I did it! Look how pretty!

In keeping with this crappy year, Blogger decided to jerk me around for the last time. In a saga that I only barely understand and is far too technical for most of us to stay interested in, along with Blogger’s outages and post eating, it’s partnership with Google led to me falling into a black hole of the internet where Google kept trying to divide me into two accounts and then picked one and locked me out of the other. When the entire internet is run by Google, and Google hates your guts, the internet is not a very cooperative place.

So after nearly eight years, I finally packed up and stormed off in a huff, trying not to think too hard about the broken links I left behind. I love WordPress, love my pretty new site that I have total control over (Bwah ha ha ha ha), I did not so much love the full week of work and hours and hours of phone calls with tech support.

But it’s done. And I’m happy. If any of you notice anything wonky in your feed, please give a shout. Also, I added the Google Friend Connect widget because sponsors want to see numbers. Please consider joining up. I feel naked with no friends in there!

Welcome to my new home.

P.S. GoDaddy, seeing as how you are the Domain guys? You may want to walk your tech guys through the process. Took three tries.

  1. Wow! Loads MUCH faster! I have NOOO idea how I found your blog, as I am an art teacher, but it continues to stay on my list of favs!!!! You are a gifted writer, keep going!

  2. Hi! I love the new look! I know nothing about blogging, but it looks beautiful from here! I clicked over from my reader to friend connect on Google, but it's not showing up for me. I see a heading that says 'Come Join Up!' – but it's empty. Is that where it's supposed to be?

    1. Thanks Deb! Try refreshing. My feeds went all wonky so I had to do a total reinstall today. I might not have gotten that far before you came over.
