LOVE IT. But first lemme tell you I have a few blogs...one cooking, one crafting, one book reviewy and one life. I think I might combine them. Thanks for the ideas!

I know it's been quite a while since you wrote this post, but if you're still doing it, I'd love if you stopped by my blog and took a look around!

I just cleaned up my blog when I realized I was "pet peeved" by my own side bar.<br /><br />I have always posted everything together. Good, bad, funny, etc. <br /><br />Question:<br /><br />should I have a lot of topics (labels), or just a few that I generalize everything into? Some blogs have a few, while others seem to have a different label for each post. You hit all my dislikes as well. I just cleaned up my blog when I realized I was "pet peeved" by my own side bar.

I have always posted everything together. Good, bad, funny, etc.

Question:

should I have a lot of topics (labels), or just a few that I generalize everything into? Some blogs have a few, while others seem to have a different label for each post.

UGH! I agree with putting all of your stuff in one place. I started a photoblog, but realized I didn't want to compartmentalize that part of me; it's just too big a part of what I am. I also did a design and everything for a homeschool blog (back before I started with HSBA), but never launched it. Well, you covered the big no-no for me: automatic music players. UGH!

Love all your insight. I have some work to do on my personal blog as well as my ministry one. Which, by the way, would love your evaluation and input on At The Well. I know you are a writer there, but would love any tips for what we can do to improve the ministry. Awesome tips Amy as usual! Love all your insight.

I usually have my speakers turned off, so the music doesn't bother me. <br /><br />When someone leaves a comment on my blog and I go to visit their blog, I usually get a profile page first. If they have multiple blogs listed, it can be difficult to find the blog I want. <br /><br />I keep two blogs, a private one and a public one. I wish I could keep just one, as it would be less work. However, I like to keep the kids' photos private at least for now. My public blog doesn't have much content, mostly just participating in memes. It's hard to find the right balance.

Sorry.<br />I am with you on the music...I don't like to open up a blog and have music or ANYTHING flashing at me....it makes me dizzy. I had music for a while...and it got very annoying when I had mine up working back and forth and then would pull up others to visit...and their music would clash with mine...so I took mine off.<br /><br />I love the new look you have going on. Peaceful is what I FEEL. AND I feel comfy when I am sitting and reading your words...nothing screams.<br /><br />I like that. Screaming I can't take.<br /><br />Now....I am a bit nervous...but I would LOVE your honest opinion. I need to work on making sure my blog is "personable"...encouraging...uplifting...etc.<br /><br />the new one for hormone issues http://thehormonalyears.wordpress.com<br />and my personal one that I use for devo's http://good-knights-news.blogspot.com and http://sistersoffaith.blogspot for me and my sister Aimee. WHICH Aimee doesn't write anymore...so really I should take that one down...BUT I really wish I had a combination blog ....I am hormonal Amy. I have no clue what I am doing today.<br /><br />Love you! I read this days ago….and forgot to comment. Sorry.

I decided I would love a blog evaluation for my personal blog. I just had it redesigned, but if it needs tweaking it's still early enough to do that.<br /><br />http://movingforward-amanda.blogspot.com LOL! Me again.
