I have spent entirely too much time screwing around with the blog look this morning. I liked the purple background but found it dark… too dark for a girl who is wishing and hoping for Spring… REAL SPRING…. it is snowing (AGAIN) here this morning and I am pretending not to notice….
So…. Happy Easter! We have no kids home this year – Justin (College son) has to work so will not be making the drive, Brad (Navy son) is soaking up the rays in Florida so not feeling too bad for him, other than I miss them both. Just Al and I today…. we have church then maybe later we will do a movie or something… I am looking forward to maybe a little reading this afternoon. I feel like I am in the middle of three audio books and two books and nothing is near completion. 😯
Anyhoo…. because I spent about an hour trying different headers here and going back and forth and honestly still not sure if the header is “the look” I am going for, I must bid you adieu, as now I have sat here with coffee cup and my PJ’s way too long and I need to get moving before I am known as “that late girl”. 😀
Have a lovely day – I will be back this evening with the “Monday, What Are You Reading” post, but other than that I suspect as it is a holiday, it will be pretty quiet around here.
I will leave you with this link to my Easter message to all of you 😀


Oh i hate when I try to change one thing, and spend all my precious blog time changing many things and going back and forth etc. Hope you find something you like.
Enjoy your Sunday and Happy Easter!
P.S. you won my gently read copy of The Recipe Club. So drop me a line with your address and I’ll get it out to you.
HI Jenny – Happy Easter! I will shoot you an email – that is a book I have been wanting to read! 😀
Oh, I like the new header and background! I didn’t want to mention the previous look seemed dark for you…lol. I like it when you capture some of your images, especially when they are coffee and books.
Enjoy your day!
HI Laurel! Happy Easter! I have one more header I want to try but ran out of time this morning… still not sure if the green background is the sage I am looking for… *sigh* 😀
This one is nice, too; I like the green you had earlier, but this works, too. Like the bicycle, since that is like a signature event for you.
I’m having a PJs day too! :–) Happy Easter!
Happy Easter Jill! 😀
I actually like the header.
Happy Easter, Sheila!
Thanks Kathy, it is the better of the ones I was trying this morning… I think the header changed about 6 times earlier….LOL
I like the header, too. 🙂 I hope you have a wonderful Easter – and that spring will finally arrive for you soon!
Love the green- hopefully spring will soon follow! Happy Easter
Kerri
The son did come out earlier Kerri and the snow stopped….. YAY!!!!! 😛
Hope the snow stops soon. Happy easter Sheila!
It did Freda – it did! Happy Easter!
I like the header and the green! Happy Easter, Sheila.
Thanks Mary 😀 Happy Easter!
I like the new look but I missed the purple. Or just didn’t notice?
Thanks for the card and Happy Easter to you too!
I love purple too….. between the sage and the musty purple look… those are my blog colors 😀 Happy Easter!
Happy Easter! Like you, our home is child free this year so we aren’t doing anything Easterish.. instead we are relaxing, getting projects done. I just blogged about all the baking and my martha moments.
I hope you enjoyed your day! I’m thrilled that I might have a minute to start blogging more I have a bank of book reviews done and so much Africa stuff to share (the prep).
I’m rambling… have a great night!
Happy Easter, those jibjab cards are too funny. I like the bike pic in your header 🙂
Happy Easter! I like the header a lot 🙂
Sometimes quiet holidays are the best one, Sheila. We had one like that too. Nice and peaceful!
I am so used to them now (and love them) that I dont know if I could do the big family thing 😀
I like the header. A bike means a journey, plus you love to bike so it’s you. 🙂 Hope you had a lovely Easter, though I know you’re missing your boys.
The picture is actually my bike… which for me, makes it even better 😀
