Blogging school

To whom it may concern:

I thought I would do a little tutorial for you on how to comment on the blog. I know it may seem a little intimidating to try something new, but you can do it. It is SO easy.

First, notice the bottom of this post there is something that says COMMENTS. Click on the comments section and it will bring up a new screen. Just type your comment in the "LEAVE A COMMENT" section. It doesn't have to be profound or funny. It doesn't even have to be nice--though I might cry a little if it is mean. What is most important is that you leave a comment! I love getting feedback.

Anyway, once you have typed your comment you have three ways of identifying yourself. First, if you have a Google email account or blog, you click on the circle next to GOOGLE/BLOGGER. Then you enter your email into the USER NAME space and your password in the PASSWORD space. Once that is done, just hit publish and your comment is on the way.

If you do not have a Google account, you can click on OTHER or ANONYMOUS. Use OTHER if you already have a web page that you are linked to. Enter your web page address and your name. If you do not have a web page, then include your name in the text of your comment and click on ANONYMOUS and the PUBLISH button when you are done.

See how easy it is. Okay Ellison family, there are NO MORE EXCUSES!

Great tutorial. Comments are truly the lifeline of a blog. Truly. Glad to meet you and thanks for being my sister's buddy way across the country. Next time you see her, tell her she looks fabulous from me. :)

I think I have the commenting thing down, but I thought I'd prove it by leaving one here! I love reading your blog- it's fun to hear about all that you've been up to, and your great sense of humor is often evident!

Who could say anything mean to you? I'll take care of them!!!! you are such a dear. (But - for a minute- I thought the tutorial was aimed at me!)-
Love You! and your sweet little family! Keep up those great blogs- I look forward to catching up every night. And thanks for the 'goody' bag- It really ment a lot to see that some one thought of me and Katy. She's doing really (Really) well. This was a good decision for her.

So, I figured that I was giving my comments in person... since that isn't good enough for you I will do my best to start "typing" what I think... we all know that I have an opinion:) Glad to know that you like when I share it...

Thanks for the blogg schooling. I just barely figured out how to get on your blog today. Aren't you proud! I'm going to have to make it a weekly habit, because I had some great laughs reading your entries and looking at your babies. Thanks for keeping me entertained! Love you!! -Paigers

I might have to copy and past your step-by-step directions. My family needs help with this!

So my comment for you is to say thanks for your comments on my blog -- especially the tips on how you solved your oven problem which might help with our dishwasher problem! Worth looking into, at any rate!

I appreciated your perspective on caring for the elderly. I love reading your blog.
