I can’t believe I’m doing this.

March 5, 2008

Since July 2005, when Danielle created and set up a page for me, I have been writing on a Xanga page. Now, I know that some people think of Xanga as kind of high schoolish and juvenile, but it really worked for me. It was an easy platform for a non-technical person like myself to navigate. I got used to it quickly and have remained there ever since.

I have been toying with the idea of changing platforms, but have been nervous to do so, just because there are so many of you who read and comment (and don’t comment, and that’s fine too) that I didn’t want to lose any of you by changing locations. But… after Abraham gave me a little tutorial on WordPress, I’m going to press into this new challenge.

So you should know that I have a link to the right where you can access my old xanga page that contains life from July 2005-February 2008.

And note that I will now be posting here–http://thepipers.wordpress.com

    If you buy the “WordPress for Dummies” book I want to borrow it next! I still work in it for CHA but I make more mistakes than I can to acknowledge. Maybe it’s because I am turning 40 in a few weeks, gasp, when did that happen?
