A new and fabulous look to my Blog, come see!

A wonderful friend of mine, Sharla, re-designed my Blog! I wanted you all to come and see the new Look! And if you have time, please leave me a comment telling me how you like it. Do you think it it is more my style?

I simply love it! The colors and graphics all fit me to A tee! I love the Mediterranean colors, and graphics that she put in that header. You all know how much I love my knitting and crafts!

I also love the New button! It reminds me of my love of woodworking, and refinishing older furniture. I think she nailed me right on the head! Now, if people want to put my button on their blog, they can! Not that I have too many people that want to put my button on their blog! LOL!

So come and take a look, and please help me thank her, by giving a huge thank you for all her hard work and help in making my Blog so fabulous and much more personal in the way it fits my style!

I cannot believe that she did this for me for free! People pay money to get this kind of thing done. And for her to go out and do this for me is saying a lot of the kind of person and friend she is to me. She has not done it just for me, she has done it for others also. And she does not have a lot of time on her hands, when she works, and has twins! Plus she has her own blog that she has to worry about! This shows you what a giving person she is and how she takes time for others, though she barely has time for herself! So, thank you, thank you, thank you! You rock!

If you want to visit her blog, just click on the button above, called "the mom nerd" and it will take you right to her blog. She has lots of contests, reviews on books and all kinds of other great topics. So, if you have some time, visit her and maybe you might find a great contest to enter or book review or even a product review! She is funny and to the point. I love reading her blogs.

It is a great site..as you can tell, she is all over mine! So, hand out and visit her site a while. I am sure you will have a great time.

Want $50 Bucks in CASH?

Then visit The Mom Nerb Blog and read a couple posts. There are other things to do for extra entries...but, you don't have to go searching for favorite products on another site.

She is a lot like me...scary. Trying to find her footing in the blogging world who, like myself, wants to talk about EVERYTHING, family, faith, and crafts. What to do...hummm! Another chatter box like myself...who cannot post a response with less then 500 words.

You can tell it has been a while since I have posted here. I am trying to figure out what to do, like she is...but, I have been crafting and spending time with the kids since they were home here for a month.

It is just me and Papa, plus the animals now. And then the last couple months have been nothing but drama and trama, (assualted, ripped off, son in a pickle, BIG pickle but, he is ok now) so I haven't really wanted to post, feeling like my life has turned upside down and confused about what I am doing and where I am going. These are things I can talk in general terms and need to vent about, but, I also want to start a new life with my disability doing my crafts and hopefully making a little income since I no longer work. And I want to have a life, outside the house, though I can't get out because of not being able to drive for now, or just saving money on gas and limiting my traveling out and about.

Being disabled...I live a lot through my computer and feel I can be a part of the outside world through the www. I have met wonderful people and found some great blogs. This one, The Mom Nerd, is one that seems to be my twin. I posted that we are "Twin Daughters of Different Mothers". Remember the album by Dan Folgelberg and Tim Wiseberg called "Twin Son's of Different Mothers"? But, not knowing her age...I might have dated myself and completely confused her!

The way she writes, I can hear her speak, and understand the dilemma of where she wants her blog to go and what she should concentrate on the most. Everywhere girl! Nothing wrong with talking about everything! Which you all know..I will talk about anything and everything also and cannot write a post or blog with less then 1000 characters. So, I found a similarity in her and what she was writing about.

Oh yeah...she is having a contest for cash! You can get more entries by posting on your blog about her and subscribing, etc. Which, if you like her and want her to succeed in gaining a follwoing of people that can relate to what she has to say and share stuff with, then you will be willing, like I am, to jump through the hoops, join her newsletters, blog, etc. The 50 bucks will be a bonus if you win, but, I think you will just be glad to find a down to earth lady who you will find as interesting as I did and most likely enjoy visiting on a regular basis.

So visit her site: The Mom Nerd...and start reading to enter and meet a great lady.

I had better post that this contest ends on 1-31-09, but, I bet she has more cool things going on, worth checking it out!
