Bear (bare?) with me….. I am tweaking again. Tweak, tweak, tweak…. I should have never taken yesterday off from work because that gave me time to chill…. and blog, and visit… and think. Thinking…can be dangerous. So I came up with a couple of ideas (tweak, tweak)… ways to perk up the reviews (tweak), ways to do vamp up my author chats (tweak), and ways to announce the books I would love to read (TWEAK TWEAK TWEAK) It’s like a geiger counter. 😀
So one those notes (or tweaks) please hang in there with me the next few days. I have a lot of posts I am working on implementing and I am trying to pace them so my lovely (and appreciated –did I mention you are all appreciated?) readers do not go on blog overdose – leaving me here holding the smoking keyboard…..
Monday was awesome – I took the day off of work – unplugged my business mind but fully engaged (see tweak conversation above) my creative bloggy side. E gads! I got my hair cut, roller bladed, relaxed on my deck with lap top, then book, then lap top, then book, and a diet root beer.
I hope to post over the next few days: reviews (always), author chat (at least one this week but hoping to increase the amount of these I do – tweak tweak), BBAW post (must have up today – tomorrow at the latest!), WordShakers Book Club Reactivated (goal for this week peeps – bare (bear?) with me. )
Ok – I must go to work…. Thanks everyone for taking time to chat with this occasionally crazy (tweak tweak) Minnesota girl! 😀
Oh and P.S…. just kidding about the bears 😉
Oh, I am so all for tweaking…endlessly tweaking, that’s me. I don’t know if you noticed, but all of my Blogger blogs got “remakes” via the new template designer. Then I had to create a new header for a couple of them, because, of course, the old ones bored me. (Check Rainy Days…I really like this one!).
But that’s not the kind of tweaking you’re planning…I know. And I do that kind of tweaking, too, but not so much lately.
Bloggiesta was a good venue for tweaking.
Have a great day!
Hi Laurel – I did see the changes on your blogs. 🙂 I am doing more – prepping of my posts – giving them a bit of a fun facelift… jazzing things up a bit…. making sure all the links are working and that this front page is current. 🙂
Well, you’ve got me laughing this morning! :p
Oh good Hannah! 😀
I am far too lazy for tweaking!
LOL Vivienne – your blog is gorgeous and I admire it every time I stop in 🙂
And I thought i was doing good by changing my header and background. I’m looking forward to seeing the changes you are going to make. Have a good day!
Ryan – if I do it right… they wont be seen 🙂 Actually I am just funning (my word) up my posts…. breathing a little life into my reviews… something I had thought of awhile ago and then kind of reverted back to old ways….
Tweaking is fun! I need a day off to do that myself 😀
Good Morning Amy 😀
We’re in the midst of a killer heat wave so “bare” is the word here. 😀
LOL Barbara – I do like the heat – but I know what you mean when it gets to hot to breathe!
Have fun with the tweaking…looking forward to the changes! 😀
Thanks Staci!
Sounds like you had a very relaxing day-we had a cloudy cool drizzling day-no sunbathing at the beach for us So. Cal.
Relaxing is always good Esme – I bet you made something delicious! 🙂
It sounds like you had a great day yesterday!
Can’t wait for the book club to get going!!
Me too Vicki – I have some final touches yet to do and I am trying to group all of you who have had interest in the past so I don’t leave anyone out who may want to be a part of it. Details details….. 😀
Now you have got me interested. New ideas are always good (especially for a reader….an appreciated). Keep up the great ideas and pour some good reviews on me and I’m a happy little feverish coughing bookworm…….with lots of coffee.
Take care ! Have a fun-filled day !!
Fiza – we are starting with an author chat is a little bit here that I am pretty excited about. With a little luck – I have a great review coming up tomorrow. 🙂
Yesssssssssssssssss ! Yahoooooooooooooo !! (a feverish tone of bookish excitement )
Having time to think can be dangerous. All those wonderful ideas come to you, then you have to find a way to fit them in with everything else you do. Know you will manage just fine.
Yes Pat – I can be dangerous – LOL 😀
Good luck with tweaking! I try to resist that urge as much as possible because it can be such a time suck. But I do want to adjust my header, and the background, and the color scheme and the sidebars…
Hi Kim! Mostly internal tweaking…. nothing changing about the overall look – I am finally pretty happy with that 🙂
