I'm A Slacker & Some Changes To This Ole' Blog

Hey Ya'll!

Hope you guys have had a great Wednesday!!

As many of you know, I usually participate in the Stop & Smell The Rose's link-up at House of Rose on Wednesdays! This morning I had every intention of getting up, showering, & making myself look presentable in order to shoot my vlog! I also had every intention of working in my yard, fertilizing my flowers & sprucing up the patio. But then something happen and I ended up doing this instead.....

I know, I know....

Can you blame me though?! 

The weather has been ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS this week & my little sis is in town visiting! I just couldn't tell her "no" when she called this morning & asked me if I wanted to spend the afternoon with her & my kiddos lounging by the pool! Today was my last day off before returning to work tomorrow, & I couldn't have spent it doing anything better!!

I did, however, manage to be somewhat productive this evening! I spent time answering some emails & also worked on a little blog housekeeping. I'm sure a lot of you have noticed some changes in my navigation bar over the past several weeks. If you use internet explorer as your primary browser, it may look a little wonky & I apologize! I am in the process of trying to get that fixed! For some reason it looks fine in all of the other web browsers, but having problems in IE! 

Anyway...I have added a FAQs (frequently asked questions) tab to the navigation bar & worked on it today. I hope that this will be a great resource for you all as readers. So often, I find the same questions filling my inbox regarding certain projects that I've done in the past. This page addresses those questions & provides you with the answers you've been wanting to know, as well as links to certain products that will help you to complete or replicate my projects. As much as I want to be able to answer each one of your questions via email, sometimes this just isn't practical! There isn't enough hours in the day for this working, blogging, SAHM of two! I'm sorry....it doesn't mean I love you any less! 

I've also added a tab featuring my Top 10 Projects of last year. I did a post featuring these projects at the end of last year & I know that I have gotten many new readers since then. So, I thought that might be of interest to all of you new readers & for readers that are viewing my site for the first time!

And last, but not least there is also a "Happily Ever Before & After" tab added to the navigation bar as well. This is something NEW I am going to be adding to the blog! There are so many FABULOUS room makeovers all over blogland & I want to be able to highlight some of my favorites, as well as give an opportunity to showcase some of yours!! I hope to be able to do this on a bi-weekly schedule. Right now, I am thinking about ever other Friday. 

I will provide you all with one "before" picture & one "after" picture of a room makeover and then provide you all with a link to the blogger/blog behind the makeover, so that you can view more detailed pictures of the post & also find a list of resources to products & items used for the makeover. If you are wanting to "pin" one of the photos from the makeover, I will be asking that you do so from the original source, so that the blogger will get credit for the pin. 

The "Happily Ever Before & After" tab will be a library of all these fabulous room makeovers organized by rooms (kitchens, bath, living rooms, etc.) & a great place for YOU to find inspiration!!

If you have a room makeover that you would like to have featured on my blog, please contact me!!
