Munchkin Mommy

On My Own

08 Jul 2008 | 03:07 pm | Category: About Me      

Mabuhay!  Welcome to my new home. :)  I’m loving my address:  http://munchkinmommy.com.  It’s so…ME!  Wiii!  You don’t have any clue how close I was to losing my dotcom of choice.  Well, I did lose it for a few weeks, which prompted me to buy the second best address (munchkinmommy.net).  I was heartbroken, of course, because for the longest time, that domain name, MY domain name,  was available.  And just when I was ready to stake my claim on it, it was gone!  Ugh!  I scolded myself for not having bought it early enough.  I just can’t imagine living in any other address, albeit virtually!  In my mind, I was cursing whoever it was who “stole” my address.  So much for happy thoughts!  Hahaha!  Still, I remained hopeful and went back to my happy thinking self.  And waddaya know?!  The next time I checked, my dotcom was available again!  Woohoo!  This time, I made sure I have full ownership, not only in my mind, but on paper as well. :)  *does a dance of joy ala Balki*  So here I am and here we are. 

As you can see, there’s still so much work to be done.  I haven’t fully unpacked my boxes yet.  Hee hee.  I have to get myself a theme (done as of 11:36pm!), re-embed the videos and slideshows that are not working (except the ones on the homepage, which I worked on already!), work on the sidebar, get myself a few plugins and widgets, etcetera, etcetera.  Nevertheless, I’ve never felt so at home on the net as I do now.  It’s just going to get a lot more homey from hereon.

We have fun and busy days ahead of us.  Tomorrow, we’re off to Dallas.  On Friday, we’re off to California.  Oh, and I haven’t told you about our 4th of July weekend yet!  I’ll do that real soon.  I’m hoping before the day is over.  For now, I’m off to the laundry room.  Hee hee.

Make yourselves comfortable, ok?  I’ll be back in a few.  Have a wonderful week ahead!  Cheers! :) 

PS.  Thank you, MrsTek, for helping me with the move…yet again!  Mmmmwah!

    Hi ms weng, am glad you have a new place, it’s cool. I just hope we can ex links, as you can see, I have linked u up already, but that was on the other place where you left. I would like to ask permission to link you up again this time, and hey, can I ask for some of those lovely flatcards too. They were really lovely and so much a work of a great artist. Thank you ms. weng.

    Hi Sheng! Thanks for the kind words and for the link. As for the flatcards, I don’t have anything ready right now as I only made exactly 14 sets, all of which I gave away already. I’ll most probably have a snail mail project again soon…I just don’t know when exactly. Hee hee. Thank you for understanding and enjoy the rest of the week! :)

    i happily await for all your stories. yes, Petra was fun, and i promise to share the story & pictures soon.

    cheers!!

    Hi Gracie! What are you waiting for? Maglipat ka na rin! Hee hee. I’d be happy to help. You can also check out MrsTek’s site for reference. Doon din kasi ako tumatakbo. Hahaha! :)

    Weng, congratulations! Ang galing ha, everyone seems to be getting their own domain. Sige, when Pinky and I decide to move houses again I will make sure to call on you and Meeya (as always).

    Hi Keith! Thank you. As long as you get GoDaddy as your host, I will be glad to help…and I’m sure si Meeya din. Hee hee. Nakahanda na nga ang on-line reference mo via MrsTek’s Tekkie blog. ;)

    Wow! Talaga naman – itaon ba naman ang lipat bahay a day before your birthday… so memorable ha! ;)

    Looking forward to more tales from Munchkinland really soon!

    Take care and enjoy your vacay! Mwah! :)

    Hi Pinks! Thank you. Actually, 2 days before my birthday ako nag-lipat, my time. Hahaha! :P There will definitely lots of tales coming up from Munchkinland. But you know me. I always have a difficult time bouncing back from holidays. Yung long weekends nga lang nahihirapan ako eh. :D

    You take care, too! Regards to everyone! Mmmwah!

    [...] I got my own dotcom for this blog in the same month, but didn’t get to use it and write my first munchkinmommy.com entry until July [...]
