Mel - Just Do it Blog

Hi - I'm Mel. This is my first ever blogger post. I attended a talk from Jill Ball about " Beaut  Blogs" -- As a first-timer to the 15th Australasian Congress on Genealogy and Heraldry  in Sydney,  it was my first session on the first day.  Afterwards I couldn't stop thinking about it. I have wanted to do a blog for a long time ....  but with most things I say to myself - "I'll do it later" - then get too busy, convince myself it will be too hard, or just forget... This time I said to myself "Mel -  JUST DO IT  " Well, I have to admit -- first time, I just couldn't get it to work out the way I wanted (using free Wordpress), so after some advice from Jill, I tried with free Blogger instead.  Jill suggested using WikiHow to guide me. So I'm not saying that I have a "Beaut Blog" (yet) but  now  I've started a blog and I think that I can build on this...  more things to try from the Congress coming up soon.
