Ah, good. After a couple of months' inconvenience, I am home to something close to my original format, plus I seem to have recovered my sidebars. Not sure how much has changed: my problem was that I couldn't figure out how to post or edit, and that can be a problem for a blogger. I think I've come up with a workaround (you just go to the main Google page and select "Blog). Now maybe I should also work on the typeface--somebody taught me once that sans serif is too much of an eyestrain for text.

sans serif is a for-print font characteristic; blog posts are not assumed to be printed.
Glad you figured out Blogger; someone had to be able to, and it was never going to be me.
Glad your sidebars are back....I have missed laudator and anectdotal evidence. (Apparently the extra effort of going to their pages and bookmarking them was beyond my feeble strengths.)
Ken Champney, late co-publisher of the Yellow Springs (Ohio) News, used to tell his acolytes that Sans Serif was okay for headlines--bold and direct--but deficient in information content, and hence wearisome for text.
Just seconding Ken Houghton here. Traditionally (since 1998) common understanding was that serif typeface should not be used for online text because the finer lines of the serifs get pixiliated, which makes the type less clear, and as result, promotes eye fatigue. Then again, that probably doesn't hold so true anymore with higher screen resolutions. Which is a long way of saying, it's all good (so long as it isn't Comic Sans).
