one more thing for may (and a vlog)

thanks to my lil' sidekick for helping out with that vlog.

here are details in written form. . .

yesterday i posted some of the expected for the coming month.

(i stress expected, because life is chock full of unexpected, no?)

well, i left one thing out.

in the coming weeks, you'll be seeing new words in that header up there.

i am changing the blog name!

when i transitioned from our hartbeat (the original blog name), annalea hart was a place holder.

at the time i just knew our hartbeat had run its course and with the domain change, a new name was needed, but i was stumped.  this last year was unexpectedly full. (see, there is that word again.)  creativity ran dry when it came to a new name and, frankly, i was not too concerned with it.  but having a self-titled blog is a bit awkward at times and i have been hoping inspiration would strike all on its own.

and last week it did.
so.stinkin.excited.

be on the lookout for the new name.

i won't give a firm date on it until i am closer to a reveal.

questions for you:

if you blog, how did you choose the name?

did it come to you easily or was it a process?

do you feel it still reflects you and your focus?

have you ever changed a blog name?  if so, why?

one minute and three seconds of random

i told you so.

a tired fifth of july (vlog)

so here is my first vlog.

not too exciting.

and not too long.

just a short shot of me saying hi. because it is kinda nice to actually hear someone saying it, right?

things to note:

when i say "too tired to type", i mean too tired to think of what to type, write it in some sort of interesting way and accompany it with some good photos.  that is usually refreshing to me.  tonight it would have been exhausting.  this is a tough fibro week, folks.

i meant to say "i thought it would be fun" - not funny. it bothers me that i used the wrong word.

it surprises me i sound that coherent.  because i just really am that tired.  but maybe you don't think i sounds coherent.  and that is okay.

ooh, and i wish i had asked how you are doing?  so. . .

"how are you doing on this fifth of july?"

also, the cucumber was yummy.

and so was gia's little before dinner prayer:

"thank you God for all this meal and all this day and all this land. amen."

amen.
