Who Else Has Started A New Blog Recently?

amandajane · 01-06-2008, 04:02 PM

I'm thinking maybe it would be good if we could all help each other? We could visit each other's blogs, read and add comments. Does that sound reasonable or is it not a good idea? Sorry, I'm completely new to blogging so I'm sticking my head out here, lol.

What's the link to your blog Amanda? I'll come by and visit!

I have two blogs but they're not new.

The first one is An Unschooling Life which chronicles our unschooling journey. The other one is Forever Parents which is the blog for a website I run for adoptive and waiting parents. I also have a simple living/frugal blog but I had to put it on hold for a while. When I get it back up and running, I'll share the link.

Cool :0) I've just added a signature so hopefully it will work. I've never heard of unschooling, sounds interesting. I'll go over and check it out.

Good luck with the blog Amanda.

Although I don't have one, as a blog reader I can tell you that I very frequently go to a blog just because I liked what that person said in a comment on a popular blog I frequent. So don't worry about the deal stuff with other blogs, they'll probably return the favour if they like what they see

.

Thanks Gootsy :0) I'm so new to this, it's great to hear feedback.

Joanne - cool! homeschooling, I get it now :0) what a great site. I'll be sending someone else I know over, she's homeschooling too. She'll love it.

Amanda...I just subscribed to your feed and also left a comment. Is that picture at the top something that you baked? It looks yummy.

Thanks Joanne *dashes over to site* :0)

The photo is a close up of the muffins I made. I was going to take a photo of some coins but then realised I didn't have any, lol.

Mine is about a month old now. I'm a little nervous about this whole blogging thing, because my last blog died a slow and painful death. But the new blog is more focused, so hopefully it will be around a year from now.

Joanne · 01-06-2008, 09:33 PM

I bet those muffins tasted as good as they looked.

Honest Dollar...I just subscribed to your blogs feed.

Honest Dollar - your blog looks great, really interesting. I've subscribed too, now I've figured out the google feedreader.

Thanks Joanne :0)
