If you are looking at anyone's post, over on the right hand side is the name of the poster and there are one or more icons underneath. One is a small square that says PM, this is for sending a private message. One is a small square with what looks like a globe in it, this is a link to their blog.

I never knew that about the blog link thing on the side....now to figure out how to get my globe...

And I used to blog about our school week weekly, now it is much more sporadic.

I do, it's very random stuff though. I'd like to start blogging about HOD when we start. Going to go figure out that button and add it.

Thanks for posting this! I tried to start a blog once in the past and never really got going with it. I think I'm going to start one now. I like the idea of blogging about every unit, and since we are in the middle of our first unit, now would be a great time to start! :D Now I need to read through some of all of YOUR blogs to see how "the pros" do it! :wink:

I normally do, but have gotten bogged down with other things. I will have to set aside a little time and get going on mine again. :D I love to read other blogs!! :D

If you want to check out past blogs I'd go to the Week in Review section and look at past weeks. Those posts are linked directly to that lesson so you can sift out the other day to day stuff we all blog about and go directly to how people blog HOD. :-)

Do you want to know the dumbest thing? I wanted to start a blog, I read many great ones, and thought I would start one mostly for far away family to share our journey. So I log in, yada, yada, and BAM! What to name it? I sat there....stumped I tells ya. No. Names. Come. It has to be creative! Reflective! Representational! Not already used. (that's the biggie) :shock:

So, I have no blog. :roll: Have you ever sat there wondering when a site asks you to name yourself and you're like "uuuhhhhhhhhh....????" I don't have a nickname or anything funny that anyone calls me (my name is Amy Johnson *yawn*).

One of my favorite HS mom blogs is: http://www.blueyonder.typepad.com/ I know her IRL and think her world is pretty great. When I grow up I want to be like her!

I think I will continue my journey to find a blog name that fits us and try to get one started. That's my new years resolution for the new school year! (so I have a few months...right?)

I never knew that about the globe button. How fun!

I've blogged about LHTH here:

I recently started blogging. I mostly blog once a week about our school week, but sometimes I blog other stuff. I never knew about the globe thing. I have tried to add it, but don't know if I did or not.
