I'm Back!

Hello everyone! Thanks for your many prayers about my huge move, God answered those prayers and helped my family and I get through all the hard work and many hours of driving to Kentucky with relatively little trouble. When we arrived we did have some concerns about when we would be able to move into our new house but everything is going along now, we got the truck unpacked in one day all by ourselves, and are working slowly on unpacking boxes and settling into our new home. I hope to post a bit more about our move a little later in the week.

So I'm officially back in the blogging world but not quite totally back to blogging full time because there's still lots to unpack and I'm expecting this summer will be fairly busy. Film reviews might not come along as swiftly as I'd like because I haven't had much chance to watch anything or even refresh my memory on any old favorites. I am hoping to get a game every week started up again so look for a new game this coming Saturday!

In the meantime you will notice that I have changed the decorations on Old-Fashioned Charm, this time with a Wives & Daughters theme and the orange color is supposed to reflect Summertime.

The March to June 2012 Blog Header was a big hit:

This is the wallpaper I used: 

And my Please Comment button was also received with many giggles:


The previous blog button can be found on the Link To Me page and there's a new blog button that, thanks to the easy to use PicMonkey.com, has a bit more flair than my other buttons have had.

It's good to be back! Thanks for your patience as I make this transition.


What do you think of the new blog design?
Are you a fan of Elizabeth Gaskell's Wives & Daughters?

    *Hugs* I am so glad you're back! And thankful that everything went well concerning your move. I can't wait to here all about it. The moment I opened this page I was very pleasantly surprised with the new theme. It looks absolutely beautiful and I cannot help but be cheered up by the bright colours and Roger Hamley's smiling face!
