Hi all!
Well, I finally did it.  I now have a blog.   :dance:
Such as it is, I'm still learning  ..Not too long ago I didn't even know what a blog was.   
So, I'd like to add, and be added to other teddy bear blogs.
How do I do this?  I have it set up, but it's sitting there empty.  I'd love to add your blogs.
I'm a bit clueless.  Help, help..
Thanks!!!
:hug:

Hi Dances! I think there is supposed to be a link where somone can click if they want to follow your blog. You can add it to your page by editing in the format section (I believe that's where it is). I would LOVE to follow your blog. I just don't know where to click to have that happen.

I just recently also started a blog. And it is a big stretch for me to put myself out there like this. If you check out my blog, you will see an area where it asks you to click if you want to follow this blog. And, as you can see there are no followers yet 

So, if you like, you can add yourself to my blog by clicking on the part that asks you to be a follower, and I will do the same when you set up that part on yours.

This is fun stuff!!        Vicki

Vicki, thanks for the help!  I've added a "Follow Me List" to my blog.  :dance:   And I've added myself to yours!
I really like your blog.  Looks like you put a lot of thought and work into it, and it shows!!! 
Now to figure out how to do the "blog list" thing.

Hello Ladies :)

I've added both of you to my follow list if that is OK.  I'm fairly new to blogging because of the time it can take away from other interests, but have been a writer for many years so I've succombed to the urge of the Internet written word! I don't just talk about teddys on my blog (I actually have two started to follow different interests) but it will be fun to follow your creativity.

Thanks for the heads-up

It IS addictive!
Peace,
Sudey

You're welcome, Vicki!  I think listing other's blogs and following blogs is great, for all of us.  Hope more of you TTer's can join us!
I finally figured out the Blog List thingy and added it.  Thanks, Patty!
Blogspot is really great.  But how can they offer such a wonderful service ..for free?  Simply amazing! 
Hugs  :hug: to all!

Hi Laura,

Your blog is looking really good     I've added myself as a follower on your blog and I've added you to my blog list on my blog 

Sudey: I've also added myself as a follower on your blog 

Vicki: I can't seem to add myself as a follower on your blog, not sure what's wrong there but I'll keep trying 

Hugs

Just added you Janice and have been enjoying your blog...especiailly the great design!

I've been communicating on the Internet since 1992 and am always a bit astonished at how the design process has progressed! Trying now to catch-up a bit:)

Good for you for going back to the University. As "mature" (cough cough) as I am, there are still so many things to learn in this world.

Thanks for adding me and I hope this "Blog Hug" can continue to grow!

Peace,
Sudey

This Blogging can be quite addictive as well as good networking. Really gives you a chance to broaden your world without all the expense of air travel :)
