Announcements

My new blog layout is an announcement! But for those of you who only look on Google Reader, I thought it best to post that we are expecting #4 in August of next year! I was waiting to tell my husband and kids until Christmas but found out that Jared's Christmas present to me was going to be something you cannot do while you are pregnant... so I decided to tell them a week early so that Jared didn't waste his money!! The kids are super excited and are already spoiling me because, well, I have a baby in my tummy.

***Sorry to my siblings... I am sure you are not going to like that you are finding out from my BLOG that I am pregnant. But - you know I love you!

Also, yesterday Shade clothing had a conference call to inform its personal shoppers that they are dissolving the personal shopper program. This means that I will no longer be associated with the company :( . I am very sad about the decision and the effects I will feel in my own life and with my family. Namely, no more free clothes!! (I earned lots of incentives.) I have been with Shade for almost three years, and have built a clientele of over 600 customers. I love Shade’s products and the company and have enjoyed every minute I have been with them. I have felt a real loss and I am going to miss this job. It will be hard for me to replace... oh, but I am not looking to replace it either at this point... so no recommendations for a work-from-home opportunity please! I've already had about 10 from my customers today!

***And does anyone know how to create a little space in between my header and the date of my first post? It is too close but I can't figure out where to change the html. Thanks!

CONGRATULATIONS MELANIE! That is wonderful!

Hi Mel, congratulations!

To get the space you want in your blog, you're going to need to edit your template html. Go to Layout, then click the "Edit HTML" tab. Scroll waay waay down (almost to the bottom), and just before the line that reads

<div id='content-wrapper'>

add as many <br/> tags as you want to get the spacing you'd like. Call me if you have any troubles!
