If you see the name of the drive that you would like to have backed up with Time Machine, click it to highlight it, then click the - (minus) button at the bottom of the exclusions list.

thanks, bob, that worked. after I backed up my external hd, I looked at the contents of my backup external hd and saw that it had backed up my computer 5 times including backing it up again when I did the external hd backup.
why is that happening? I know I didn't consciously do that.
