Getting Blogger to work with the iPad.

Sprite, almost 3, with her first sewing machine


I know that you all are waiting with bated breath to see if I ever finish the denim skirt (it is, almost) but I have been testing and testing to find a good solution to blogging with the iPad. I have tried Blogger (app only has an iPhone version -- not user friendly) and BlogPress (keeps crashing). So far, the best thing is to use the Edit HTML option in the old Blogger interface. That doesn't crash and lets me add pictures from my existing Picturetrail account. I could switch photo sites, but Picturetrail has hundreds of my pictures and I have over 5 years of blog entries that I don't particularly want to update with new URLs. The above pic is an oldie, but cutie that I picked out randomly to try the picture capabilities. Click on it to see a larger version.

So I am back to square one with the iPad blogging. But it is working, so I'm good.

DH has been playing with his new toy, a new iPhone 4S. Siri has been most fun and he has been asking it the most ridiculous questions he can come up with just to get the funniest answers. My favoriate so far:

DH: Knock, knock.
Siri: Who is there? Tracy. Tracy Who. Tracy, I don't do knock knock jokes.

The denim skirt is almost done. I still need to add the back pockets which we have decided to embroider with butterflies to match the fabric and the belt loops. However, Sprite couldn't wait and wore it to a birthday party today. Hopefully, I can finish it tomorrow after church and spend some time cleaning my sewing room for the next project.
