I've looked and haven't yet figured out how I did that. I'll try to remember to look again, tomorrow. It seems like it should be under the "comments" portion of "settings", but I don't see it at the moment and I'm about to fall on my face. I'll dash over to your blog if I figure it out, tomorrow. :)Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-83455830373558545822008-08-25T21:46:00.000-05:002008-08-25T21:46:00.000-05:00Suzanne,To post-date, you have to first publish a ...Suzanne,<BR/><BR/>To post-date, you have to first publish a post under the current date and then edit it and change the date to the future. So, when I put up my current sticky post on the Matrimony contest, I published it on the day I wrote it then immediately hit "edit post" button and changed the date to August 26. You can't just publish with a future date, anymore (if you do, a post will show up on your dashboard as "pending" and won't appear on your blog till that date), although Blogger used to let you do so. They've just recently added the extra step. <BR/><BR/>I'm not so hot with computer stuff; I get a lot of help from friends. Nat of In Spring it is the Dawn is my main go-to person when I'm baffled. She kindly taught me the new sticky-post method. :)Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-41461967818839750252008-08-25T20:16:00.000-05:002008-08-25T20:16:00.000-05:00Totally off the subject...how do you 1) post ahead...Totally off the subject...how do you 1) post ahead of the date on blogger.com? I haven't figured out how to drip yet. Unless I've really lost it (always a possibility)...it's the 25th today). And 2) how do you change that little "brilliant remark" under comments? Couldn't figure that out, either.<BR/><BR/>You should add computer genius to your profile. ~SuzanneSuzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14134027864904228982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-23031855491095664612008-08-24T16:47:00.000-05:002008-08-24T16:47:00.000-05:00The cover makes me think of father daughter dances...The cover makes me think of father daughter dances, because the one pair looks small.

It seems small because it’s on a slant so it’s probably larger than it appears. I love that blue shade on that shoe! As for my interpretation, it’s a spin-off of Laura’s comment.

The two shoes are better, but either he's a giant or she has the smallest feet around. <BR/><BR/>The book sounds interesting, especially since I just celebrated 37 years with my BF/WH. I can identify with the cross culture aspect. While we're both Christian, he is Catholic raised in Hawaii and I'm Protestant raised by Midwest parents in California - two totally different worlds!PamelaHDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03370687054465192662noreply@blogger.com
