It’s simplified, less clutter.
Song of Solomon June Devo/Newsletter – First Draft
In an effort to improve the effectiveness of our Monthly SOS Newsletter I have updated it with more content.I’m trying to figure out how to create dividers to make it look more compartmentalized, but so far all of my attempts have only made it feel more cluttered. I’m also thinking about redoing the header image [...]
I ask important questions up front like, “Were you ever a dude?” and “Are you a Wiccan?”
I’m not sure if I posted on here about trying e-Harmony again in December of last year, but I did. Surprisingly I was matched with very few women and the ones I was matched with weren’t a match at all.
What is it about online dating services that makes me feel like I am bargain basement [...]

I am quite proud of this even though it is just the beginning. I created all of those graphics, the header and footer even and this work is keeping me quite busy and I love it.
5 Things I’ve Learned from Freelancing

Projects, Projects, Projects
I’m using my sister’s laptop to write this posted note entry. I’m currently trapped in my house waiting for UPS to deliver my new MacBook Pro. I got a phone call yesterday that said, “Your delivery will arrive between 8am and 7pm. Yeah, an 11 hour window! So I am afraid to leave because I [...]
Edified Events – Event Planning with a Christ-Based Focus
Our niche? Those people who don’t have to have alcohol to have a good time and who want to raise money for Christian causes. We plan to donate a portion of our proceeds to ministries both local and abroad.
There’s No Place Like Home…

I’m putting up curtains and since there is only one room in [...]

When I arrived at the Preston Hollow location I was immediately impressed with the high-end neighborhood and the stylish decor of the house.
