Finally Got It Back!!

Thanks to Kimberly and my brain.  Since I was having issues the Revolution Lifestlye, with the sidebars.  I decided to just delete it from my host server to have to upload it again and of course it worked.  Then I was having issues with my content! 

PING! Kimberly, was there to help me get it all straightened out.  She has typed up a few tutorials that I will have snippets of and linked to her, because I found out the other day that there were NONE for this theme so I suggested it to her.

I like the way it looks now I just need to get my header in the right spot and all will be good again.  Oh and don't forget about the ad spots that I have over there on the sidebar.  I will have more details on that as time moves on.

A few things to look forward to are a few giveaways along with reviews. Now that I have might site back to looking presentable I will be mosting a bit more. 

Now I must leave you and tend to my kids and husband. MWAH!

Little Ad Spots!

You see those add spots over there to the right, yeah those.  Well pretty soon I'll be taking paid ads 10 dollars a month.  Right now I have those three up because well the first two I really like and the third won her spot from a contest on Mamma Dawg.   I'll have more details up later but for now, if you would like me to display your sites banner you can send it to me by email in one of the contact forms.  All I ask is that you put Ad in the subject line and place the code in the message area.
