Movin' on

Today I got tired of dealing with Bloglines and moved on to Google Reader. Bloglines had been misbehaving & even though they said it was fixed the notifier still wouldn't pick up new posts on the sites I was subscribed to. So far Google Reader seems fine but only time will tell. I'm too old to put up with this 2.0 stuff that gets aggravating, ya know?

Basic is best

After trying several different blog templates I came to the decision that simple and basic is best. I tweeked it a little to make it easier to read and I can play with background and text colors. I'm going to call it good (just don't hold me to rigidly to that statement). I'd really like the whole thing to be wider but haven't figured out how to do that.

Update: Well, duh!! To make the whole thing wider all I had to do was choose the stretched version. How simple is that? Now I need to find a picture for the header to dress the whole thing up a little.

ANOTHER new page template!!!

Last night I tried out another new template for my blog. Actually I was trying to put a Halloween theme on, messed it up, tried another one & couldn't make it work, so just decided to go with something basic. The green floral was really pretty, but a bit to frou-frou for me so I ended up with this blue one. I like it but don't know if it will be the final one or not. There's just so much choice out there in cyber space!! LOL I also learned the hard way that changing templates can erase your list of blogs you read, widgets, gadgets, even your profile. And, sometimes they mysteriously come back. HA!

Prettier!!!

There now, isn't this template a lot prettier than most offered as basic Blogger templates? I've found a wonderful new time waster on the computer---looking for Blogger templates----bet I could waste HOURS. Just what I needed, you know??
