Welcome!

Welcome to all of my blog readers that have come over to the new blog already!  I hope you love the new blog (and domain name) as much as I do.  I’m still tweaking a few things here and there so if you see something I should add or do (or mess up, haha!), you can now contact me directly via email right through a contact form in the sidebar!   There’s so many plug-ins and things I wasn’t able to have on the free wordpress blog that are now available to me with this new hosted blog.  I signed up with Bluehost and love it, as well as loving the price and how easy it was to pick a domain name and the easy install for the wordpress hosted site.  You can check it out via my affiliate link:

A few other things in the sidebar is a sign-up if you use Bloglovin to follow blogs as well as a new sign-up if you like to get an email notification every time I publish a new post. Personally, I prefer to use Feedly to keep up on all the blogs I read.  When Google Reader went by the wayside….I had to find a new replacement, I tried bloglovin and a couple others but ended up really loving Feedly.  I use the FREE version.  Here’s a link to all of their tutorials on how to use Feedly.

On each post if you hover over the preview image, you’ll see a pint it button as well as links to share on whatever social media site you use at the bottom of each post.  I’ve noticed that posts are being shared on Facebook a lot, so thank you, that’s awesome!

I’ve also been reading up on blogging and have been pinning all of the interesting links I can find on my ‘Free Blog Stuff’ Pinterest board, if you’re thinking of starting a blog or already have a blog and want to take it to the next level, there’s some great links I’ve pinned on this board regarding blogging and social media…you can check that out here:
