I almost forgot that the giveaway ends today, I just have so much in my hands right now. I have not yet read any of the blog entries for this month, but will definitely be doing it tomorrow, as well as post the qualified participants. July 2 I will announce the winner, and will take it from there with the lucky raffle winner. I’m afraid I will not be able to host a makeover this month of July, what with a new meme I’ve inherited and I am now hosting (want to join? head over Beauty Queen Gene for details!), no Paulie to take care of Svet so less time to work, and a LOT of expenses in the horizon, which requires that I need to have both of my hands free for paying ventures. Let’s see what August brings. If it’s not too hectic by then, we’ll resume the giveaway for sure.
My sister Ayie is into blogging now, and has made two blogs, one for herself and one for her son, Elijah. I made Elijah a cute blog layout, derived from the colors of a cute baby shirt we saw at the thrift shop. Hee hee. We loved the colors when we first saw it and I said, “Let’s make him a layout with colors like that”. And now it’s done! I especially liked how the comments section turned out. It’s quite simple but it’s really cute! Click on the badge below tod pay Elijah a visit if you have the time. It would make me, Elijah and Ayie very happy!
I enjoyed working with Mommy Clang on her layout. And I’m doubly glad that she liked what we did with her new look. I don’t know who is more lugi in our arrangement, I really think it was she. LOL! Imagine, she sent me payment in cash AND sent me a gorgeous blouse and cute black shorts that I fell in love with the instant I pried open the package she sent me. If my clients were all like that, what a happy blog designer I would become! LOL. Anyways, please send this lovely lady some love by clicking on the screenshot of her site below to drop by her blog. Love you Mommy Clang!
You’d think that after doing this for sometime now, I’d have an easier time now making codes work the way I want them to. But I guess like everything else in life, coding requires constant learning. You can never be a know-it-all when it comes to codes. It takes a lot of reading, practice, lessons, trial and error just to become a halfway decent coder. And I’m not even a halfway decent coder, mind you. I’m working on just blogs, and I still gets stumped on a code more times than I dare count. I wonder if it would’ve made my life easier if I studied formally for this. I guess it would, and maybe I wouldn’t have to spend so much time being frustrated by not being able to make a code work or furrowing my brows over a puzzling part of a code. Not even the best wrinkle cream can smooth my face when I’m hard at work, I tell you. Paulie mentioned once that I look like a crumpled Mona Lisa when I’m coding my designs. Yikes.
