Day 12 :: How my blog got it's name

Good evening everyone, Today in Blogging every day in May with Sunday the topic is to talk about how your blog got it's name (and tagline).

I started this blog back in 2008... at that time I wanted to share my cardmaking creations... and so I thought that "Stuff by Sammi"  would make a good name... "stuff" being all the "cards" I made. It has evolved a little and now "Stuff" includes other creations I make, things I do and write" It's actually quite appropriate for my latest hobby of making socky rag dolls... which I fill with "stuffing" tee hee, they are "stuffed by Sammi" Oh... In case you were unsure... my name is "Sammi" ;)

As for a tagline ... It's changed a little from time to time.. at the moment I have
 Sammi's little Bit of blogland  and I have added my description... in which I share my creations, thoughts and life!!  which I guess is pretty self explanatory :)

Thanks for stopping by!
Sammi
xoxo

Blogging every day in May :0

  
Hello world, 
I was checking my facebook feed this afternoon to relax... (after I got home from my new job ... yup - I started a new part time job today :) Pretty exciting - I'm actually looking forward to working again - not till Monday now for me) and saw Kellie's blog post about her goals for May .. which then took me to Sunday's blog and I think this is just what I need to get back into blogging regularly... so I am going to take up Sunday's challenge to blog every day in May :0 it's a little daunting but I'll see what I can do.. and any posts are better than my current record right!!! :D

                                                   

Sunday has very helpfully created a list of blog prompts... so I am using that for today...
Day 1, Thursday: Goal setting.  What are your plans for today?  (And/or this week?  This month?  This year?)

So here goes -  My plans for the upcoming days and weeks are:
  • to blog more regularly again....
    • to catalog my blog, make sure the labels match the posts etc.
    • maybe do a redesign???
    • add Blog links.
    • make and send more cards.
    • finish three dolls.
  • to learn my new job well and work at it for the Lord.
  • to clean and tidy our house making every room a pleasant place to be.
  • get my store Mad for Markers going strong again.
  • Be generous with my time and $$.
  • Be productive with my days not at work... make lists!!!
  • Bring glory to God in all I say and plan and do!

Ok... I think that will give me plenty to do don't you think. It is a little daunting claiming that I will post daily (especially after my last post - form Feb) which is why I chose the image of the Tiger which I took at Taronga zoo the other day, this Tiger was staring STRAIGHT at me!! 

Thanks for stopping by! What are your plans for the coming month? Post a comment below as I'd love to hear them :D
