So....
Welcome to the new, and I hope you'll agree, improved digs. What do y'all think?
As y'all may know, I'm participating in the 31 Days to Build a Better Blog Challenge. One of the tasks was to create an editorial calendar for your blog, which I did. In the process of reading about forming an editorial calendar, I saw a couple of experts who recommended themed days. They claim readers like that. A lot. Although, most of the popular blogs I read don't do that. Now. Perhaps they did in their infancy, but I don't know. All I know is this... I generally find themed days kind of cheesy and not really my style.
But guess what? I think change is good and I feel like spicin' things up around here. So, to that end, I'm going to give themed blog posts a trial run. There's no guarantee that I won't have a random I-must-post-this-today-even-though-it's-Recipe-Day-and-this-is-not-a-recipe-day here and there, but for the most part, I'm going to try and stick to this for a while and see how it works.
Here's my current plan:
Of course, I want to know what you think.
Are themed posts a good idea? Like? Dislike? What do you do on your blog?
And what do you think of the new design?
Do share!
P.S. A shout out to Jacqui of Wacky Jacqui's Designs for the new look!

Here's my current plan:
Musical Mondays: Review or share a new band, piece of music I love, or video.
Tasty Tuesdays: Recipes, kids’ party info, or information about food and health; relate to parenting
Wordy Wednesdays: A longer feature on parenting
Take That Thursdays: A review or opinion piece
Fabulous Fridays: Shout Outs or Inspiring Things and/or People
Spontaneous Saturday: Anything goes
Spiritual Sunday: Faith, inspiration, and reflection
Of course, I want to know what you think.

I am stopping by from the SITS Cocktail Party! I go back and forth about theme days and doing memes.
