Everybody Get Your Vlog on

1.31.2013

Guess what? I am co-hosting Let's Talk Vlog next week. What is Let's Talk Vlog you say?  Well, Hayley from Hayley's World is here to tell you all about it! Take it away sister friend!
------------------------------------------
It's time for Let's Talk vlog series #3 with myself and Maribel from Stroller Adventures. 

Our co host this week is Deidre (hey... that is me!) from Love: The Skinnys. She is a super cute (she does pageants) newlywed. (Thanks Hayley, you sure know how to flatter a girl.)

You can check her out at the following places too. 




New to Let's Talk? Here's what you need to know. 

Every 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month we will have a link up with a new topic with some questions. Questions will be posted the Thursday prior to the live linkup. You can use the questions we give you, just some or take the topic and run with it on your own. 

Each week we will also have a co-host. As a co-host, you'll get your name and links in 2 posts (the post introducing the topic and co host and the post for the linkup), as well as be the 3rd linkup so you'll get great exposure. Plus, you will get your button on both our sidebars for 30 days. 

Now if you don't want to do a vlog you can write up a post about the topic/questions and link it up also. But we think you should give a vlog a try. 

So without further ado, here are next week topic and questions. 

Movies

Favorite all time movie.
Favorite genre of movies.
Funniest movie ever.
One you could watch over and over again.
Favorite actor/actress.
Celebrity doppleganger. 
Hope you have fun with this one! 

If you would like to be co-host, please email me at hayleyiskra@gmail.com with the subject line LETS TALK and we will get you on the list. If you have an idea for a topic/questions please let me know in the email also.

Also here is our button for Let's Talk Vlog series. Please use this in your post that you link up. And add to your sidebar if you'd like. :)

Hormones Out Of Whack

1.30.2013

Blogs are helpful. Let me tell you the many reasons why they are helpful.

  • You can make new friends. Blogger friends. That you may or may not ever actually see in real life. I am lucky enough to have met a handful since I live in Utah (aka. Blogger Capital of the World) but to all my friends that live in a different state, I wish us luck in meeting.
  • I always have someone to talk to. Either responding to a comment or leaving a comment.
  • Sometimes you get free stuff. Which is awesome.
  • My head is a lot more clear because everything I feel cluttered in there goes into a blog post... and then you have to try and decipher it.
  • You can learn a lot from other blogs. Cooking, crafting, fashion, makeup.... all sorts of things.
  • Self esteem boost. Whats up 600 followers that I don't even know but somehow you are reading all about my life... you are awesome.
  • And the final way... which brings me to the importance of my post... a blog can help you realize when your hormones need to be checked.
How did I know my hormones needed to be checked? Besides my insomnia, weight gain, mood swings, and headaches.... my blog helped me figure it out. How you ask? Because I used to be funny. I used to be put into any situation and I could make it funny. Whether it was getting my hair cut, getting an extremely awkward security check, reliving my dating past, or having a claw for a hand. All which are normal. I could make people laugh in my posts. Here. Let me give you an example of the comments I used to get:



That is right people. Even Gentri Lee thinks I am funny. Now these are the comments I get.
In case you didn't get it... that means nothing. Zero. Nada. The big goose egg. I get hardly any comments anymore. And I think it is because I haven't been writing funny things... that is what brought you all in the first time. And I don't write funny things because I am emotional. And why am I emotional? Well. Web MD told me I might need my hormones checked. So what did I do? I got my hormones checked. And my blog was right. My hormones were off balance. So here is to a few pills and hoping that I can get back to the women I once was. A huge shout out to all my followers and blogger friends and of course my blog. Because without all of you... I might not have known to get my hormones checked. Even though I probably would have because this weight gain thing (my insulin levels were off the chart) is CA-RAZY! And I am not liking having gained 20 pounds in the last 8 months.

Love,
Deidre
