I've got a long way to go.

Sometimes, just for fun, I like to browse different blogs and see who else is out there. And of course I always read the ones that I have linked here on my page. It is a neat thing to be able to read about someone else's life, experiences, and insights. (most of the time, anyway... sometimes it is downright scary, depending upon the blog I happen to stumble upon.)

However, I must say that is rather discouraging as well. I come away with a serious feeling of blog-inadequacy. How did all of these people get their blogs to look so personalized and so CUTE??? All the fun, clever, pretty headers and titles. The beautiful backgrounds. The unique setups. The witty, inspiring, funny posts about everyday life that are just bedazzling with all of their lovely photos. And my little blog? Well, this layout right here is probably the fanciest one yet for me. My "blog title" is really something I only put because my brain couldn't come up with anything else even slightly creative. I still haven't figured out how to put pictures on here. Or how to get my picture and title at the top to look right. Or how to get the fonts I want. See what I mean? Yes, I've got a long ways to go.

Maybe I should just have one of my blogger friends come over sometime and give me a blogging tutorial. Because I sure can't seem to figure it out on my own. :)

Well, I LOVE your blogs. Each one of yours is worth about 10 of the little cutesie ones in my book, cause I always connect with what you're saying. = ) I was definitely "wowed" when I looked today- that header picture is AMAAAZING. I feel refreshed just looking at it!

Just to let you know that I look forward to any post you put here now matter how inadequate you feel. I love the change I found today. It reminds me of the picture of you, Jeremy and Emma that you put on your Christmas card a couple of years ago... Mmmmmmm I can smell Fall in the air. Oh my, did I say Christmas?? It will be here before you know it. Love to All
