blog news

Just a quick note to update my blog readers and friends about my posts…

- A few months ago, I locked most of my entries but have been slowly going through them and opening some of them up for the archives. It’s been an emotional experience skimming over some of my past entries, like this poem about my son as a baby!

- Some of the entries that have to do with my chronic pain syndrome are now password-protected instead of locked. Friends may ask for the password if they’d like to read them. I may or may not post any new ones, but it looks as though it may be months before I can go back to feeling safe just blogging freely about my whole crappy experience fighting through the system to try to get help for my disability.

- For now, I’ll keep up with all my “lighter” posts. I’m still working on decorating our house and learning to sew, and working on scrapbooking, cross-stitch, card-making and stamping projects. And of course this is the first place to check for new blinkies!! :)

- I’ll also continue to blog about my life as a Mompreneur, what it’s like to start a business and grow it. Business registration, vendor permits, other milestones – stuff I wish I’d known about earlier in my WAHM career.

- I’ve changed the system for giving each entry it’s own URL and they will now have the title of the post instead of numbers. So if there are any links out there to previous entries, they may no longer work.

- I did start including some ad space in my sidebar a little while ago to try to generate some income. It’s only pennies right now, but who knows. Friends with LJ and friends on Facebook will still get a cross-post of each entry there without ads.

- I’ve been aiming to post at least a few times a week and plan to keep going with that. If you know anyone who might benefit from reading my blog, please pass along the info!! :) Whether they are veteran scrapbookers or coping with chronic pain or other illnesses, they just might find something here that can help.

Thanks for reading!! and I really love and appreciate comments, so please drop a note whenever you’d like! :)
