More Photo Love

So, as promised more amazing pictures from some lovely blogs I follow.  These serve as inspiration to keep playing with my camera and trying new things, that someday I may take lovely photographs like these.  Enjoy!

Again

I've missed both Tuesday's Treasure and Things I Love Thursday due to pregnancy fatigue.  Exhaustion.  Emotional upheaval.  Whatever you want to call it.  And due to the fact that my humble abode is rather, well, humble and tiny, I haven't the space to keep crafting supplies around all the time.  If I decide to make something, I always have to go out and find supplies for whatever specific project I'm thinking on.  Thus, I haven't even the beginnings of my latest idea to share (insert mumbled obscenities). With these thoughts twisting and turning, I'll leave you with a few inspirational pictures from a few favorite blogs.  If you haven't already, please check them out!

Well well well

Finally, a blog design I am quite pleased with.  It seems that so many backgrounds available are quite, um, busy, and tend to distract from the actual content of the blog.  Hopefully this one is colorful enough to be enjoyable (I need color, plain white would bore me to tears) yet backgroundish enough not to detract from the actual content (if such there be).  Aside from the header being too big (I'll correct this at a later time when I feel like arguing with my photo-editor), what do you think?  Too busy or just right?

FYI

This page started as an all-in-one blog, with all my hopes/dreams/desires/rants rolled into one.  However, I've decided to post my rants to a different blog, as it doesn't seem right to talk about decorating my son's room right after fuming over racism and gay bashing.  And since my rants allow me for some small release over said issues, my desire to continue to vent my frustration won out over cutting said posts completely.  So for those who are interested, Three Cat Night Rants Away.

What to do...

One of my very worst (or best) habits is changing things.  If it's not moving, I get bored.  Very easily.  So my furniture gets rearranged, the pictures on my walls are replaced now and again, only to be dragged back out and put back up.  My hair style changes quite a bit, and often colored to the extreme.  So, dear friends, pay no mind to my often changing blog colors and themes.  Color is a must, as my attention span is quite limited and pretty swirls to look at will keep me entertained a bit longer than plain white.  Let me know which styles you like (or don't like, as the case may be) and please indulge my immature fancy for all things bright and shiny.  What is it that you continually change?
