Yes, I’m Going to Say The “B” Word

July 21, 2009 by Elaine

No, not that one. “BlogHer.” As most of you know, I’m going to the BIG blog conference this week and I have an array of feelings to go along with that fact. Included in the list are excited, nervous, overwhelmed, oh and kinda FREAKING OUT! Of course the main thing on my mind is “Oh…

I’ve Come to Depend on You

July 20, 2009 by Elaine

Yesterday was a less than stellar day. I spent the majority of it wallowing in self pity and laying on some soft-ish surface in the house. It wasn’t one of my better days. Probably one of the worst actually. It started out with the boys collectively behaving THE worst they have EVER behaved in church…

Jump Around

July 13, 2009 by Elaine

As you can all see the blog has been made-over! My friend Christy of Ruby & Roja Design did a fabulous job, don’t you think? I super duper puffy heart triple love it! Tim even commented on how the colors are a variation on Mardi Gras colors and how that is somewhat fitting for our…

Past Post Parade – Pick One!

June 2, 2009 by Elaine

I’m going to make this really easy for everyone. Pick a favorite PAST post and link to it. If it’s from the month of May/June then great. If it’s from December of 2005 (or ANY other date for that matter!), then that’s good too! I probably won’t host for a month or so after this,…

Who, Me??

May 11, 2009 by Elaine

Things have been kinda crazy in the Miss Elaine-ous household lately as big changes are afoot (of which I can only elude to at this time). Needless to say I haven’t spent much time reading blogs, commenting and twittering in the last few days. So when I did get on twitter for a few moments…

Some Rambling with a side of …. blah, blah, blah

May 5, 2009 by Elaine

I have a lot going on in my head right now. Some of it I will spill right here, right now and some of it I’m not quite ready to divulge yet. This post is going to be a little “rambly” but right now I feel I need to type some of it out here,…

Tuesday’s Tribute Trifecta

April 21, 2009 by Elaine

So Tuesday’s Tribute has moved from Jay’s place to Angie’s since Jay is taking some sort of blogging break. I miss you already my bald friend. But of course Angie is a wonderful and gracious hostess herself and where the tribute goes, I shall follow! My tribute comes in triplicate this week so here goes….

Daily Grommet & A CUTE Giveaway

April 9, 2009 by Elaine

Last week my bloggy pal Angella contacted me about featuring one of the many sites that she contributes to, Daily Grommet. In return, they would have something for one of the lucky readers here… But before I get to the “meat” of this post about a wonderful site that highlights new and innovative products and…

Just Spreadin’ the Luv

March 10, 2009 by Elaine

So I griped on twitter yesterday about how my blog seemed a little “ghost town-like” in the comments section. Seriously, I could here crickets chirping through my laptop. Traffic has been about on par but I’ve had less comments the last few days. I also asked if perhaps it’s because I smell and no one…
