Just Messing Around

I figure the best way to learn this blogging thing is to just do it, so in this post I'm just messing around with things I should know how to do.

First, I need to know how to link to other blogs I like, so here they are. The first one is my daughter's blog--she's artistic, creative, and learning the blog thing right along with me. (Hmmm, not bad! It only took me two tries to figure out how to hide her link behind the words. Yea!) Let's try that again . . . I've also get a lot of encouragement and some laughs from Lysa Terkeurst's blog. Check it out! (Cool! it worked!) Finally, one last try here . . . I found this wonderful blog and the writer just happens to be in one of my favorite places in the country this week. Do you know where that is?

The second thing I've wanted to learn how to do is to post pictures. I've made it a personal goal to learn how to do that this week and since the week is coming to a close very soon here, I'm going to try it now. . . .

Well, that didn't go quite as I had expected it to. The picture (of Thunder the wonder dog) ended up at the top of the page for some reason. Maybe I have to upload my pictures first and work around them. I'm not sure.

One more try . . . hoping the picture will end up below this line.

It didn't. Oh well. I'll try again next week.

In the meantime, I think I'll go back to what I was doing--reading "The Appeal" by John Grisham. At least I know how to maneuver a book!
