The rest of the story ...

All is well in blogland - at least for now. The template problems must have worked themselves out so that eventually all of my entries were appearing in my chosen template. As for inserting the photo into the Profile - that's another story. Once I finally deciphered the instructions (I'm a bit of a slow learner), I posted the edited jpeg version and used the HTML editor, but was never able to make it turn up in the Profile, so I gave up on that (I learned later that it might have worked if I had known which part of the HTML line to copy). Being persistent (stubborn?), I forged ahead using the existing avatar that was on the post until, by trial-and-error, I managed to copy the correct portion of the ID and - voila - after pasting it where it belonged, the image popped into place.

Now I can get back on track. I have realized that I can save time by printing out the Week Discovery directions and exercises for fast reference.
