Halloween is over. Thank God. Call me scrooge but it's just not a favorite. A whole lot of hulabaloo for two hours in a lame costume to get a few pieces of penny candy. Lame lame lame.
Thanksgiving is alright. I'm not big on turkey or pumpkin pie- or football. I mean a house full of family can't be beat but Christmas. That's what I'm talking about. A month of yummy food and fabulous parties. New Christmas outfits and pajamas. A house filled with people and lots of sparklies- smelling like pine trees. Decorating every inch of home inside and out. Ornaments to hang and lots of good carols to listen to. Wreaths and lights and singing and presents. Oh, glorious presents...big, small it doesn't matter. Wrapped in beautiful paper with bows and ribbons. The excitement of Christmas Eve and jubilation of Christmas morning. Mmmm...I can smell Christmas coming. I can feel it around the corner.
I've started buying presents. I just can't help myself. The babes are getting soo many fabulous things this year- bikes, a dollhouse, a foosball table, a wooden train, dress up stuff. I cannot wait to see their faces...only 51 more days!
I'm hosting our first holiday party on December 4. Is it too early to decorate?! Maybe I'll just pull out the tubs to get a whiff of Christmas air...
Ok. So me and my blog have always had a love hate relationship. Now it has taken on a whole new element. As I'm sure you've noticed my blog has been undergoing a makeover of sorts. I had a vision (don't you hate when that happens?) of what I wanted it to be and then after finding someone who said they would do it for me at a set price by the time he was finished the price had tripled. My vision had not changed. Hrmph. Web people. Then I found someone else but they couldn't make it a reality. So now I'm doing it all by myself. When you want something done right, best to do it yourself...
I'm making a ton of mistakes and have succeeded in totally messing up my HTML along the way but so far so good. I've removed that terrible blue blogger bar at the top, changed my border dividers to be bigger polka dots instead of lines, removed the border on my header, and a ton of other things that you probably didn't even notice- the borders are gone from my posts. Never bugged you right? Well, these are things that keep me up at night...wondering what the right code is to change such small and ridiculous details.
No. I'm not done. My new title is totally lame and needs to be changed (which is good because I own a domain name on WordPress and they won't give it back to me to use on Blogger so I have to buy a new domain anyways...forget the hype WordPress blows).
I changed all my fonts to handwriting (which took me FOREVER) and then realized I hated it and had to delete all the HTML I had worked so hard to type.
I'm still in the process to adding links below my header- which I found is possible just slightly more difficult than I'd like. And then there's my header that I need to make into a link so that you can click to be redirected back home but when I try to do this it shrinks my image to a barely there speck of grosgrain...
All of this and you could could probably care less. I know, I know. But I felt like I needed an explanation to all the randomness...
I know, I know...my blog has been crazy as of late. One day it's redirecting you to WordPress, the next it has a bird, and then it's asking you to sign in. I'm trying to rearrange and change all of my HTML and it's making a mess of things...
Soon it will be beautiful...it just might take awhile! Until then disregard all things going on...it is staying here, open to everyone. If you get a strange message check back the next day...or maybe the next!
