Google is NOT Liking me Today!

Well, since this is my review blog, I will complain about Blogger and Google here, lol.  This is a constant struggle between Google and my blogs. Thanks to http://www.mommyblogdesigns.com/, I got some huge help with my menu bar this morning. Even though I cannot attempt the complete menu bar makeover until Google decides to lighten up a bit!
Now whenever I try to comment on my own comments, or comment on other blogs, it tells me I must log out and back in. Over and over and over again! I think I am going to take a break from trying to fill in my blogs today, I can't participate in bloghops today, nor can I participate in my http://www.voiceboks.com/ activities, again, today.
It seems that every time I have any time to spend on my huge "Internet To Do list", Google is acting up and messing with me. Is it personal? lol, Please let up, Google!
The weather here is very bad, we are flooded and there is nothing but rain and rain and more rain, over the next 5 days! The schools are letting out early, and already delaying tomorrow, and I can't really get my errands done today. I was looking forward to being able to cross a big chunk of this list off this evening!
I have read so many good posts today, and wrote so many comments. My Google name appeared as I was writing them, and when I finish and try to submit, it pops up with a page that says I must log out of my account and log back in! So, that's what I do, then it happens again.
I guess I'll work on a few reviews, my Youtube channel, and some housework today.
If any of you know any secrets about Google, please comment below!
Wish me luck in the flooding, I don't believe floods are covered under our homeowners insurance, of course. All I know is that our garage is flooded due to the township not taking care of their end of the issue out there, and our sump pump is on it's last days. Our house sits at the bottom of the hill, so all the water comes straight down to our house, and hmmmmmmm I have not heard the sump pump running for a good hour. My husband just informed me that I must get downstairs and make sure the motor is above water! Help me please, lol! I'm not a fan of the creepy sump pump room, or the giant drop to get to the bottom of that room, so I better find a super duper flashlight, and I better see that motor!

I Messed Up My Neat Page Tabs!

If you are here visiting today, I apologize in advance for the page tabs on my page!
I finally had a few minutes to start filling in my blog, and I have a notebook filled with reviews to type in under each of these tabs, and I attempted to add a page for mu husband.
Well, I have no clue what I did, but I emailed a professional to help me!
With http://www.mommyblogdesigns.com/, Ro Littles' site, and reputation, this will be fixed soon. I noticed she is very busy over there, which is good, especially since her designs are fabulous!
I left her a couple messages because I just noticed she has an "Ala Carte" section! This is going to come in handy for me because I always wanted some real cute buttons for Facebook and Twitter, and RSS!!
I wish I had the money right now, cause i also need a design for another blog that I recently started!!
After trying to figure it all in, lol, I may need to win the lotto!

New Blog Design By Ro Little

This super cute blog design you now see on my site, was done by Ro Little!
She is a very talented and very amazing blogger, blog designer, and person.
I have hbeen having several issues with Google in the past weeks, anything from missing posts, to being locked out of my account, to domain name dramas. But as I've posted in the past few days, I believe this is all behind me.
I was most upset about not being able to log into my blogger accounts, not only because I couldn't post, but because i couldn't sit here and smile at my new blog style!
I was fortunate to have signed up for http://www.mommyblogdesigns.com/, newsletters, and received a notice of an upcoming blog redesign giveaway, done by Ro Little.
I have never won anything in my life, lol, always everybody's luck. But I was determined and dreaming that I would win this design.
I entered on Ro's blog, and as always, was very pleased with her class, and talent. I would love to be able to be so artsy and technologically inclined, that i could create something like this. I am not that lucky though. lol.
The days leading to the announcement, I was anxious, checking my inbox, double checking blogs, facebook, http://www.voiceboks.com/, it was driving me crazy!
It would have been such a miracle that I would win this design, and I loved the cute little lady character that came with it.
I have been spending a lot on my "business", and I couldn't figure out a date that I would be able to afford such a cool design. So, I waited and prayed some more.
I already started thinking about the little badge/button that I always wanted for my blogs, and I was brainstorming ideas for my next blog redesign. Then all of a sudden, one morning I was on my Facebook page, www.facebook.com/Busymommylist, and I noticed a post by Ro on my wall!
WOO HOO!!! I WON!! I was so ecstatic, and grabbed my cell to text my mom, my daughter, and my husband, lol. Yes, I believe my husband was probably going the most crazy during this event. He drives truck so he is not home very often, and I texted and texted and talked and talked about this real awesome design, this contest, how I have to have this for this blog, and so on. I'm sure he was very releived when he received my text, "I WON THAT AWESOME BLOG REDSIGN!!!"
Ro was the sweetest, most dear, kindest, girl I've met through networking yet! She is so full of energy, and more then happy to work with you on your redesign.
Not to mention, I've been saving every last blogger help email I've been receiving from her, with the most helpful information for all of our blogs! I plan on having a day to catch up after being locked out, and this is top of my list.
It was much more simple then i thought the whole process would be, very easy, quick, and I just can't get enough of typing http://www.busymommylist.com/, in the address bar, just so I can see my blog!
I have another blog that i am very excited about getting all filled in and fixed up, and I am will be ordering the redesign, through Ro little. She has already started some very cool designs, and layouts, and it will be hard to choose one.
If you aren't a member of her site, please check out her work!
She has very reasonable prices, specials, and is so much fun to work with!
Thank you so much Ro!
You are truly a tremendously talented girl!
You have made me feel much better about my blog, and i will never be able to thank you enough!
