Rabbit trails

"Well, if you can't tell that my blog has been updated, then you must be blind.  And if that's the case, you probably aren't reading my blog at all. In fact, you can't even read *this* sentence, unless you have a website reader.  Do they have those?  That's a good idea if they don't."
If you have never talked to me in person before, that is what I sound like.  Rabbit trails and random ideas.
Another rabbit trail...I found this piece of bread that
looked just like a bunny!

Anyway, my blog looks different.

I thought about changing my blog a little while ago and decided to do so yesterday.  I've worked on the new design for about four hours now, and I think Amos has worked on it for an hour, too.  He's very good with computers, especially with the help of google.  Ahhhhh, google.  What would we do without you?
Amos recently redesigned his own blog.  Today I saw part of a post that he is writing, and I am eager to read it, whenever he finishes it. Amos was writing about a chapter of Nehemiah that our pastor covered a few weeks ago.  It should be good!

So, there are some changes to my blog, and I thought I would explain them.

  • I decided to go with a blue theme because I like blue.  I also like green.  The blue, green, white, and dark gray all look good together, so that is my color scheme!
  • Amos helped me with the images.  He put the pictures in the blog title together into a collage.  I took each of these pictures on different trips to foreign countries.  I'll explain the pictures in another post.  He also helped me with the background image.  He found the point in the html text where I could paste my own picture.  I kept pasting pictures, trying to find one that worked.  I finally cropped a picture that I had taken in India and pasted away!  It looked really good on my computer, but Amos couldn't see it on his.  He fixed the photo for me, I pasted it one more time, and it's all good!
  • I split up my links into two side bars because I liked the look, plus I didn't like having one really long side bar.
  • I made the posting area wider.
I hope you like the changes!  And if you are blind and your website reader is dictating this post to you, I hope that you can visualize my blog and that you like it, too. ;)
