A Random Header Image
6th March 2008

fruits of my loins, er, labors

posted in Uncategorized |

I love having a little more free time. I’ve been done at work most days by 2 pm. That’s like, 4 hours of daylight that I get to experience, people! The sun! Comes out during the day! Amazing. I’ve been to the gym this week, took care of some clinic stuff (*ignores the something like 25 clinic visits that still need completion*), and managed to waste a whole bunch more of it.

Wanna see what else I’ve done? jcd1013. Go on, click. I’ll wait for you to ooh and aww.



I know, I know, it’s super, super girly (I promise that it’s more green than pink). But I love it. I had to learn all of the code (it’s been way too long since I did anything resembling webdesign, and I never really learned it properly then either), and I made more mistakes and flubs than you can imagine. At one time, the journal repeated itself 3 times; that was a fun one to figure out. But, if you’ll notice, I now have a drop down link list, a random Anne quote generator (keep refreshing the page, it’s fun), a entry separator, a quick reply text box, a pretty header, 2 sidebars, etc, etc.

The Anne series (books and movies) have always been my series. Since a young girl, I’ve aspired to be Anne, and there’s something about the stories that is a haven of comfort, even now. So, Anne it’ll be.

I’ve still got some tweaks that I want to do, namely rearranging my links and custom filters and uploading more user pics (I’ve had some of them for almost 5 years now. It’s really hard to part!). And I foresee that it’ll take some time getting used to the links that are now on the side of the journal.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on it! Even if it is that I have to get rid of the pink.

    Oooh, pretty, it’s a nice pleasing shade of pink (no objections to the color here) and the green contrasts very well. Great job on the design and header :). I will miss your old design, of course…it’s like a comfy sweatshirt. But I guess you have to eventually replace it with a nice Packers hoodie after wearing the old one for so long ;).

    Analogies aren’t my friend tonight (though the thermometer isn’t either, it shouldn’t be 8° in March!).

    I certainly have no objection to the pink. I loved the series as a child, with its themes of friendship and rebirth. And optimism. It seems counter-intuitive to me to have the links over there, but you have to do what works for you, right? I am in awe of your coding skills. The header is lovely and the title suits you. “Kindred Spirits” is just perfect.

    Oh, I love it. It is very girly, but they are such pretty colors. I love the Anne quote generator! I’m going to need to reread those books again. *g*

    The change is lovely but it doesn’t load right in my browser (IE). The header and sidebars are at the top and all the posts are at the bottom

    • 2025 – Quilts! 01/07/2026
      For Christmas, my sister and I made National Park quilts for my parents, sister and brother-in-law, and niblings. 6 of them were small lap quilts, with a simple print, batting, and a backing that we sewed. The last was a queen size quilt for my sister’s camping trailer – it was a challenge putting it […]
