What's the Deal with Blogger

I just noticed that I have reached the 200 post mark for this blog.  That is a lot of posts, especially when one considers how short many of the first posts were.  Barely a paragraph or so of text.  I can't be sure if this was the first or second of my blogs.  Whichever the other one was, I no longer post regularly for it.  The same can be said of my third blog, the literary one.  After I finished with my novella, or whatever I decide to make of it, I couldn't come up with any good ideas to continue it.  Now, there is only this one left.  I don't even feel really like much to write anything today.  In fact, I didn't come up with an idea for this post until I noticed I had reached 200 posts.  Since I started this blog, Blogger has changed greatly.  For instance, the interface has recently been changed.  I'm still getting used to how to deal with the new formatting features.  Most of them are the same, but they still feel different.  I don't think I have the large range of colors for text and backgrounds I used to have.  Another thing missing is the Icon app.  For much of the time I had this blog, I wanted to create my own icon to show up when people looked for this blog.  I even dedicated posts with preliminary looks I created using Pages from my Mac.  It was okay, but I wanted something more.  It took awhile to find an art app for free that I liked.  Then, I had to experiment with working with it.  Just as I started with getting a basic design for the icon for one of my other blogs, the update occurred and the Icon app feature was removed.  At least I can't seem to find it anymore.  Let's be honest.  I never really looked through all the possible features when I first set this blog up.  I didn't own a computer yet, so I was limited in both time and flexibility with what I could do.  Even after I got my Mac, I rarely went back to see what all I could now do.  I'm not sure what else has been changed that I have now missed out on. Even the counter that my Mac is on is getting uneven, causing me problems as I type.  I guess I should quit today's post while I still can.  I'm about an hour behind schedule today, and I really need to catch up as soon as possible.  See you next week.
