Back Up And Running

Ok I finally got my website back up and running. I was having problems with the horizontal line (candy cane above and under this entry) but I got it all figured out finally. I had to go into “photo shop” to move the icing in the background so it’s wider so I can fit all the text in that space. The Christmas bulbs were making it too big. It’s all good now hehe.

Disappearing Act

My website disappeared tonight (Monday 11/12/07) because I deleted it all to start fresh so I could remove some unwanted things but it backfired and eventually it all got put back. Except there are some pages, lots of pages in fact that are missing. I haven’t converted those yet to the gingerbread theme. I’m still working on that so as soon as I am finished it will be back. Thank you for your patience.

Boring Work

Working on this website is making me fall asleep so I’m going to stop doing it for today. I got a lot done but not all of it. So anyway, the old pages are still in the navigation so there aren’t any drastic changes. I will work more on it later or tomorrow.

I knew I had a lot of work to do on my website when I decided to change the theme but I had no idea I had so many pages to change. And I’m gonna have to go through this again after Christmas when I put in a new theme hehe.

Gingerbread Theme

I just bought a Christmas theme for my website (As you can see the Gingerbread theme) so this will be my Christmas theme. I will still be looking for a regular theme that I will use after the holidays are over.  I’ve only made the front page with this theme so far but I will be working on the rest of my website later.  It’s going to be a job to get it all done hehe.

Theme-Pak

I am on the search for a new theme for my website. If you would like to help me in my search go to www.theme-pak.com (I use FrontPage) and look through all of their themes (or choose a category) and email me to tell me what you think I should make my theme. Make sure it is one of the themes that are $14.95 because I like the ones that are connected like this one. If I like it I will buy it and tell people that you told me to get it. Use the Email Me button in the menu to let me know what you think. Make sure you tell me who you are otherwise I won’t know who to give the credit to.

3D Cookie Cutters

I bought these 3D cookie cutters from Publishers Clearing House even though I knew I couldn’t bake cookies but now I can WOOHOO! So now I can make some cookies for Christmas. I might even make them as Christmas presents. There are several different shapes like snowman and a Christmas tree etc. I’ll have to get a picture for the crafts section when I make them.

The Use of Our Oven

We haven’t had the use of a stove since we moved into Opals house after she passed away and so Darrin decided that he wanted to cook a turkey for Thanksgiving instead of going out like we always do so he bought a package of cookies to bake. Well, I turned the oven on to 350° and it works. It’s an electric oven but it seems to work fine. See, we haven’t touched it because it’s an old oven, it hasn’t been turned on in 30 years. But it seems to be ok. Although, perhaps I’m talking too soon… Prepare for an edit to this post haha.
