Too bad you can't see my face right now because honestly, I'm grinning like an idiot. Being the sneaky person I am (you all thought I had vanished from the blogging world for good, didn't you?) I got to observe what many fellow bloggers were doing with their blogs.
It seriously inspired me and jump-started a major investigation that ended up in hours of work. A heavy coding session (that header, tho!) and lots of new blog title brainstorming later, I sit here with a pile of glorious potential.
"It's A Chloe Thing" is my new baby, and it has officially replaced "Curious Ramblings". As sad as I am to see Curious Ramblings go, I'm totally jazzed to have a blog with a more specific title and purpose. I mean it's just crazy to think that was my blog's name for three years, and that three years ago I was curled up on our couch brainstorming titles for my FIRST BLOG! I can't tell you how proud I was of myself ;)
(I mean, "Life from blue eyes wide open"? A mouthful!
I also don't quite get the "Cinderella ain't got no shoes"- um, pretty sure last I checked
she did get her shoes back. Better yet she got a PRINCE!)
This blog has had so many ups and downs that some times, I've considered quitting. Starting from scratch. Leaving the blogging world altogether.
Thanks to my parents I'm sure as heck not a quitter, though. There's also little whispers of promise and hope here and there, reminding me that this blog is not here for me; this blog truly is a God-thing. I am so inadequate, and yet He still wants to use me, guys! I just don't get it :)
I can't promise I'll be posting super frequently. I can't promise I won't mess up. But bless you- I will sure try.

I can't wait to explore all the new ways I get to reach out with stories, encouragement, and laughter over this messy journey. You with me for this?
Holy buckets, it's gonna get good.
(p.s. that was definitely a Chloe thing)

You have taken the perfection that was Curious Ramblings and made it even more perfect. Which I didn't even think was possible. I'm semi-freaking out right now.
Amazing job on the coding- your site is absolutely gorgeous! Did you do it by yourself?
