Where I've Been and Where I'm Going

Hello, everyone. For those of you who celebrate Thanksgiving, I hope you had a wonderful time yesterday. And for those of you that went Black Friday shopping today, you're nuts. :)  I spent my Black Friday playing Seasons, and I am loving it. It is definitely my favorite TS3 expansion pack.

My friends on Twitter know that I have been thinking about how I want to continue blogging. I love sharing with you what's going on in my game, but to be honest blogging had become a grind that I wasn't enjoying. I didn't want to give up blogging, but I desperately needed a way to make it fun again.

I've been playing around with Tumblr this week. For a long time, I really didn't understand Tumblr. I would even say it intimidated me, but now that I have tried it, I like it. Tumblr does have its limitations. As I discussed with my Twitter friends, it is easy for followers to miss posts on Tumblr. So, I am going to use Tumblr to post interesting pics I take in the game that might not fit the story line.

A couple of my friends also recommended WordPress. The funny thing is that WordPress intimidated me too, but for entirely different reasons. Still, I decided to try it out. I am in love. I like WordPress's editor far more than Blogger's. Linking pages together is a breeze, but what I love most about WordPress is the custom  menus. The menus give me more control over how my blog looks. I chose a template that gives my blog a newspaper feel. If you remember, my very first blog was written from the point of view of a gossip columnist. (Um, ignore that part about me not getting The Sims 3.)

So, I said all that to say I have moved to WordPress! This site will remain up, but I won't be updating it. I hope you will join me at the new site.I already have a few posts there. Take a look and please let me know what you think. Thank you for all the support you have given me. Your taking the time to read my blog means the world to me.

  1. I'm glad you've made a decision you're happy with! Good to know Wordpress's editor will not be a complete mystery to anyone who's used Blogger previously as well - just in case I ever want to switch myself. ;)

    1. Thanks, Carla, and thanks for your advice. I am very happy with WordPress. I don't think you would have any problem at all if you decided to move over there. The hardest part for me was deciding on a theme. There are so many to choose from.
