My Comcast decided to crap out on me last night so I am super behind with blogging…again! So bear with me – I should be back in business tomorrow.
Life gets in the way
Sorry guys and girls, but there are a few things on my plate this week that are going to make blogging a little harder than usual! So I hope you all had a great Easter weekend and enjoy your week ahead – I’ll be back before you know it next week!
If you miss me too much, check out my VEDA (Vlogging Every Day in April) videos on Vimeo!
Till then –
FYI
Just wanted to pop in real quick to let you guys know that the blog might be a little slow for the next couple of weeks, but I have a very valid reason: we officially became homeowners this week! We are beyond thrilled but are going to be really busy as we remodel our new home. We hope to be move-in ready by next month, but that means a lot of hard work leading up to moving day which also means not a lot of time to blog.
I may be completely wrong and be able to update as usual, but I figured I’d just give a little heads up so that if I’m a bit absent here and there you all know it is mostly likely because I’m comparing laminate flooring samples, buying toilets or agonizing over paint chips.
And no worries, even if I am not posting consistently, I will be documenting the whole process to share with all of you along the way!
Happy birthday Melificent!
Melificent is a year old!
Although all my major plans fell through: no one submitted any videos (sad face), the hubs is backed up & doesn’t have time to work on a new layout for me (boo) and things have just gotten too complicated for an anniversary photoshoot, I still didn’t want my one year anniversary to come and go without any mention.
When I started this blog, it was mainly out of Livejournal withdrawals. I needed somewhere, something to write my ideas, thoughts and just general rants in. I had spent too many years with a blog and felt empty without one. I never imagined so many people would be reading about my life and my interests, much less following it religiously as some of you have admitted to doing. I also thought the idea of posting daily was really daunting, I figured it would drain me and I would eventually get sick of it and just give up. Never ever would I have thought that it would be anything but a chore. Granted, I’ve had my moments where life catches up to me and I can’t post regularly, but those have been far and few between. I genuinely love my blog and look forward to writing posts to share with all of you.
My first year has been more than I could ever dream, and I hope Melificent only continues to grow. I have a feeling my second year will be amazing – I have a lot of projects on the horizon and can’t wait to share them all with you here on the blog!
I love you all and want to thank each and every one of my readers for making me a valuable member of the blogosphere!
Feel free to share your thoughts & feelings about my blog in the comments!
Almost 1!
It’s pretty unbelievable to me, but Melificent is going to be one year old in February! I can’t tell you how much fun I have had in the past year managing this blog. It’s been my stress relief tool in so many occasions and it’s been able to broaden my horizons in terms of creativity. Plus, I’ve been introduced to so many beautiful blogs that inspire me on a daily basis as well as push me to strive to be just as amazing with my own. I’ve even gotten some really great emails from people that genuinely enjoy reading Melificent, which is so ridiculously flattering.
Like I mentioned in my 2010 wishes, I would love to give this blog more attention and hope to accomplish that in Melificent’s 2nd year in business. Kicking that off will be a redesign of the blog by the hubs next month as well as a little video project I’d like to introduce to you all here:

It’ll be fun!
