others for taking a stand against it all though.
I put you in my favorite places so that I can continue to keep in touch.. :)

Morgan is always the cutest! I'm so glad I found ya! I got you in my links already.
I'm hoping I simmer down sometime soon, so I can start writing happier entries.
The first day, I was completely lost. I'm starting to really get the hang of this now though.
We will survive!
Thanks for leaving a trail of crumbs so I could find you. I did make a small stand; I called AOL and told them to cancel my account. When asked why, I told them about the ads in the journals. I do not plan to leave, but at least perhaps someone made a record of my complaint. They gave me a free month's service, so about mid-December I'll call and tell them I changed my mind and I'm staying. Mosie1944
Ohhh wow! do i wish i had your knowledge about html !! I desperately want my sidebar to have links to other journals!
I really like your setup!.. wish i was more "techy minded".. sigh.
well.. i will have to settle and be glad i found your journal again!
funny, when i was a teenager (was i?) I had a toy cockerspaniel, somewhere ..not lost, I remember a picture i had taken of her surrounded by my stuffed animals lol.. in the background were 45 rpm "wrappers" hanging on my wall of Frankie Avalon and Fabian LOL LOL.. lord you just brought back that memory!! hahahaha
so glad you are here. I am trying to figure out how to utilize the space in the html code that allows for an extra paragraph of text... I keep doing it but cannot see it yet. Still working on that one.
I will be adding a copyright notice too.... good idea.
Welcome to blogger gf! I think you'll like it here. I'll be changing your URL on my blog roll to reflect your new home address. Keep in touch!
Visit Emmapeel. She's got a great sidebar list, alphabetized (!) and is willing to share both the instructions AND the list. Whew. I was bugged that I still haven't figured out how to do that and I can't sit still long enough to try.
