cheers, bethani - the blog

i know, i know.. two blogs you ask??  I decided to hop over and start a second blog so I can snag, the Cheers, Bethani domain - well hopefully soon it will be www {dot} cheersbethani {dot} {com, net or something totally cool!}.    I can't wait!

I'm also hoping to save enough funds (outside of the wedding, theres not alot left!) to get a ETSY layout going.   Right now its the same layout as my regular blog, but hopefully with wishful success and a little luck on my side, I can afford all the ETSY layout pretties soon.

I really want my ETSY store to be a success.  Its something of my own little baby, so nobody really wants anything better for their baby than success right?

It will follow my ETSY store - new items, sales, feature people I find, things I love, etc.  All about ETSY basically.  And maybe a few little tiffs here and here from ETSY gone awry. 

So hop on over to Cheers, Bethani! and say hi!

Cheers,

i miss you..but should i?

Dearest blog,

I do miss you alot lately.  It was a good way to release my thoughts and feelings about life.  You were also a good way to show the world what's happening in my life.  I somewhat feel as though I should make a comeback, but of a different kind..  Maybe not so much of the inspiration and randomness, and more of things with meaning and thought.  Maybe just all things ETSY related, happenings in mine and the misters lives (including fun family and friend moments) and things of how I'm feeling.  And leave it at that.  Have a few giveaways sponsored by those close to the ♥, and possibly giveaway a few items myself.  Should I blog?

It is such a hard choice to make, as I do want to come back, I really do.  You're my outlet.  My source of advertisement for Cheers, Bethani.  A way to connect with people, close and far. 

But should I really blog?  I feel the heart strings tugging towards a comeback.  They are tugging away..  But theres a slight bit of resistance. 

I'm going to try for a time and see how things go.  No more popularity contest, it is what it is.  No more guilt trips, it is what it is.  No more frustration with words.  IT IS WHAT IT IS!

I'm back friends! Better now and ready for wedding fun, ETSY success and loads of moments with those I love!

Cheers,

its that time again - spring time!

Hi my loyal readers!

Things have been crazy since I blogged last with the countdown to the wedding getting closer.

But this post is quick - in honor of the springing ahead an hour this week - yea I said it, we are losing an hour of sleep this weekend, my ETSY shoppe, Cheers, Bethani!, will be offering 15% off any item.  Use coupon code: "SPRING"  so tell your friends, tell your family, tell your dogs and cats even.

I also am looking into maybe doing some paper goods in the ETSY shoppe as well such as gift tags, thank you tags, etc.  Thoughts??

I miss you all my friends and hope my mind will be decided soon as whether or not to return as a regular blogger or not.


Cheers from Texas!,

its a long time coming...


a la
I started this blog a few years ago, blogging a little here and a little there, with only more recently having my blog become apart of my every day life. I thought my blog would bring lots of happiness, but instead its brought lots of other feelings.  Feelings of anxiety of the right words to say, feelings of frustration when nothing seems to be panning out the way I want them to, feeling of guilt when I don't blog everyday, or the feeling of disappointment when my blog is full of heart and soul but seems not up to the standard of the "popular" blogs.  It seems this blog relationship I have been having seems to be doing more harm than good, causing me to have a lot of resentment toward the blogging world and people in genereal. And with my new 'life" about to start as {bg} as {av} would have it, I can't be more sure that blog life for me just isnt working out, because I want my future life as a Mrs. to start off on the right foot, with that one less possible nagging feeling looming over my head everyday.

This isn't a forever goodbye, its just a hiatus for awhile.  A breather of sorts.  To get my thoughts together about what I want this to be for myself, about how I want this blog to continue, if I want it to continue at all.  I still love my friends that I've made in this time, no matter how near or far you may be.  You have really made an impression on my heart and I think about you all the time about how you are & where your lives are taking you.   I will still be reading blogs and making comments, but just not blogging on my own blog.

You can still contact me - I will be sure to respond and keep in touch

Til then,
Cheers,
