Well, I’ve been blogging about it, talking about it, & tweeting about it. Enough blabbing. Here it is! FindingSilverLinings.net!
It’s mine all mine 😀 (<– my super cheesy, proud mama grin)
A few weeks in the making, a ton of web research, countless bags of chocolate, and a lot of frustration later, it’s finally here.
The new site is very much like me at this point in time… in more ways than one.
1. All of the technical issues aren’t worked out (hello weird icons instead of pictures?!).
2. There’s still a ton of sprucing up to do, but it’s up and running, so why wait?
3. It’s a little A.D.D. Not completely twitch-tastic, but there’s a lot going on at once. What can I say, I’m a complicated woman 😉
I know most people would have waited until ALL of the kinks were worked out to “debut” their new site, but I’m impatient and excited. Bad combo, and story of my life! LOL!
This is my “intelligent web designer” look…….. actually, I just put on my friend’s glasses. Oh well, I tried 😉
*********************************************************************************************************
So what do you guys think?! I did all of this techie stuff myself (and I’m NOT tech savvy). I really am asking for your constructive criticism and/or any self-host help you’d like to offer up here.
Lurkers, you know who you are. Please de-lurk! I’d like to make this blog more user-friendly and enjoyable 🙂
Love you guys!

Congrats Mindy! Looks great!
Love this. Love your layout and love everything about it.
Thanks for the feedback Hollie!!
It looks great, Mindy! I really love the scrolling banner at the top. The whole layout is really user friendly. 🙂
YAY! Your first comment! LOL! Thanks so much for your feedback Laura, I really value your opinion 😉 I heard the Harry Potter portion of the concert last night was a real hit! The kids were all abuzz this morning.
It looks awesome! I’m totally impressed! Love the scrolling topics at the top. I’m pretty sure I’ll comment on the wrong posts a lot, but it’s just because I’m an idiot and always get confused when the comment button is at the top of the post instead of the bottom. Don’t mind me.
I’m the same way! That’s one of the kinks that I have to iron out still 🙂 Thanks for the input Kim!
Congrats on the new site Mindy! It looks great! I love the colors 🙂
You did it! I’m still too scared to move from Blogger. Way to go brave one!
Holy crap Mindy! The new site is awesome!
Thanks John!! I love hearing feedback from fellow bloggers 🙂
Just out of curiosity, did you read any books or visit any websites to help you out with this? We’re in dire need of a theme redo!! I’d prefer to DIY it, but it’s taking me forever to get to it.
No books. I’ll help you with anything you guys need! I went through Bluehost and I’m using the WordPress interface. Email me with specific questions and I’ll do all I can!
you look so pretty in glasses!
