Getting There… New Look!! New Blog Design Coming! Houston…we have lift off!

Ugh, I had this post half written and Live Writer crashed!! Dam program.

I have been swamped. I’m taking two classes right now together (Cultural Diversity and Intro to Graphic Imaging). I thought the graphic class would be easy enough that I could take another class along with it. Well, I failed to think about the workload on the other class…so it’s a bit of a struggle but I am managing.

Confession: I didn’t even turn anything in last week in one of the classes.

Yeah, I’m not managing well. I’m gonna do better though!

I’ve been in a funk. I don’t know what is going on but I’ve just been EXHAUSTED! Like I could fall asleep right this minute if I close my eyes exhausted. But I’m trying to kick myself out of it.

Because of the double school workload and the funk I’ve pretty much been neglecting my household chores, my husband, my life…And change is in order.

So, I’ve rejoined Weight Watchers online. Before we went to Florida I had done it on my own and did pretty good and more importantly, I felt good. I want to feel like that again and Lord knows I could use to lose weight!!!

And in order to keep myself accountable I have made a new blog that I will link on a tab above. I need to design it and get it going first.

I also ordered some materials, so I’m actually waiting until those arrive to start the program. I know, I should start it now…but I’m waiting.

I will post the link when I get started.

How cute are those pears?? Click on the photo to see credit and read about how they were made.

I am excited about this next part!!!

I have been trying to decide on a name for my Web Design site and business for whenever I begin to charge for my work. I original wanted “Purple Pear Web Designs” but that is already taken by a couple people. I had thrown around a few different names and decided on Pear Girl Web Designs.

I got to thinking about the name again recently and decided that I didn’t like that name…even though I registered the domain and have been sitting on it for almost a year…so back to the drawing board I went.

I decided on the name “Joyful Pear Web Designs”  and I’ll tell you why. The pear part should be obvious…but the Joyful part is in honor of my Granny. Her favorite word is ‘joy’. If creativity is inherited then she is who I got mine from.

So I registered my new domain and I even designed my logo. Of course I had to design it at that moment…it’s funny because I actually sketched it out, and I don’t draw all that well…but I think it’s lovely. It’s simple.

I will share soon and this, too, will be linked above.

I don’t know when I will begin making sites for profit. I may actually start with making blog themes and go from there. I’ll have to see what happens.

If anyone has any ideas how to get something like this started, please leave me a comment. I’d appreciate any advice!

My poor photoblog has been so neglected!!! And I have forgotten more photos than I have taken. I’m going to try to work this out. Maybe I’ll just take the photos with my cell phone…hmm, that’s an idea.

Will try to start this over soon. I’ll keep ya posted!

Blog re-design is coming soon!

I am trying to get my hands on that Colorful kit below. I emailed the designer, so I’m waiting to hear back. If I don’t hear back soon then I will be on the search for a different kit. I am thinking something purpley and lovely. I dunno though….stay tuned.

So the design ended up being more than one of Irene Alexeeva’s kits. What can I say? I like her style and omg I love those little pigs!! I still have to make the side graphics and for some reason my countdown to Eclipse isn’t working anymore so I’ll just put some yummy Twilight pictures there. I really like how it turned out!

The dishes are almost done…well minus the ones in here that I find while cleaning tomorrow and the ones that are throughout the rest of the house if there are any. There’s some soaking in the sink to put in the dishwasher this next time I turn it on, it wasn’t full.

I don’t even want to discuss the state the kitchen was in. It could have been on an episode of Hoarders, i swear. This room (office) too. I’m not at all proud of it, but omg…definitely time to change. No reason to be living that way! It’s nothing but laziness, really.

Well, once again, I vow that I am done…changin my ways! LOL we’ll see how long it lasts. I always say that! But really, we shouldn’t have to take an ENTIRE weekend to clean the house up! Absolutely NO reason for it!

I totally plan on changing it. I am surrounded by junk in here. I am gonna go through the room and just throw shit out that we don’t need.

I had a shelf made over the dog’s cage so I could use it to put stuff on. Well it’s piled with junk taller than me! omg, I couldn’t even tell you what’s under there! And then there’s junk all over the floor…mail, papers, blankets, just junk.

Tomorrow it will be clean. I assure you.
