I want to thank HSB tech support for getting back to me with my problem.  It seems I am not alone in my particular situation.  It appears that because my blog name and my user name are not the same,  you get sent to a blank page and not my blog. Therefore in order to view my blog and others like mine, you have to go through my profile.  HSB is moving to a new server and the web tech guy will be working on this problem. In the meantime I can eithar make a new blog with same name and username or wait it out. I think I’ll wait it out. 

I have also tried to read others’ blogs only to get a blank page.  I thought it was because they were set to private, but perhaps all we need to do is click their username, then their blog.  It’s worth a try. So if anyone else out there feels like they are not being read maybe this is the problem and take heart, help is on the way!

Thank-you again, Jodi, for getting back to me so quickly and for your explanation of this problem.  You are truly a blessing!
