I’ve been busy, over the last couple of days, tweaking our blog and trying to make it more interactive. I’ve added quite a few new things, and hopefully they’ll help make your visit here a bit more enjoyable if you catch me between posts. : )

New features on the main page:

My Twitter Feed (So you can see what I’m up to when I’m too busy for a full blog post.)

Top Commenters (My groupies. Just kidding!)

Recent Comments (So you can see who’s been talking about what)

Random Posts (Refreshes every time you refresh the page, so you can always find something to read!)

My Facebook Badge (the top pic takes you to my Facebook profile; the bottom pic takes you to my albums on Facebook, OR you can view my photo albums IN the widget,!)

more links in the blogroll (sites we visit, our other sites, and friend and family sites)

I TRIED to add an RSS feed, but I keep getting an error message when I try to validate our site. I have inquiries in on a couple of different forums, so hopefully that issue will be resolved soon. Wish me luck!

On the individual post pages:

Related Posts (in case you want to read more!)

Comment Luv (will pull your most recent post and append it to your comment whenever you leave one!)

Also, I’ve added a new “Cast of Characters” page for pics of those we write about all the time. (Right now that’s just us, and Del and Colleen, but I plan to add more pics as I figure out where I have them stored.) : )

If I’ve missed anything that you think might make the site more enjoyable, please let me know and I’ll do my best to make it happen.

Let me know what you think!
