Spring Cleaning Blog-Style
I know it looks almost exactly the same on the outside, but Life Nurturing Education has moved. Months ago I helped some friends set up a blog, then another friend, and another…all the while planning for this place to join them.

After procrastinating longer than I care to admit, I finally switched everything over. I’m still scrubbing cupboards and straightening pictures. Literally, the pictures.
My images were not imported on my first attempt. Deckards absent from their own chronicle. Two years worth of pictures vanished, and by their absence I sensed how much this blog contains. I don’t write every day, but life is made of moments. If I capture a few here and there, doesn’t it give more meaning to the others?
Looking back I see with different eyes, a different heart. The moments of frustration give way to a smile. I see where we are now, the progress made. I see how quickly my children are growing. I remember starts and sputters, dreams and goals.
And it pulls me back to writing some more.
Whew! Glad it worked out. And I appreciate all your work to move my blog too. You rock!
Anna-Marie,
I still have some work to do (like figuring out why my sidebar is broken), but yes, I was relieved to get all my images back. So many people have helped me, I’m glad I can pass the favor onto others.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out my File Folders links post. I used to use it all the time when the kids were littles (the youngest is now 11), and frankly I had forgotten about it too, until that post on THL.
Your blog looks great, and I really like it! Keep up the good work!
So, where are you if you aren’t here? Do you mean that you don’t blog at this site anymore? I’m confused!! :-)
Jennifer,
I’m sorry I didn’t make that very clear. I have every intention to continue blogging here.
The only difference is “here” is on a different server, and I am now completely out on my own. Before my blog was hosted with a few others by a wonderful homeschool mom who designs websites once in awhile. She kept my blog up-to-date and helped me take my first steps into self-hosting. It was too much for me to learn all at once.
I’m so thankful for all the help I’ve received during the past two years of blogging! I didn’t realize how much there is to it when I started. I’ve enjoyed learning, but managing blogs and writing are definitely two separate things. Whew!
