Finally Finished

Okay, so I think I finally have my blog set up the way I want it. I'm finally happy with the way it looks. I've spent hours on the stupid header, and I really have no clue what I'm doing. The header itself came from Shabby Blogs. Then I had to play with it, adjust the color, add my own title, and make it look the way I wanted which was all fairly simple. Then I added it to my blog, and that was where the simple stopped. The header was off center, and if you know anything about me then you know that I was completely and totally freaked out by that. I like balance, and I'm an insane perfectionist, and the whole off-centeredness thing was not working for me. (You will notice that made up words such as "centeredness" don't bother me in the least . . . my insane perfectionism can be somewhat selective.)

So then I entered the world of html. Then I had a panic attack remembering the college class where I designed my own webpage using only codes, and if one thing was slightly off the whole webpage was messed up. That was a long stinkin' time ago. Then I closed out the html and tweeted a desperate cry for help. Then Ruthie at Bogue and Weejer came to my rescue with instructions on how to fix the header. I was so far off. I mean I was seriously far off. Now Ruthie is my hero. And you should really go check out her blog sometime. I'm not just saying that because she saved my blog (or at least my sanity). I rarely read her blog that I don't crack up laughing.

So that's it. I think I'm finally done changing my blog. At least for a while . . .

Totally switching gears, our Bulgarian caseworker left me a message today letting me know that they are expecting more referrals to come in before Bulgaria takes their Winter Holiday. With every referral that comes we move up the list. Yay for Bulgaria kicking it into gear! Keep it up!
