Madeja look, madeja look!
I am a creature of habit…I resist change. DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS FOR ME TO WRITE A POST IN A FOREIGN LAND??? I feel like a fish outta water…or like I need to curl up in the fetal position with one thumb in my mouth and the other hand clutching my blankie….or that you CAN forget how to ride a bicycle after all. I am so off-balance, I can hardly think. Did someone rearrange the letters on my keyboard??
Just when I kinda sorta knew all the ins & outs of Blogger, a thousand straws not only broke the camel’s back, they knocked that sucka off his feet. I’m not quite sure what I think of TypePad yet, although my 30-day trial is long over (WHAT was I thinking beginning a trial at Thanksgiving…with Christmas around the corner, kids out of school, lots of time on the road, etc. ad nauseum?!). I also had a trial going with Squarespace but chose TP instead, mainly because I know a lot more bloggers who can answer TP questions than I do SS users.
I wonder what the odds were of me being the next person to leave Blogger…who thought Susan or Pamela would be next?
So, chop-chop, change your Bloglines (or whatever reader you use) subscription RIGHT NOW to Pensieve’s new address or bookmark this page in your Faves. Tell your friends. Tell your neighbors. Tell the postman–he always rings twice (see? I’m losing it!).
Ahhh, nekkid foot pictures…the only thing that can make me feel better right now. That, and my next cup of coffee.
Stay tuned for more riveting posts from my Pensieve to yours…
Well, *I* like TP. And, should you need any help, Blogging Basics 101 is right here to help! 😉 Shameless plug. Hanging my head in pseudo shame.
I have those same sandals in blue and LOVE them. L-O-V-E love them.
BTW, I’m assuming you’ll be transferring you’re beautiful design over, right? RIGHT?!?
Ummm….how do I do that, Chilihead??? Nice to know we’re in the same “f a s h i o n” league (notice I used that word very loosely!) :).
Hey, congrats on the move. A number of my favorite blogs have made the move to TypePad and none have ever looked back.
Now to change my bookmark… and done!
Hey…what is this? New Year, new blog page???? And what about all the design?? sigh…ok, off to change the link…
hehehe
looks good.
Like the intro. . .it’s so, well, pensieve. . .
ET TU, ROBIN? Say it ain’t so!
You do realize that I’m going to have to switch now, too, don’t you? Well, since all the cool kids are doin’ it and all.
Pamela, want to come with me?
OH – You are even more trickier than I was. heh heh heh .
Welcome to Typepad!!!! Looks awesome! Have fun –
and if you have any technical questions – ask Pete. (hee hee)
am going to miss your swirling mocha cup and pretty blue….but maybe you can figure out how to get it on the header!!!
I almost didn’t come here, after all you told me not to click the link! But then I thought “hey, she told me not to click the link” so here I am.
You finally have a blog that loads in minutes not hours (I know, its my problem that I have dial up).
Getting your old ‘slow to load’ masthead across isn’t too hard if you don’t have the basic account. If you cheaped out like me it can still be done but is a little trickier.
Anyway, welcome to TP.
Oh fine then. Make me change my template just two days after linking you! **sigh**
Changlings all of you! You Blogger emigrant types you!
;^P
Nan
Ahhhh! I feel so much better for having stopped by! I trust that all is well with you and yours. Happy New Year to the entire crew!
blessings,
Chris
Go girl!
I went to bloglines and I think I was your first subscriber
Finally I’m first at something
I messed around with a wordpress blog for several weeks. And then the holidays came along — and I couldn’t figure out what I wanted to do.
I’m still undecided.
JC, glad you stopped by. Will you get back to your regular writing schedule next week?
Claudia, it’s been a l o n g time coming, but the truth is, during my “trial” period, the only thing I “tried” was moving my old posts…unsuccessfully (definitely a TRIAL). I decided to give up on THAT part and just start posting. The rest will come, I’m sure :/.
Kim, is that a veiled or back-handed compliment??? 🙂
Susan, I will still post to you in Blogger…lol, I DID feel like I betrayed you and P, isn’t that silly? Come on over, we’ll learn (and commiserate) together :).
Karmyn, I thought it was totally OBVIOUS. How’d you change your header??
WT, you were who I had in mind when I said “Don’t click the link”, hehe. All I know is I’m glad you’re around to ask questions :/…and note, when I finally do, that means I have already pulled out all my hair, more Telly Savalas than Delta Burke.
Nan…..sowry :). I’m just glad you found me here again. Next week I get back to blog “normal”, w/e THAT is…!
Pamela, well now, I guess no one else is very obedient. You win the prize!!! (thanks, sweets) For the record, I’m still undecided, too. All I know how to do is post, and not very well at that :/. Durn, I’m an old dog. New tricks scare the snot outta me!
Glad to see you made the move. Surprised you didn’t do WordPress.
If you need any help moving your template over, let me know and I’d be happy to help.
So… does this mean I should start visiting here now? And will you be moving your older posts over?
YEAH!! I really almost didn’t click the link. 🙂 So glad you have joined us over here on TP. You will love it, really.
You’re gorgeous, darling. Love what you’ve done with the new place;))
Going to Bloglines now…
Since I had to type on an Egyptian keyboard, nothing bothers me any more ! Is there a big difference with typepad ? Is it free, I am stingy and don’t want to pay that other people have the privilege to read me !
By the way where are the blogging chicks ? Am I the only chicken ?
So you are switching? Just let me know…I will up-date my linkage to you…but then again – you might change your mind *wink*
Grrrr, this is the SECOND time I’m leaving this. I commented YESTERDAY to y’all, but I guess I didn’t word verify or something b/c it’s gone.
Does anyone miss my feet besides me?? I like the avatars that go with your names…:/.
Anyway…..my comment….
I realize I missed welcoming Chris and Nancy, I guess that has to do with getting used to the differences in how TypePad comments “look”…I just missed y’all in my response.
SOOO, A BIG OL’ PENSIEVE “WELCOME” TO THE NEW PLACE!!
Mike, you, Kelly (PTT) and Susie (BBD) are the only three I “know” with WP…which didn’t preclude me from trying it, but I was already into a TP and SS trial, a third one was more than my tiny brain could handle (lol). Thanks for the offer for help, OF COURSE I want this to look more like “me”, so you might end up regretting that offer ;).
Julie, I guess I should make that link a little more clear. Yeah, I know lots of “y’all” have liked TP, I’m still not sure…
Kelly, thanks, sweets, but….I was going for snow, not sure the ornaments really fit anymore…I’ll tinker with that later :).
Gattina, WHOA!! Wow, sounds Greek to me;). Nope, TP isn’t free, but it starts at under 5 bucks/month and I get waaaayyyy more pleasure out of it than that :). Nope, there are lots of chicks in the Pensieve, you don’t recognize them???? (I’ll figure out how to bring the blogroll over later. Guess I should update my new URL with Michele–thanks for the reminder to do so!).
Iris, I TOTALLY might change my mind. For the time being, I’m here. Until I get restless;). (I gotta add my “Sting” and other loveys…and will do so as soon as I figure it out :/.)
Hi Dan, what a way to start the new year:). GLAD you stumbled onto this blog…it might just be the BEST one you’ve ever found!
Comments where evah, when evah I always say ;).
