At the end of the day my biggest goal for my blog is to bring value to my readers with each article I write.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Like you, I take the weekends off from blogging, and am liking the structure that brings to the writing side of things. I NEED a new profile pic in the worst way - do.not.love.mine at all! And I want to give my blog a cleaner look... create a &amp;#39;grab my button&amp;#39;, all that stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am on WordPress, but I often like the look of Blogger sites better. I don&amp;#39;t experience the amount of technical issues I so often read about with Blogger. In fact, I rarely have technical problems, and I&amp;#39;m lucky to have a hubby who deals with all that for me anyway. And now with this whole Google Friend Connect thing, it&amp;#39;s hard to say what the best way is to go. Some of the bigger bloggers out there have switched to WordPress from Blogger, so I think it comes down to how much effort you want to put into making a change vs. how much value you will get out of the change. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will be right in stride with you through the year working away on goals!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a great day :-)</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2332616370008616251/8500285604238968775/comments/default/5556139393205108484'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2332616370008616251/8500285604238968775/comments/default/5556139393205108484'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.decoradventures.com/2012/01/blog-goals-2012.html?showComment=1327337067706#c5556139393205108484' title=''/><author><name>Sheila @SZInteriors</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/11044533456759356173</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='12848149016102491233'/><gd:image xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/--o8PmYQWRWE/Tnp2cjRETeI/AAAAAAAAAB8/tEyP_1j0Qjg/s220/Sheila%2B-%2BSquare%2Bfor%2BAvatar.png'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.decoradventures.com/2012/01/blog-goals-2012.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2332616370008616251.post-8500285604238968775' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2332616370008616251/posts/default/8500285604238968775' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='blogger.itemClass' value='pid-926694445'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2332616370008616251.post-2406325418142631408</id><published>2012-01-23T11:00:47.088-05:00</published><updated>2012-01-23T11:00:47.088-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Nice goals!
