  I can’t leave my blog posts from oldest to newest like I want to.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  WordPress has the most recent Post at the top – that gives your visitors fresh stuff and they don’t page down through stale stuff

  It also looks like you tried to add some sort of ad box in your sidebar – that is against the Terms of Service and will get your blog suspended

  As auxclass indicates there is no setting to reverse the order. Blogs are essentially a reverse chronological order publishing tool and you cannot change this order on a free hosted WordPress.com blog.

  See here for the option of creating a book-like structure > http://en.support.wordpress.com/write-a-book/ Perhaps that will work for you.

  You could use a sticky post as an index page > http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/post-visibility/#sticky-posts
