I never should have done this by myself … ARGH!

I just moved transferred my site from one hosting company to another. It’s finally working … I think!

The back-end all looked fine on Friday night and I thought all was A-OK! Today, after receiving no feedback for a couple of days, I clicked on a couple of links and realized the damn thing was down.

BUT, I figured it out … I hope!

10 Tutorials I am Dying to Try

Posted on 07 April 2009 by MommyKnows

This post has been inspired by ProBlogger and Flexible Dreams. ProBlogger, has inspired me to write a list post. Flexible Dreams inspired the content.

10 Tutorials I am Dying to Try (… just, please don’t let me die trying).

1. I’m a wee bit worried I don’t have the sewing skills for this one, but I know Georgia would *love* a twirly skirt made using this tutorial @ house on hill road.

2. I’d love to attempt a sundress for Georgia from Mr. MK’s old shirt using either this tutorial or even this one.

3. I want and need to master these Top 10 Killer Photoshop Combo Moves.

4. I am going to protect and backup my blog by installing and utilize a wordpress plugin using idiot-proof instructions from Heather (a wordpress wonder). OK … I am not really dying to try this … in fact the thought of it makes me want to HURL, but I’d be crazy not to!

5. I’m not sure why (we don’t need them), but I want to sew a wool diaper cover from an old sweater using this tutorial here.

6. Oh, the things I could create if I used this ‘create elastic shirring’ technique.

7. I’m definitely going to create my own wordpress theme using this tutorial. This one just might do me in.

8. These super cute Easter themed cake pops by Bakerella need to be made before the weekend. Photos to follow soon!

9. I know Georgia would adore adding these deliciously cute felt doughnuts to her stash. They look so easy, I like easy.

10. Last but not least, I NEED to make a rag rug using this great tutorial at This Vintage Chica.

Are there tutorials out there you love, want to try, need to share? I want to know, so make your own list and reference it in the comments OR comment below and leave me links to the ‘how-to’ goodness. Thanks :)

I’ve been busy!

Posted on 07 March 2009 by MommyKnows

I have a secret confession to make! I’m a domain hoarder … I buy them and stash them away, with future plans to turn them all into $ pits! HA … I’ve got about 25 just waiting to become real live wordpress blogs.

One of them was: clothdiapertips.com – I originally bought it to drive traffic to, and up my SEO @ the old place. I figured I should give it a spruce up. So here it is:

Go give it a look over and let me know what you think! WHAT, you’re too busy? … Hmmm … there’s a contest over there!

I’ve been slaving away for a few days, taking photos, writing code, editing templates, writing code, creating graphics, writing code (OMG … writing code). It’s been fun. REALLY.

If any of you are interested in a WordPress blog (it’s the only way to go). If you’ve been wanting your own domain, because you’re sick of all of that .blogspot stuff. I can help. I work cheap … like borsh! Email me or leave me a comment below and I’ll email you!
