Profile Update

I've lived back in Maryland for over 15 months now. It's a new year and I think it's time to update my blog profile. The profile I've had for years and years.

  Transplanted Yankee raising 2 beautiful daughters and a hubby on a never-ending search for a decent bagel and a slice a pizza in the South. Short and sassy, loyal, funny, slightly sarcastic, practically blind, 40-ish, loves to read, travel, and spend time with family and friends. According to one of my children, I like to wear make-up and party. Still madly in love with (and married to) my high school sweetheart. Samantha Brown has my dream job. I like margaritas, can't stand coconut or banannas. I will do anything for a friend in need. Just don't mess with my family. I'm very, very protective. Pretty much a non-BS kind of gal; I have no patience for drama, ignorance or stress-inducing activities or behavior. 

 Let's break it down a bit:  

Yup.  Still considered a Yankee.

Yup.  Still raising 2 beautiful daughters and a hubby.

My search for a decent bagel and a decent slice of pizza has been successful.  

Yup.  Still short.  

Yup.  Still sassy.  And extremely loyal, funny, slightly sarcastic and practically blind. 

40-ish is debatable. 

Yup.  Still love love to read, travel and spend time with my family and friends.

Yup.  Still wear make-up.  

Yup.  Still madly in love with (and married to) my high school sweetheart. 

Yup.  Still like margaritas

Coconut or banannas will never touch these lips.  

Yup.  I will do anything for a friend in need. 

Yup.  I'm still a Mama Bear.  

Yup.  Still have no patience for drama, ignorance or stress-inducing activities or behavior.

So basically I'm still the same person I've always been, just live in a different town.  

Exciting Blog News

Love Twitter. Love Pinterest. Used to love Facebook, too. Luv, luv, luv to blog. I was so excited to have Munchkinland re-design my blog for me a couple of months ago and luv, luv, luv the results! It's a true reflection of me and who I am. Although sometimes I worry that the header makes me look like a drunk (I'm not. So far from it. Yes, I do enjoy an occasional margarita with the girls but that's about it. Very, very rarely drink wine. I probably have a beer once or twice a year. The title is a play on our last name. Nothing more. And, I was looking for a sassy graphic.). Anyway. I digress. I luv my blog but never really liked the Cos4.blogspot.com thing. I mentioned the other day to Cosmo that I'd like to look into a domain name but really wasn't sure what that was all about. He e-mailed me today and said, "Congratulations! You are now the proud owner of www.MakeMineACosmo.com" Yay!!! Luv my hubby, yes I do! Isn't it great when someone looks out for you and does small, wonderful, meaningful thoughtful things for you???!!!

I do have one small, teeny weeny confession to make. I luv, luv, luv other people's "buttons" on their blog. I always feel guilty if I don't copy it and paste it on my blog. I feel like if someone has gone to the trouble of creating a button and posting it on their blog, the least I could do is copy it on to mine. It just seems like the right thing to do!

Munchkinland

A great big HUGE thank you to Munchkinland Designs for my new look! Jen was an absolute pleasure to work with and I am SO happy with the finished project! I had always been unhappy with the look of my blog and felt that it was not a good representation of who I am as a blogger. And, I'll admit, I had blogger envy. I admired other people's blogs from afar and was always amazed at their creativity. After coveting other folks blog designs, I decided to take the plunge and reach out to Jen. I liked the looks of some of her other work and decided she was the gal for me. Now I have a blog I am super duper happy with and extremely proud of!

Please check out Jen's website and update your blog as soon as you can! The world will be such a happier place if we all have pretty blogs! http://www.munchkinland-designs.com/
