We Interrupt This Story…

Just wanted to let my few (but faithful) readers know of a few changes to the blog:

*  MAKEOVER!!

*  Archives!  I imported my old MSN Spaces blog and now have all the entries I’ve ever blogged – starting in 2005.  They are pretty funny (for me) to look back on.

*  Labels to find entries faster

*  You can now be my follower – just remember to sign up at the side of the page – that way you can know when I update.

*  New tabs on the top – all pages coming soon!

Let me know what you think – if I don’t get back to you its because my brain has exploded from trying to sort everything out!

Conclusion of the story tomorrow, and then I have some ideas in the pipeline to start blogging a bit more. 

My New Diggs

Hello!  I have finally made my new blog “presentable”, from this time on I will be posting my daily life on there so if you have an RSS feed or a link on your page please change it to my new one

See you there!!!

The Decision

I started my blog nearly 4 years ago to the month.  I started a blog when no one really knew what they were, but found it a great way to share my life and practice my writing – two things which I love.
In that time I’ve been engaged, single, dated, been engaged again, moved to PA, moved to England, and lived life here in England for nearly 3 years.
I have a certain loyalty to Windows Live Blogging, but have found myself thinking of moving my blog to another site – for ease of use and because I am a girl, I like to accessorize (something I cant do very well here).   The main reason I am changing is because at some point I want to have my blog made into a book, for me, and Windows doesn't do that.
So I am going to be moving my blog.  I could never not blog, but I think it will be easier to have it through the same site as my fertility blog.
I will keep this blog, and as and when I “launch” my blog I will put all the info right here.
So sorry Windows, but I think it’s time we broke up… don’t worry it’s not you… it’s me.

A Few Changes...

As you can see I've changed just a few things on my blog - some you wont even notice.  But you might notice:
* The counter -- spread the word about my blog please, I love to see that number and I love to know that people are actually reading what I am writing.  Comments are VERY welcome.
* New blog list -- I have made a complete list of the blogs I read regularly - and by regularly I mean on a daily basis -- I love them all and feel like I know every one of the women who write them.  They are worth reading.  Plus it helps you get into the "inner workings and circle of the blog world" which I love, and relish watching from the side - like at a dance, when all the popular, pretty girls are dancing with the hot guys and I just stand and watch, living through them... anyway I am rambling but , read those blogs they are lovely!

...And the number one reason why people do blogs.... They work for theGovernment!

Okay so... why do a blog?  I guess my reasons are two-fold -- wait, more than two...
1. The first reason is that, here at work I have an ample amount of time on my hands.  So, I think to myself, why not start a blog and decorate it in pink and give other people who are bored at work something to do...
2.  The second reason is that very often, as my closest friends can attest, things happen to me that are worth writing down.  I figure this is a good way to keep up the "Jamie's crazy stories" archive... Amy will be most happy with this reason - and probably least happy with the next one...
3.  For the third and probably most important reason, I plan on moving in the near future. I thought this might be the best way to keep in touch with all my loved ones - internationally.  Depending on what side of the world I am on family on both sides can be kept up to date.
So here I am writing my life on the computer...
