Unfortunately, the new Blogger User Interface, that will soon become default and not optional, has a dating issue that I can't work with on blogs that are backdated.
As an author a user will not be able to select a year, but instead have to click back by month which is completely crazy and unusable. This will limit my dating abilities for my journal posts, so I am exporting this blog to Wordpress where dating a blog is not nearly as difficult as it is on Blogger (or will be).
My blog address on Wordpress is
http://viewinsideout.wordpress.com/
And no, I am not giving up this blog address in hopes that maybe someday things will work out so I can use it again, as well as it being back up of what I have done so far.
