We Got A Makeover

DSC_0434 (1)

I’m baaaaaaack.

First off thank you for being so patient. I am not even going to go into the behind the scenes that’s been going on to get the site back up.  Every day I would rock quietly in a corner on a rocking chair repeating to myself: “Think of a happy place. Think of a happy place.” (I joke but you get the point)!  I am just relieved that it’s done.   Some of you know that I have been blogging since 2009 and I procrastinated for over one year about updating Where Did U Get That but I needed to.  Badly.  There were years of content that was buried so far back that not even I could remember what I had posted.   Basically – it was time.

Hopefully you will find everything a lot easier.  The menus across the top point you to different parts of the site and the search function on the top right was designed with you in mind.  Have a rummage around and let me know your thoughts.   If there is anything that does not work I’ll have it checked out.

Note: All my old comments are being added back daily.

I am just relieved to be back online and back to blogging.  At bloody long last..!

      Yes they are being worked on. Some have come back if you look at past posts but it’s a work in progress till they are all back : )

    It looks so clean!!! Love the look. Have a much deserved bottle of wine now and open THAT BOX

    • Karen Blanchard says:

      I did as you well know and I love it. I looked at Michael and said ‘I need a whiskey after this. NEAT’

    Nice clean layout! I like the “OMG THERE’S MORE” search option. If you don’t mind me asking, why did you switch over from blogger? I’ve noticed a lot of people eventually doing this. I’m working on something and I cannot decide between blogger and wordpress. I figured blogger would be best for beginners but it just seems like a lot of headache in the future to switch over to wordpress.

    • Karen Blanchard says:

      Thank you. I like that search option too. I switched because I wanted more layout options and to just present my work better. Blogger worked fine for me for a long time and to be honest it served me well for years. Good luck with what you decide. I’m brand new to WP so time will tell!

    It seems to me that it resembles a lot to your house after the make over: so bright !

      That last line has stuck with me. Thank you

    So happy you’re back! I have been checking daily! (ok, sometimes a few times a day!)…Site looks amazing and much more user friendly! Congratulations! Jewelle

    • Karen Blanchard says:

      ahhh that you Stylista! It’s been a labor or love. There’s still more that’s being added, fixed and tweaked so I reckon it will be 100% in a couple of weeks but for now I’m glad just to be back!

  6. Karen Blanchard says:

    Oh crap I’d be scared to even suggest what to do. I would take it to a hat shop that does cleaning to keep it’s shape and make it look brand new again

    I can now stop feverishly refreshing the page every minute. Glad to see you back!

  8. Lera says:

    Finally! Looks good, and easy to comment.

  9. Anne-Sterre says:

    Glad you are back. I have been refreshing a few times a day. It looks so good 🙂

    Hi Karen, I know this is an old post but I was wondering how are you liking wordpress compared to using blogger all those previous years? And would you still recommend blogger? Oh I tried to click on the contact link but it does not seem to be working for me. Hope you cant respond.
    Thanks!
