Whew! I just changed the looks of my blog because I wanted something more creative. It took some doing believe me since I have limited computer skills. But I succeeded in changing my blog to something more jazzy. I got the website from a book on online journaling yesterday. I just wish that I had some of the design talent that I have seen in other people. One of the books that I looked at related the story of her husband telling her he wished that he had an interesting life to fill a journal with and she told him-everyone's life has meaning and interest. Don't use other people as a yardstick for your own creative efforts. This really hit home to me because years ago, when I was a teenager I saw scrapbooks for sale at Woolworth's for 79 cents.(this was in the 50's). I had never seen a scrapbook that someone had made so I had no idea what to include. My sister Bernice made one which was really cute and I wished that she had saved it but she got tired of it and threw it out. Her children would have gotten a kick out of reading it. I had some things from high school that I had saved which I could use now in a scrapbook but unfortunately, I threw all the elements out. What was I thinking.
