I hope someone can help me with this: Besides that main page of my blog which is where the posts go, I would like to also be able to have another page within the same blog (secondary page) that also allows to post chronological content (daily posts exactly as the main page) rather than just document-type page.
Is there a way to do it without creating a new blog and linking it to the top nav?
Thanks for any help you can offer!

yes
Create a custom page template by copying the contents of index.php to a new php file in your theme directory. Then add a QueryPosts statement before the Wordpress loop on the new page, to limit the posts that are displayed on that page.
See these Codes pages:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages#Page_Templates
http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts
Then create a new empty page using Write Page in the Admin area. At the bottom of that page, find the custom page template you created in the pulldown in the Page Templates section, and publish your page. Now posts from that category or whatever will apppear on that new page you created.

Thanks! I am trying to understand all this but I have a new question: where do I find the ID for my categories? I have looked everywhere and I just can't find it, all I have is the slug and the name.
