 * I have my rss feed on my site now but it says an error occured and is not working.
   I cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix it. Mostly because I have no
   idea what the problem is.

 * It looks like you have tried to put the following in:
 * [http://feeds.specificfeeds.com/familyaswego](http://feeds.specificfeeds.com/familyaswego)
 * This URL does not point to an RSS feed, rather, it points to some service which
   has turned your RSS feed into a list of recent posts (I think??).
 * You need to put a link to an actual RSS feed into that widget, and this will 
   be turned into a list of recent posts.
 * For example, try replacing [http://feeds.specificfeeds.com/familyaswego](http://feeds.specificfeeds.com/familyaswego)
   with [http://www.familyaswego.com/feed/](http://www.familyaswego.com/feed/) in
   the RSS tool.
 * Alternatively, as this is the same site, try using the “Recent Posts” widget.
 * Lastly, if you just wanted to link to that RSS service, try adding it as a simple
   link, not an RSS feed. Because this isn’t an RSS feed.
