Changes Coming….

Good Afternoon Everyone,

I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is I have decided to move the blog to my very own website! The bad news is some of my old posts will vanish….

I did not know that you can not use photos from Pinterest on your blog unless you have permission. I now have to go through every last one of my posts (that I believe) my have an image from Google or Pinterest and delete the photo. I have already deleted some of my posts because I can not find the beautiful photography that I want to replace it with. You guys I am devastated.  Pinterest had been my main source for beautiful photography and to know that it is encouraged that bloggers NOT use it is crushing.

But I get it. The gentleman who is working with me on getting my new website set up has already experienced the horrible consequences of using an image that you don’t have permission to use. He had to pay a few thousand dollars for using one photo. It’s incredible. So I say this with a broken heart that some of my posts will disappear if I can not find the photos that I want. You will see more of my photography on my page (and honestly you should) but this is what I am dealing with. 

I hope you all continue to follow the blog as I try to learn all of these new rules. I am not sure what I can share and what I can’t. I have reached out to a more experienced blogger for help. I hope she gets back to me soon. I am excited about having my own website and having some freedom finally!

I am trying to keep that in front of me. I will be posting my October favorites this week! Enjoy your day!!


Also if you have moved from Blogger onto your own website I would love some pointers if you could provide them! I will let you guys know when my blog has transitioned. 

It will take several weeks. Thank you!!!!

    Hi Mrs. Shockley,

    While I will miss some of the old posts,I'm looking forward to your new website. So crazy about Pintrest photography. But, I am always most delighted in your personal photography- Mrs. Shockley in real life, so yay to more of that. Good for you braving something big and new! Glad you have people helping you with this transition.

    On another note, I had been having trouble finding the Day Designer for 2021,specifically the one you shared last year. I picked it up on your recommendation, and I cannot imagine using another planner. I know it's still early but last year I found it in October. Long story short, I could only find it at Walmart. The ones at Target were either too bulky for me or too small.The 7×9 is available at Wal-Mart and it only comes in a pink blush, but I was so glad to find it in that size. Just an fyi..

    Take care,

    Mya

      Hello Mya,
      I am trying to save some of my old posts. I started writing this blog for fun but now since I want to have my own website there is a lot for me to learn.
      I am sorry to hear that you are having trouble finding the Day Designer. I know exactly how you feel. I have tried to use other planners but nothing compares. It took me a few Target visits to find my new one for 2021. I would say don't give up just yet! Thank you for always commenting and reading Mya!

    Update: I did find it at Walmart and picked it up. I couldn't believe they had the Day Designer, but it's perfect! It's the same one you shared last year, but in blush pink!
