Weekending & New Blog Design


Another Monday is upon us but let's decide to be happy and beautiful together. Life is better that way, right? I hope the snow and blizzards up north weren't too detrimental and hopefully cleared up a bit by now. We had the coldest weekend for the year in Central Florida but no snow.

I had a relaxing Friday evening at home with some Thai food for dinner from Sea Thai, which has been voted best Thai restaurant in Orlando year over year. I picked up K from the airport and we just hung out at home with Lola.



On Saturday I went to the hairdresser to get some highlights done and got my hair curled. Luckily the curls lasted up until today even with the cold weather.



On Saturday night the Central Florida girls (Kate, Kerri, Pamela and myself) had a blogger meet up with Ashley from Wandering Weekenders and her husband visiting from Texas. We had dinner at The Cowfish, a sushi and burger restaurant in Universal's City Walk.




After dinner we headed over to Red Coconut for a drink ~ moscow mules were the drink of the night for myself and some of the girls. As you can see we were all bundled up in winter clothes because the low was in the 30's which is deathly cold for our Florida and Texas blood. LOL



It was so fun meeting Ashley and her husband! I hope to visit them in Texas sometime later this year.

Most of Sunday was spent figuring out how to redesign my blog and having a mini panic attack while doing so after almost crashing the whole site. I'm super happy with how it turned out considering I have zero design or HTML skills...well now I have a little of both. It's not 100% complete but that's all my patience could handle in one day. I'll also be re-branding my blog with a different (but similar) name in the next week or two since I bought a new domain. If you run into any errors while visiting my blog, please let me know!

How was your weekend?

  20. The new blog design looks great! I don't have much skill in HTML either, so major props for being able to do everything by yourself. Thanks so much for meeting up with us on Saturday! I had the best time actually getting to talk to y'all in person instead of over the interwebs! Hopefully it's warmer in Orlando than when I left it! They're saying we'll be in the 70s today in Texas! Such crazy bipolar weather!

  24. Love your design, and it's amazing you did this yourself! I'm not judging you on being cold...lows in the 30s are pretty miserable, I think, wherever you live!

  28. I agree, life is much better when you're happy. I don't think I've ever eaten at a Thai restaurant. I want to go to your hairdresser - love the zombie surroundings!
