Yesterday while Ben was off playing softball in a local league, I enjoyed a day of SSB (Secret Single Behavior. Carrie Bradshaw, anyone?) which included a bridal gown show marathon. In one episode, a bride-to-be was hooked on a dress that was already discounted 50% off retail price, but she still asked if there was [...]
One thing we should all keep in mind is that content is always king. A pretty blog might catch someone’s eye, but well-written, engaging, creative posts are what keeps a reader hanging around. So what happens when you hit a writing road block and can’t find the words or the inspiration for a new post? Here are [...]
I have started and stopped a Blogher recap post more times than I can count. It isn’t an issue of writer’s block, or an inability to wrap my head around the amazing five days spent in New York City. It isn’t the shame of admitting I loved every minute in the expo hall and proudly [...]
Turns out, your Blogher ticket comes with an unofficial hangover that leaves you exhausted from lack of sleep, late night laughs with roomies and new new friends, talking, smiling, and hauling swag around the city. So forgive me for not having an actual recap post ready yet. But until then, let me just say that, like all [...]
This past weekend, Ben and I headed to Philly for Bloggy BootCamp and GLO’s cocktail party. I had SUCH an awesome time! (Even if we had a rocky start and a broken bolt on the wheelchair lift.) There are a lot of great recaps, so if you’re looking for an overview on the info learned, [...]
A friend told me a couple days ago that she moved her blog to a different platform that she felt was easier for her to manage. And even though I understand why she made the move, I tried convincing her to use wordpress. Because I freakin’ love wordpress. It’s been almost two years since I [...]
Whew! I can’t believe November is here already! I just wanted to give a huge THANK YOU to everyone who participated in the Disability Awareness Month event - both the awesome guest posters and the amazing readers. I hope everyone enjoyed it! And since life goes on, as always, I’ve got lots to recap [...]
This week I’m participating in Brittany and Hannah’s blog bash. Last year, Brittany started this week-long blog hop/meme and had such a great turnout that repeating it was just an obvious choice! This year, the bash has a theme of Summer Fun. As always, there are a bunch of great giveaway prizes up for grabs, [...]
While there’s still a few little things that need to be fixed, the new site is up! So here’s hoping this post is actually showing up in your readers! My header illustration, who got her debut on Twitter a few weeks ago, was created by the absolutely fabulous Natalie at Eight Days Designs. I can’t [...]
There’s some pretty big changes, involving the blog, that are happening in the next few days. Changes that started with a tweet from a conference, that I read almost two months ago. “If you aren’t unique, you don’t need to be on the internet.” ouch. The tweet got me thinking about what I’m doing and [...]
