Are you excited? I am definitely feeling the urge to IMPROVE THINGS.
Last time around, I worked on my newest blog, which, at the time, was Creative Moments. This time, in keeping with that tradition, I’m focusing on this blog, which is currently my newest.
I say “currently,” because, sadly, I’m one of those obsessive blog creators (lol).
So what I’ve decided to do for my starting gate post is make a list of things to do throughout the weekend. I may add things as I go. Then I will come back and cross things off the list.
1. Create landing pages – added Facebook page for this blog
2. Clean up sidebars; add things to sidebars
3. Clean up social network profiles
4. Visit blogging tips group
5. Visit other blogs: the ones hosting mini-challenges and get ideas for improvements there.
6. Create business cards.
7. Visit at least ten blogs that are new to me (mini-challenge)
8. Create cheat sheets with html codes, etc.
I know, a short list, but you can be sure that I’ll be adding to it.
So…ready, set, go!!
Good luck on getting everything done! My list is short too, only 8, but catching up on reviews is one that will take the most time.

Thanks, Vicki…good luck to you, too. Sometimes I think my short lists are a sign that I’m “out of touch” with the reality of what’s going on…but then, I always add things.

Do you prefer Blogger or wordpress?
White is so nice and clear.

So far, I’m liking this theme…but now I’m searching for a way to edit the post, and I’m not finding it! I have nine blogs here on Word Press, and this is the first theme that hasn’t had a way to edit a post!
I’m probably overlooking something…
As for Blogger vs. Word Press, there are things I like about each of them, which is why I’ve kept blogs on both sites.

Oh, thank you for the encouraging words, avisannschild. I think my tasks might have been too easy.
I just now finished adding another page, though, which showcases some links to other social networking sites that I belong to…and that took longer than I thought it would.

There’s something to be said for creating a manageable to-do list rather than one that you know you’ll never get through, though!

You’re so right, avisannschild…Probably so ingrained in me from all those training classes when I was a social worker—develop “achievable goals.”
