After some attempts to start this timeline on the site TimeToasthttp://www.timetoast.com/, I decided that I would follow the steps of a fellow blogger (Tina Lyons from Gen Wish Listgenwishlist.blogspot) and just list my timeline here. The good thing is that I have set up an account (free) with TimeToast, and never being one to walk away from a challenge, will soon return and learn how to work the program to my satisfaction. I will let you know how it goes.

Thanks for the mention. I had trouble getting my timeline to work in Time Toast being slow so I gave up on it. And since I decided to use it for an upcoming series of blog posts, I wanted to be able to hyperlink all of the entries.
