Redesign Coming (Hopefully)

For the past two days I've been glued to Pinterest looking for some inspiration for a blog redesign. What I have now is a basic one that I found for free. I don't totally love it now, but it was my favorite back when I was searching for free stuff.

Recently, I entered in a contest to win a personalized design. I didn't win, even though I was convinced I would. I'm not yet desperate enough to shell over hundreds of dollars for my blog to look pretty, so I'm hoping that I can do it on my own. I'm hoping to have something pretty basic anyway.

It's been a while, but back in high school I used to do a bunch of web design. Images, html, and all! I'm hoping that even though it's been almost a decade since then, I can still remember how to do something. The tutorials that I've found through Pinterest have been an amazing help and have brought a ton of inspiration.

All I need to do now is step my creativity up and make something pretty. I've got about a week to kill here in Miami so I should have plenty of time. Although, some of our Fort Stewart friends are driving down for the baby's baptism on Saturday and I'm super excited about that!!

I've read a bunch on other blogs about some key things to include, but what are some things that you like best about your layout or other blogs in general??

I'm Boring!

It's official! I'm a boring old person. So far I've spent my ultra exciting Friday night laying on the couch watching Dora and Bubble Guppies. Hubs, my sister, and my mom have asked why I'm not out doing something. Ehh, I really just don't feel like going anywhere. It definitely doesn't help that Hubs found my fourth gray hair today. Thankfully I have a ton of hair to cover all the grays up.

Earlier this evening I dropped off my fratstar husband off at the fraternity house, passed by my best friend's house to say hi really quickly, and then came back to my parent's house with intentions of starting and finishing a bottle of wine, but I think I'm even too lazy for that.

Tomorrow's fun filled agenda includes taking a baptism course for parents, and that's pretty much it. I've already decided that a church class is probably all the excitement that I can handle for one day. It's crazy that I have no desire to enjoy Miami. It was great when I was 17 and looking for trouble in my new car. At 25 with two kids, I'd rather take a nap.

We'll be in Miami for almost two weeks and I pray that I can change my negative Nancy attitude. There's just something about Miami that makes me angry. As soon as I hit that traffic at the county line, you can assure that the only thing you'll hear from me is cursing and rude comments. I've learned to love living in Georgia, where people are courteous and believe in using turn signals.

I'm thinking about starting a tally sheet for all of the serious traffic violations that I notice so that I can share with all of you. Driving is awful here!! So far I've brake-checked 3 people (all large trucks) for riding my ass too closely. I've also worked extra hard to speed up and not leave openings for the jerks that swerve across four lanes of traffic trying to get to the exit that we just passed five miles of signs for. But my all time favorite thing to do to piss Miami drivers off come to a complete stop at stop signs. I might be just as bad as everyone, but at least I'm consciously aware that I'm doing these things.

Hope you all have a great weekend! Pray that I don't kill anyone! (:
