This blog is very exciting so there is an excessive number of people waiting to join.

I have overheard many people talking about this mooney/maloney blog. It was started by an accomplished designer and has been contributed to by a top level executive secretary as well as a person who communicates primarily with a donkey. If that aint enough, we are excitedly awaiting contributions from an A student recently returned from Australia, a top notch athletic student, and a highly comedic biotechnology manager. Run, don't walk, to the nearest computer to submit your entry!

Oh My - I do believe there is some confusion with this blog!

In response to Judie - yes you can change the font, color in the text of your post. If you wish to get any fancier than that you should direct your inquiries to Leah Mooney who is the creative director of this blog.

Tricia has not yet published a post - the tutorial was from Leah. I think once Sarah gets settled and maybe if Leah emails her with the directions to get on the blog then it should be an interesting blog. It takes time to get everyone up to speed. We shall try to help Tricia with getting on the blog - she doesn't have a working computer from home and she is a very busy lady at work.

Have a great weekend - and an extra day off if you celebrate President's Day on Monday!

Trisha, one question. P.S. Thanks for the tutorial!

Trisha, happy that you have joined the blog.

One question: How to put the inserted pics into

the Archive section on the right?

Also, this may be dumb but is there anyway to choose

a less conservative type face? They are all boring.

Thanks, Judie

Blog Tutorial

First off after going to the website mooneymaloney.blogspot.com you click sign in in the upper right hand corner.  By doing this it will allow you to post a blog entry.

 

Next you can do two things…

 

One: Read through all of the posts…there are about 15 to a page and at the bottom you can go back in history to read other blog entries. 

 

If you like what you read or have something to say you can click on the comments link to post a comment to the entry.  The comments link is at the bottom of every entry.  Don’t forget to look at the comments to all the posts!!

 

Second:  You can go to the top right hand corner and click New Post to post your own blog entry.

 

Once getting to this New Post page you first enter a title for your post that will show up in orange on the main page.

 

Then you enter your post under that.

Other features for the post are above the post entry field.  You can choose bold, underline ect., then you can also choose to insert a picture which is the icon the looks like a landscape.  Just follow the directions after that to post a picture with your blog entry.

 

When you are finished writing you can then click publish post, which is at the bottom of the page on the left.  It is the orange button.

It will tell you that your blog has been successfully posted and you can click view blog to see what you have written.  At any time you can go back to your blog and edit it.

Hope this helps Trisha!

Pearly wants to wish everyone a very

happy Valentines Day!

Debbie, don't know if they got along, probably not. Cold and snowy here for two weeks. I will talk with you to much greater length later.

Take care not to fall. Judie

Fabulous Looking Ladies!

Judie - love the photo of the two grandmothers - do we know if the two mother got along in an in-law kind of way? It would be interesting to have a little background on these two ladies. Was one really sweet and nice and the other uptight/strict?

It is 55 degrees here today - unheard of since the fall. Yesterday I was walking around in boots, hats, and a coat (still fearful of falling on the ice) and today no coat, beautiful and I just saw on Boston.com that some areas might get a thunderstorm tonight.

I am off to curves to work until 8 pm and then drive home (hopefully before the storm).

Remember these well dressed people?

Thank you Debbie! Just learning how to scan, etc. I mistakingly cut our maternal grandfather out of the photo and will have to rescan at another date.

I just wanted to say thanks again for including me. Leah, kudos.

Love Judie

Welcome Judie!

Judie - its great that you have joined us bloggers! Leah and I contributed to a family blog last year with the Smith's - it was a way to keep everyone informed when my mother broke her hip and it was a great way to stay connected with Leah when she was in LA last year. Leah would post pictures of her trips on the west coast - it was fun to view them. We hope that Sarah will post some pictures of Australia. Of course, the huge wild fires are quite scary in Australia - but Leah informs me that Sarah is no where near the fires! Now we are just waiting to hear from Trish/Tom and Andy to participate in our blog. Of course, from our blogging experience, women rule the blog and the men do not participate very often. I guess blogging is a bit to frilly for the men!

Happy Valentine's Day to everyone! Judie - I have mailed you a box - you should be receiving something within the next week!

Love, Debbie

Thanks so much for inviting me. I feel special now!

This is very exciting being part of a new technology. I am going to write longer the next time, but now have to cook dinner. Sarah went to Australia? Wow, what an experience. Look forward to pics and travel stories, particularly animals indigenous to that country. Talk to you all soon. Judie

Hello Sarah!

We have been thinking about you during your lonnnnnng travel! Hope you can check out the post and we will certainly be checking here. I hope Andy gets on this blog once in a while and we can chat with him also!

Thanks Leah for making this happen!

Debbie

From Beantown to the Outback

So welcome to the Mooney/Maloney blog! Hopefully Sarah can get on here and update us with her new adventures and maybe post a picture or two. If you have any questions about how to post just let me know. Basically you just select new post in the upper right hand corner. You write your little message and click publish post in the bottom left corner. To get to the blog you just have to type in http://mooneymaloney.blogspot.com and our blog will come right up. So post whatever you want whenever you want!

Sarah has probably landed by now. I hope the flight wasn't too horrible! I am sure she will love every minute of experiencing a new place. Hope we can hear from her soon!
