Check the New Design Out!!

Over the weekend, or about 4 days ago to be precise, I was perusing other blogs, looking for a new design and came across one that I liked. I looked for the credits and contacted the web designers for that particular blog.

Four days later Lisa from Design-a-Blog came up with this new look. Isn't it wonderful??? We exchanged quite a bit of e-mails back and forth, each of us coming up with new ideas as it went along and she was quite patient each time I told her to change a background colour, a font, take this line out, and put that color in and that "red" isn't a good colour for peace - it looks too much like blood. I held up a lavender scented candle up to my computer screen for a couple of minutes. My kids thought I was loony.

"What are you doing mother!"

"I'm checking this colour out for my new blog design. What do you think?"

"I don't care about your fucking blog. Don't ask me!" huffed the Eldest One.

Don't you hate PMS?

Well, I care about my fucking blog.

And I am really grateful to Lisa at Design-a-Blog for doing such a beautiful job, so quickly and at a very reasonable cost.

I think the new version of your blog looks better than your previous one.

thank! I was wondering about the purple or should it be an ivory color instead. These decisions are tough. But purple is a royal color and since I'm a queen.....
