I'm back!

Well, it's been a week since I've posted, dear bloggy friends.  Did you think I fell off the face of the earth?

Luckily, I didn't :).

I didn't have time to blog because I spent some time last week learning the basics of HTML.  Yes, believe it or not, I have been a blogger for several months now and knew absolutely nothing about HTML.  So I ordered some CD-ROM lessons and completed the first CD (7 lessons).  So now I know more about formatting text on webpages, making tables (i.e. columns), etc.  Stuff I always wondered how to do.  Obviously I haven't made any changes to my blog yet, but I plan to in the near future.

I also got the wonderful opportunity to go to a women's retreat with my church this weekend.  We had a huge cabin for all 35 or so of us and really had a good time.  Our speaker was awesome and taught us how to retreat, refocus, relearn and reprioritize our time so we can have a better relationship with Jesus, with our husbands and with our families.  She told great stories and kept our attention.  But the best part of the weekend was spending time with friends - both old and new.  I also loved talking with the more mature women of the church, those with grandkids, who have been where I am...and survived :).

I hope you had a good weekend too.  Look for my very first giveaway soon!!
