Who designed your blog?

I'm currently using a template from btemplates.com but would really like to create something custom. One of my main goals is to create a blog design around a custom header which really depicts the theme of my blog.

I do have some "trial by fire" graphic design ability but the only software I have is MS Publisher.

I'm debating trying to create something myself or finding someone else to do it (but can't afford a lot.)

The other consideration is that I own my URL (http://www.beamingbalance.com) so maybe I just go the traditional web design route and link to Blogger. (Right now the URL redirects to blogspot.com)

Totally confused and wishing I was just a little more tech savvy!

Someday I'll do a major overhaul. :-); ▶ Reply to This

And I like the clean style of minima.

However, sometimes I do wonder if I shouldn't do more to distinguish my blog from other blogs.; ▶ Reply to This

I donate a lot of time to designing blogs for people. With the way the economy is right now I think one thing should be free. Everyone deserves a pretty blog:); ▶ Reply to This

Childhood fears

Yesterday we went to the pediatrician to talk about Queenie's habit of not sleeping through the night and her new trick of waking up at 3 am and being awake for two hours at a time. Wide awake. And nothing helps her get back to sleep. It wasn't our…

No, I don't believe it is okay. We try to teach our kids not to hit other people, for any reason; it wouldn't make sense then for parents then to turn around and hit, for any reason either. We can't say one thing and do another. Just my 2 cents! Er…
