Here it is!

Okay, so if you haven't noticed yet, my blog is completely  "undone", header stretched and skewed, background doesn't match anymore - it looks nothing like the blog it used to look like.  Sad.  But, as stated in a previous post, I accidentally deleted my html for this blog when creating my other blog - and I haven't found the energy or time to fix this one, considering I am now on to my new one!  Forgive me.  :o)  So, don't stick around here - please come on over and check out my new blog!  I hope you like it!

GET READY!

Here it comes!! I am on the last bit of decision making to get this thing going (my new adventure, my new blog). I'm excited! I found myself way too obsessive and realized I need to just chill out and get it going. I changed my blog design seven times! AH! Sweet Ashley from According to Ash (www.drewashleyporter.blogspot.com) tagged me in the Honest Scrap, and I'm excited to be a part of it! I thought it would be fun to do it on the new one and help start it to get going. So, my sweet friends, tonight and tomorrow it will be FINISHED! I hope you're excited because I definitely am. :o) See you soon in my little "pocket"! ;o)

soooo.

I am working on my new blog, as stated in my previous post, and while doing so accidentally deleted EVERYTHING for this blog!  AH!  I know my header up above is a bit skewed and stretched, and the yellow on the sides doesn't really go, but this all just to hold me over until I finish the new blog.  I had to think of something fast!  I didn't write down the coding for my last layout (lesson I learned, ALWAYS keep a copy of your codes!) and don't want to take the time to figure it out again, when I am more interested in the new blog!  SO, there you have it.  I hope to have the new blog finished SOON.  I am working on it in all of my spare time, but still have some work left to do.  I love designing and creating, but it's hard because when it is for myself I tend to be a perfectionist and take WAY too much time.  I can't wait to be done!

Thanks for stopping by!  I'll let you know as soon as the new one is ready!  xoxo

change of plans.

So I have been doing some thinking.

I want to make my "creative world" a priority. I love the idea of having this creative outlet that can be shared. I haven't been good at keeping up with my blog in the past, mostly because of time, but I also find it sometimes scary to convey personal opinions in fear that they will be shut down. On a different but related note, I feel like I have lived a lot of my life in a hurry with tons of energy being expelled from my soul daily. I told my husband that this year I am going to focus on being HEALTHY. I don't just mean exercising and eating right, although that is a huge part, but also mentally striving to be healthy. If you could look into my thought processes at any given minute, you would see a bazillion streams of conversation going ninety miles a minute. My brain moves faster than anything in my life. My imagination is wild, and with that comes a whole boat load of busy planning and eager desires waiting to be fulfilled. What a shame that I think I am too busy to write. If I enjoy this, I need to make time. But what I have decided is to start a brand new blogging journey. And on this new journey, I won't feel compelled to need to talk about anything in particular. My greatest love in my life is my husband, so obviously he is something I will talk about a LOT. And I know that's okay - even if no one wants to read about it! But, there are so many things I am passionate about and enjoy, and even if I can only touch on a few of them, that's still better than nothing. I love, love LOVE to cook. I am always trying to find new recipes and plan our next dinner party. I love entertaining and the creativity that comes into planning a special and unique dinner party. I think I have some really great ideas to share! I love decorating. My challenge right now in our new house is to find those rare finds that are PERFECT for the look and feel I am going for, but are also AFFORDABLE. I am constantly on the look-out for sophisticated and stylish little knickknacks I can incorporate into the themes I am going for. I love traveling. Although I don't do as much now as I have before, we still have some amazing trips planned for the future. In fact, we're going to Italy in May for 10 days! I am ECSTATIC. I love books. But I am PICKY. I have to be caught up in the book enough to not want to put it down, or I probably won't finish it. I have found a few MUST READ books in my lifetime that NEED to be shared and read by everyone (in my opinion). I love designing! Everything I know I have taught myself, so I am by no means a professional, but I love getting on my macbook and letting the creative juices flow and do their thing. The list goes on. So, I will be starting a new blog that I am EXCITED to pour into. I love this blog. I love that it was my first. And really there is no need to start a new blog, except that I find it an exciting and intriguing desire to accompany my fresh start to a new and creative world for ideas, thoughts and writings.

It is in the works! So, stay tuned. :o)

lame. lame. lame.

I know, I am lame. Lame for never posting anything these days and even more lame for never putting up any pictures when I do post. I thought about making it a New Year's resolution, but then that would actually require me to expense the time and energy for this blog, when, honestly - I just don't have the time and energy. Things right now are so fun and so wonderful, but so BUSY. I thought it would get a lot calmer once January came around, but I was oh so wrong. So, therefore, I'm not making any promises right now to post more. And I'm not promising to post pictures with every post. In fact, I think for now it is wise for me to go on another little posting hiatus. But this I do promise - when I return, you better be ready for the outpour of posts, stories and PICTURES. This blog will quite simply KICK BLOG BUTT! But not yet. :o)

We love you all and wish you an outpour of blessings as we start of this new year!! God Bless!
