Shoes I Wish I Had (with the exception of the heal, of course)

BTW,
Brace yourselves...for PINTEREST!!!  Whoop whoop!

My Veeeery Long Day

My day was long, hard, and sadly enough,
Not over yet.

1. VBS:
1. Class 1: Music!  Yah...dance moves
2. Class 2:  Games...yay....
3. Snack time (don't make me go into it!!!)
4. Class 3:  Bible...uh..kids, settle down....
5. Class 4:  AHHHH!!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!!!!
2. Had friends over!
1. Jumped trampoline
2. Spent time in attic
3. If I tell you, I'd have to kill you
4. Walked around
3. Piano
4. Dinner

And here I am.  Oh, yah, we also watched eureka too!  It's a cool sci fi series if you're looking for something new.  If you like Star Trek (maybe not Into Darkness, more like the series) then you would like eureka.

K, I'm out of here.  Buh-bye!

Outfit

I love my new outfit!

Blogging Crash Course No. 3

Day 3!!!  (Become a pro blogger)

Tip o' the Day: Post Often!
I know, I haven't been the best at doing this.  HOWEVER...the more often you post and the more consistent you are the more readers will check to see if you've posted because you're more likely to.  Make sense?

Lesson o' the Day:  Post Settings!

Remember yesterday I just ran out of steam to finish the post?  Well here's the rest of it.  :-)  Mmm...ok.  Post settings.

Excellent!  Ok, the photo above this line is the Post Settings bar.  Allow me...The Labels Tab is where you can assign certain labels to a post.  Handily enough, this can be used to locate a certain posts on your post list, help your readers find your posts, and sort out certain posts.  As soon as you type a label into the box it automatically saves it to your labels list.  All you have to do after that is just click on the ones you want (you can have multiple ones per post)

Next on the list: The Scheduling Tab.  This quite possibly may be the most helpful blogging tool ever.  Don't have time during the week to post?  Oh that's easy!  Just make seven posts and preschedule it here (it's fairly easy to figure out so I'll let you do that)

Skip the Permalink Tab, because you don't need that, the Location Tab!  Also a cool tool, but doesn't do much.  By clicking on this, you can search up where you are and type in the name at the bottom.  I never put in my actual location, just NJ for New Jersey.  (be careful!  the ' symbol comes out as ')

Finally, the Options Tab.  I don't use this much but some people might so lets take a look.  Reader Comments: allow/don't allow.  Compose mode:  something about HTML???  Line breaks:  Use <br> tag (the line break button) or press enter for line breaks.  That's all.

That's all I got for today folks!  Tomorrow: Settings 101

Blogging Crash Course No. 2

So here we are...
Day number two of Lessons for the Incurable Un-Techincal.  Also known as Blogging Crash Course 101.  So down to business.

Tip o' the Day:  Include a photo
Always try to keep a photo in each post.  It's not totally nessacary or anything but it sparks interest and it makes it easier to attract readers.

Lesson o' the Day:  Making a post
Hmm, funnily enough thats what I'm doing right now!  How ironic...anywho.  Ahem.  Ok.

This is the general overview of a new post page.  As you might have guested, the big white square is where you type.  The line of icons at the top is the tool bar.  Above that is the POST TITLE.  This is a very important tool.  Remember that post list?  If you do all your posts the same title, or don't give them a title, then you don't have anyway to know what is what!

More about the tool bar.

Ok, first two icons (from left to right, with uses).  Undo, Redo.  Font. Size.  Title Type (I have no idea).  Bold.  Italics. Underline. Strikethrough. Font Color.  Highlight.  Now from there on things get more complicated.  A link will take you some where else (in this case, the get your own blog page)  Then there's the photo menu, the video menu, and the page

Blogging Crash Course No. 1

Before You Start!
Read this: Get Your Own blog (last in line when you look at the link tabs at top of this page)  Very important.  Thanks!

K, we got that covered?  Let's start.

Tip o' the Day:
Keep it simple.  If you need to vent, vent, but in short keep your posts simple and, if you want, simple.  Some times just a title and a photo will do.

Lesson of the Day - The tool bar

This is your secret administrators and authors only page.  It's where all that tech magic happens.  K, down to business.  First things first.  The orange button in the top left corner takes you to you blogger account (more about that, not today).  To the right of that, the "new post" button, then the "view posts" button (takes you to screen just like above this), then the "view blog" button (pretty straight forward).  To the far left is your blogger account pic.  To the left column (going top to bottom):  New Post, Overview (basic overview of stats), Posts - •All, •Draft posts, •Published Posts, Pages (Later), Comments (the same), Google+, Stats, Earnings, Campaigns, Layout, Template, Settings.  Then of course, your post list.  That's really easy to figure out.

There's today's lesson!  Thanks for reading.
