Bloody flies.
One thing about living in the one-horse town that drives me up the wall.
I am sitting here trying to blog and god knows how but a flurry of flies have arrived - swooping me in every direction. GO AWAY!!!
Excuse me, did I blog that outloud?
I have been thinking of some things I'd like to do with this blog.
One, i wish I could make my photos look prettier.
A lot of blogs I visit have amazing photos and then some writing, amazing photos and then some writing - how does one accomplish this?
Layouts I admire include - well everybody on my blogroll basically.
I do really like the look of the Maisie and More blog - Edwina has a clean layout.... clear pics - nice fonts and some pretty funny stories to boot.
I know beauty is blog deep but I would like to inject a little bit of botox for my blog, just to smooth out a few wrinkly bits. Is anyone qualified in this area?
You might be thinking - "but you have a fancy banner that looks terrific" alas, I cannot take the credit for the genius of my friend Olena. (more about her soon, hoping to interview my very interesting and talented friend when she returns from Nepal and India)
The Cowboy takes pics at work quite often and shows me sunrises and sheep and dust-storms and dogs and I thought to myself he should be snapping some up for my blog! All this talk about the town but no pics!
So I have challenged him to a photo a day for me - I asked for this to be at 11:11am (lucky time) and he is to snap something different each day.
Truth be known I asked him this about 3 weeks ago, but think he set a reminder to do it today, so I hope to unveil some pics of life in the country soon.
It would be good to have a few more pics in my posts other than crazy ones I google and may get arrested for doing so.
I also have some other ideas zooming around in my head... I have jotted down these random thoughts for my blog:
Speed Blogging - I was thinking about all the blogs I love and thought, I wonder if X blog knows about X blog - they really should meet. So am trying to think up a way of introducing blogs I like to other blogs I like
There are bloggers that need to meet.
I could be like a blog match maker.
What do you think?
Any ideas on how I could do this?
Oh look I have to go these flies are a joke. I finally understand those rediculous hats with the corks hanging off them now. I tell you if I had one, I would be shamelessly sporting it as I type this post.
