Standing alone indeed.

Love you Blogger, but jeebus it should not be this difficult.  When I originally converted my old blog to the new URL, I did so to preserve my current Blogger friends and Reader subscribers.  It's taken a year to build up the readership I had, and I sincerely appreciated every single person that added or favorited the old blog.  But since Blogger is awesome, the conversion destroyed the RSS feed and it no longer automatically updates to Reader.  So I had to basically delete the entire blog formerly-known-as-MeaganLikesIt and start over, which was almost physically painful.  I had a moment a few weeks ago when I thought I might be done with blogging, that I might want to step away for awhile - but having to scrap it and start from scratch more than showed me that this is not something I want to give up anytime soon.  Now that I've probably lost every single subscriber and reader I had accumulated since launching my married lady blog, it's been highly frustrating to convert things over.  Worth it, but really stinking annoying. 

I really appreciate your patience and this is a reminder that you most likely have to resubscribe in Reader again to make the feed appear.

  1. You didn't lose me! I'll make sure my reader list is updated so I can help build you up again :)

  2. You didn't lose me either!! Trust me, I know how frustrating it is having to start all over (as of yesterday, I've done it twice). I've stepped away a bunch of times, sometimes it's just too much to keep up with, but you do miss it when you think of something to share.

    PS - Your blogger still doesn't have an email associated with it (no-reply, etc), pop me an email to dancyny@gmail.com so I can invite you to my new blog. :)

  3. Blogger was being a TOTAL pain for me to try to add you back on my blog list the past couple days (even with the new link, it still kept reverting right back to the old one.) But it seems to work now, and I'm happy that I didn't lose you! And you definitely didn't lose me. :)
