Yes, I’m back in civilization!

Prepping my fingers for some typing-action.

See you very soon…

Just a quick post today.

Funny timing, since I just posted Desert Tribute; it’s like I was tempting fate when I wrote the words “gonna miss all this space one day when we leave.” but we are indeed leaving town. This weekend we’re leaving the desert & moving to LA, the big (& smoggy) city.

Our bedroom here has a new occupant arriving soon & we’re on to a new destination. Next time you hear from me I will posting from a new location, making a mess in a new kitchen, exploring a new backyard, sweating in a new gym & kicking back in a new lounge.

See you soon folks!

You’ve come to the right place, no need to check your address bar! We’ve just been redecorating.

Thanks to my amazing husband, Nik, my site has had a renovation once again & I feel very much at home instantly with this one.

Thanks Nik, I think it’s beautiful.

One thing you may notice is a new button up there, “Gym”. Yep, now you can see updates on my progress.. & defeats, my good days & bad, plus all the new things I’m learning in the health & fitness dept. This area is more for myself than readers to be honest. I need a place to track my fitness, to get myself excited about improvement & collect inspirations. I’ve been following a few blogs lately, from athletes & people in the industry & I love how they get me revved up about my own fitness, & I figure by seeing my progression I can stir my own inspiration & create my own energy here. It’ll be easy to track what works for me & what holds me back when it’s laid out in front of me (& the rest of the world!) in all honesty.

So yeh… welcome home friends. Cuppa tea?

This week we got a membership at our local library. It’s only has a small selection, but I found a few things worthy of coming home with us on the first shelf-scan..   read more

I must say, I’m really disappointed with the lack of display options available for rss on my blog updates. I’m not sure if it’s a Wordpress thing or just my lack of experience with it but I seem to only have 2 options available for you-

You get my full post with the photos & all, regardless whether I use the “read more” button to break the post (& face it, I go overboard with pics sometimes, so do you really want 20 photos loading up without even opening my page?) or it displays the first few sentences, all mashed up with no formatting, looking butt-ugly (well, on Google Reader it does)…

I’m not sure which is better, so I’m gonna play around with it. Personally I am a fan of seeing blogs in full (including pics) when I view other sites through a reader (I’m lazy I guess), but if you have my site in your Google Reader I’d be interested to know other peoples’ preferences.

& if you use any other reader like Blogger ,or ones I’m less familiar with, I’d be even more interested in hearing from you.

Thanks!

Oh and don’t be a lurker. I get a lot of traffic these days but no chatter.
