'Tis The Season...

...for redecorating!

I've made some changes to my blog design and decor, so for all of you subscribers to Google Reader--you really should click on over to the real thing and check out the excitement!  Okay, maybe it's not that exciting for you, but personally, I. Love. It.  Yep, I just went all super-cool on you and used the periods for emphasis.  What is the world coming to?

You will notice that my blog now has TWO sidebars.  That's right, thanks to the lovely people over at The Cutest Blog On The Blog, I managed to edit the HTML in my template and create TWO glorious sidebars to fill up with all manner of widgets, gadgets, and whatnot.  I have not yet had time to organize my sidebars and add new things yet, so don't be alarmed to see things moving around or magically appearing and disappearing.

And, yes, I decorated for Christmas BEFORE Thanksgiving.  I know, I know.  But I just couldn't wait any longer!  I've been wanting to redesign my blog with three columns for a while now and once I started playing around with it tonight, I couldn't help but go all the way.  My previous fall background didn't fit my three-column layout, so I was forced to choose a Christmas theme.  Okay, okay.  Who am I kidding?  I absolutely LOVE Christmas and pretty much NEVER make it to Thanksgiving without listening to Christmas music.  This holiday-themed designed makes me smile big every time I see it.  I hope it does the same for you.

I even added a few of my favorite Christmas songs into the music player (which is currently located in my top right sidebar, but I make no promises as to where it will be located when you try to find it!), so just press the play button if you'd like to add a little holiday serenade to your blog-reading experience.

Enjoy your visit and let me know if something is hard to find, doesn't work right, or needs a little tweaking.  I have no idea how to fix those things, but there is a chance I can find out!
