Pin It The fact that I’m now posting to “Get Off Your Butt and WRITE” . . . almost seems like a miracle to me. I know, it’s just a blog, but moving files from Blogger to WordPress.Org is a daunting process, for someone who knows absolutely NOTHING about hosting your own website!
I’ve learned some big lessons over the weekend. Here’s a run down of happenings . . . and deleted happenings!
-
Out of Blogger picture space . . . uggg What to do, What to do?
-
Make a change for the better. Dig right in.
-
It’s not exactly an easy process to switch to another Blog Platform. It takes some learning first.
-
WordPress. Com and WordPress.Org are NOT the same thing.
-
If you would like to know the difference, CONTACT ME.
-
I am using WordPress.Org.
-
You must find a host – Bluehost is a wonderful host . . . they saved me from Total Blog deletion . . . no kidding here!
-
Once you register your own Domain name, you must install software . . . or it’s empty.
-
Find the right Software you need to use.
-
Still not done . . . install your Template.
-
Try to find your way around your new home.
-
Import Blog from Blogger to new home. Yikes.
-
Frustration, Patience Jonna.
-
You are not to OLD to learn new things.
-
Yes you are . . . NO you are not!
-
Up and running, and feeling a little cocky here.
-
Move your other Blog – “Chocolate” to a new domain.
-
New Domain name though – “Get Off Your Butt and WRITE.
-
Download software – new template. Back to Bluehost to confirm.
-
Accidentally hit wrong button, and DELETE entire: Get Off Your Butt and BAKE! website.
-
Yes I did.
-
Blood drains from entire body, sick, sick, sick . . . sick some more.
-
Think Jonna think. When all else fails call Bluehost. Explain how dumb you are.
Bluehost comes to my rescue . . . they didn’t even make me feel like a newbie . . . EXCELLENT TECHNICAL SUPPORT!
I should be cleaning right now, and will be in just a few more minutes. I changed my personal blog name, cuz it goes along with my baking theme. It’s simply a good reminder for me to Journal more, and take note of daily happenings. I hope you come back often, as I intend to be a bit more prompt posting on this Get Off Your Butt and WRITE site!
Remember that I’m easy to find: http://justgetoffyourbuttandbake.com and now http://justgetoffyourbuttandwrite.com
I’ll be back after I clean my house….ugg

Have you ever considered making your blog into a book and SELLING it?! I would (hands down!) buy it in a heart beat! It would save me so much paper and ink. Plus the running back and forth from the kitchen to the computer desk.
Just sayin’!
I have become a cooking genious thanks to you!
