My Newly Reconstructed Blog, and an Old Blog I found

My blog is now finally back for public viewing. To those who tried to visit this blog and got a message that said: "This blog is open to invited readers only", that was because my blog was "under reconstruction". Please read the previous post.

So here it is folks! The new look and the new address. You like? I love how clean it looks now. I especially love the header. I know it's nothing special but I made it and I like how it turned out considering that I have next to zero knowledge in graphic design. Now, I just have to change the pictures on the side bar and my profile picture because they're pretty old. As for the new blog address, I wanted to combine my name and Brandon's but the brandonandlaura address is already taken, so is brandon-laura. I was a little surprised to know that there's are least 2 other couples out there whose names are Brandon and Laura. And guess what I found when I typed brandonlaura.blogspot.com to see if somebody already owned it? Our super old blog! It's almost 5 years old and haven't been updated that both me and Brandon literally forgot that we had a blog together. Brandon made it when we were only engaged and back then I had no idea what a blog was. I love how reading that blog brings back sweet memories, and it motivates me to be more active in blogosphere.

So LBCarree.blogspot.com it is! Why it works? Because not only LB stands for Laura [and] Brandon, it's also the initials of my maiden name.

Changes

Happy New Year to you! (yes you, my reader :P) I hope you had a wonderful 2010. New Year resolutions taped somewhere in the house? Ha. I remember when December 2008 was about to come to it's end, Brandon and I wrote down our goals for 2009. We like to write down goals instead of resolutions although they're pretty much the same. I taped my list on our bedroom wall and Brandon taped his on the side of his computer monitor.

Speaking of goals, I'll try to update this blog more often this year. Maybe at least once a week? So wish me luck. Also, I'll make the following changes to my blog:

-Overall blog look. I'll make it more simple and more clean-looking. If I haven't mentioned it yet, I'm a minimalist. So less is always more for me. Always.

-Blog address. I didn't wanna do this but I'll be using the address of this blog for my photo blog. So I have to think of some new address. And maybe change the blog title too. Suggestions?

What are your goals and planned changes for this year?

I'm back!

Oh my heck! I can't believe that it's been 5 months since I last posted an entry here. I swear I almost could not remember my blog address when I decided to make a post today.

So let me give my excuse(s) for being away that long. Well, I've been back to working since the last couple of weeks of May. I started with an on-call position, a month later I became full-time. Two months after being hired for a full-time position, I found a second job which is part-time. So I've been working my tush off 64 hours a week since August. Whew!

What happened during the last 5 months?

-3rd year wedding anniversary on August 15

-We moved from Holladay to Midvale by the end of August.

-like mentioned, I found a second job and that was in August too.

I guess that's all it. Or maybe I just can't recall what happened in July and June.

So, see you again, uhmm...next year? :P

One More

The title is about me creating another blog. That means I've had blogs from different free blog domains before. I made maybe 2 with Wordpress, one with Multiply, also blogged on Friendster, and I don't know how many blogs I've created with blogger already. None of all those blogs survived.

My interest in blogosphere came alive when one Sunday someone at Church spoke at the sacrament meeting about keeping records of our lives that we can pass on to our children and grandchildren for them to read about us. This guy said about taking advantage of the high technology we are blessed with today by writing a journal online aside from keeping a handwritten diary so that just incase the latter gets blown away by a strong hurricane wind or washed away by the flood:P, the records are still there.

My first few posts will be imports from 2 of my old blogs.

So we'll just see how long this one will exist :).♥
