Adjustments
Heh, redecorating the blog is cheaper than redecorating the house. No dropcloths are required; there are no paint fumes, no sawdust, no pushing around of heavy furniture. I've never done such a drastic re-do! It's almost like a brand new house. I've also done some paring down of the sidebar items; if there's something you're looking for, you'll likely find it on the Blog Links page.
It's like an open house! Have a glass of virtual punch with your cookies and take a look around. ; )
I love it! Very clean and inviting. I put a little vodka in my punch - tee hee!!!!

I like it - it's very nice. Or, as we say in these parts, it's "right some good".

Very nice. I especially like the new font and white background on the entries. CONGRATULATIONS!

YAY! I love it!

It looks terrific! Can I have a martini instead of punch?

I love what you've done with the place. It's like opening the window and letting the spring air in.

I like it very much as well, and it takes less time to load -- bonus! Great job!

Vickie do you have any idea where I can get that pattern booklet that Oddfellow is in? I love your little beans and really want one myself.

It is looking good around here! I wanna change my look, I was just thinking about it the other day when I was updating my sidebar, how boring my blog is. Bad enough the posts are a snooze, you may as well have something to look at while you are there. :)

Wow - I thought I had come to the wrong house. LOVE the new look. I loved the old look, too. Congrats on the renovation.

The blog looks very nice! I need to re-do mine too. It's looked the same forever. Ho-hum.

Love this new design! yah for you!

You've been a busy lady. I love the new look!

Love the new look but a margarita would work so much better than punch for me.

It looks lovely; very clean and tidy . . . just the way I like them. I'll be honest, and say that some blogs are too cluttered for me to read. Sounds shallow, I know, but reading something with color changes and wacky fonts on safety orange background is hard on the eyes. This looks so purty.

Looks smashing!
Posted by: Beth | 10 January 2008 at 05:52 PM
Such a fresh, clean look, Vicki! I need to do some serious blog updating too, but I'm still busy pushing things around the house. ;-)

The re-do is fabulous. I love the new banner. Being blogless, your new look makes me green with envy. Loved the cookies.

Does look very nice - simpler and classic. Much easier to look through the side bar stuff.
Thank goodness I haven't had my blog long enough to even have finished my first set up, much less rearranging. I have enough real house stuff going on right now.

Looks great.

I like what you've done with the place. Nice and bright!

I like your new look! The double sidebar is very attractive.
Posted by: Beth S. | 11 January 2008 at 11:18 AM
Fresh look for a new year, very nice!
Still not on the AbC list but you've been busy redecorating.
Posted by: Elizabeth | 11 January 2008 at 12:35 PM
Love the new digs! Looks great!
Posted by: Tam | 11 January 2008 at 08:47 PM
OK, I'll have just one cookie with my punch, 'cause I put on about 5 pounds over the holiday season.
Hey! I liked the old decor, but the new place looks great. (Is it OK if I use an emoticon around here? Grumble. Grumble.)
