*New Follower Widget* [Question]

So I have really been looking for a new follower widget since I learned that the google one was going away for blogs not hosted on blogspot (does anyone know if that is true or should I attempt to put mine back?).

I found the linky followers widget today (I am sure it has been around longer, just haven’t really paid attention :) and decided to put it up on my sidebar. It looks really lonely and it would love if you would follow it :)

Guest Bloggers??

Happy Wednesday everyone! I was wondering if anyone would want to be a guest blogger for me? It can be anything from tutorials, crafts, recipes, to introducing yourself and your blog. I am open to new ideas as I am trying to expand my blog.

Just send me an email at kristen[at]ladybug-blessings[dot]com

I would love to hear from you!

I’m Back

So now that it is summer and I am done with school I am going to make a much more conscious effort to get back to blogging. I have missed it, I lost my motivation. I was so wrapped up in school that it was the first thing to get pushed to the side. Not anymore!!

Not only do I plan on refashioning the blog (new graphics? what do you think? I like the layout but I could see some new colors… yellow maybe?). Anyway, but also getting back to posting my crafts (which again totally went to the wayside), and my inspiration posts (which truth be told are probably my favorite to post!).

I know I wasn’t completely “gone” but I haven’t been completely “here” either and so it is nice to be back and I am hoping to be making a lot more blog posts and do a lot more commenting :)

I hope your summers have been going great so far!

Synchroblogging & Pancake

So one of my oldest friends Courtney sent a tweet about an idea she had about synchro-blogging where we all blog about the same topic at the same time. Now technically the week is over and I will be late linking up but it has been a busy, busy week and better late than never. :) The idea behind the synchro-blogging is that there is a set topic and sometime during the week you write about it, just like a linky party.


So here is Pancake (you can also notice her in the header) and she is my little shadow. I rescued her from a horrible puppy mill situation a little over 2.5 yrs ago. When I adopted her she had spent her entire life (estimated at 5-7 but we really have no idea) in a cage. I brought her to the vet and spent a fortune for her having surgery. When I got her spayed it was discovered she had cancer inside her little body and tumors. The vet said if I had not rescued her and had surgery she would have been dead within a month. She also had to have most of her teeth pulled because she had never been taken care of.


Even though she didn’t have the best start to life she is truly a joy to have. She snuggles with you, loves to wiggle her butt in the air, loves to play with toys (it took 2-3 weeks for her to figure out what they were) and it took a year to teach her to trust and walk on a leash. Although, I have had to be really patient with her she makes everyone she meets really happy when they see how her little tail won’t stop wagging.


I mean, how adorable is she? Too cute right?
