Let me start by saying, “WELCOME BACK! I sure have missed chatting with y’all.”
It feels like we’ve been away from each other forever, and in our little blog world, we kind of have. It’s been more than a month since I last posted on here, but as you will soon see, I’ve been busy. Before you go getting all confused on me, let me give a little explanation.
IT’S MOVING DAY!
Last week, I celebrated my second full year as a blogger (man, time sure does fly). I’m big on celebrating milestones, and this was a big one in my book, so I wanted to acknowledge it somehow, but how exactly? As my blogiversary date approached, I spent hour after hour thinking about what I would do to celebrate. I loved last year’s blogiversary tribute, but a reflection post just didn’t seem fitting for this year. I needed something more, something that accurately reflected the change I’ve been feeling in this blog and in myself as a blogger. Then it hit me – I needed a refresh.
For The Love Of was great, but I had visions of grandeur for this blog, and the old name and design just weren’t going to get me to where I wanted to be. I wanted a name that could be fitting for even the most ordinary experience, because really, we all know that something doesn’t have to be extraordinary to inspire or bring happiness. I wanted a tagline that accurately reflected that sentiment, and did so in an elegant way. And I wanted a new style and color scheme that aptly suited me bold and fun, yet laid-back personality. All in all, I wanted this blog to be a little moreĀ me.
With that, please let me introduce you to my new and improved blog – One Fine Day. From here on out, I’ll be posting over on that site, so if you have this URL saved in your favorites, be sure to change it to onefinedayblog.com. I wouldn’t want you to miss anything!
With the fabulous new look will come a few editorial adjustments as well. For starters, I’ll be posting on a more regular schedule (I can’t keep leaving y’all guessing on when you might see a post) – expect two posts a week for the rest of 2013, but I have a few ideas up my sleeve that might increase that number come New Years. I’m also planning to expand my writing and photography abilities so that this blog can hold its own with the best of ’em (just bear with me on this one because achieving that level of awesome may take some time).
So while things may look and feel a little different around here, this is still the same ol’ blog that you’ve come to know and love. I promise. But seriously – because it’s still the same ol’ me (albeit a more determined and more inspired me).
Who’s with me?
