My spinning time yesterday was limited but for a good reason. I completely redesigned my blog layout and several behind the scenes settings. I also redesigned our fundraiser shop (link is over in the sidebar) and will be adding products and images this week. Here is my progress from day 1. Almost a full down… Continue reading TdF day 2
