Domain
The first thing you want to do is look for a domain name that will fit you, your business name, or business idea. You’re web presence is very important so, think carefully when choosing your domain name. Be creative!

Well you could search for your domain name here with Godaddy.

My New Laptop
March 28, 2010 by Carolina | Categories: Blog, My Thoughts, Personal
Let me tell you what an ordeal it has been to get my new hardware. After researching and looking and comparing, I finally decided on a Sony Viao laptop and let me tell you that it hasn’t been a fun ride. Once I finally placing my order (from a place that I’m not gonna mention), my card was charged and then the order was cancelled. I didn’t even know my order was cancelled until a few days later when I went to find out what part of teh country my new baby was in. To my dismay, I realized that my new machine was NOT on it’s way to momma. I was even more suprised to see that they never called me or emailed me, so I decided to call them up ASAP. After getting off teh phone with them, they stated that teh amount being charged was high and the phone number I had did not match my address. I guess this is a good thing, so I won’t complain about that. I’m just not sure why they never tried to even contact me. Anyway, I finally had to reorder it and it’s finally on it’s way. I’ll take pics and give an update about it’s arrival. ttyl!

Merry Xmas 2009!!!
Merry Xms, everyone! This year Matt is spending Xmas in Indiana working. At least we got to spend Thanksgiving together and we are very blessed. Lexani had a ball this year because she actually understood that there were presents under the tree. She claimed that Missy, our dog, made two presents go missing. Lol, she is so precious. Alexis was great this year, too. We had a good time at home and then a great evening with friends and family. Good times!!!
My Little Mascot…
December 25, 2009 by Carolina | Categories: Blog, Site Updates
I’ve been looking all over the internet and I’ve been running across all these cute little owls, so I’ve decided to add an owl to my list of contenders. So far I’ve got a rabbit, froggy and/or an owl. I’ve got to play around with some ideas and see what I’ve finally decided on. I just know I need to decide quickly because classes are about to start soon and I want to get this done before then. Let the games begin!
New Mascot Inspiration
You know I really don’t like the mascot I picked for my site, so I’m on a mission in creating one. My eye is on alert to find some inspiration in anything I see over the next couple of weeks. I think my greatest inspiration are my girls because they are always wearing something colorful and bright which I love. Anyway, the hunt is definitely on like donkey kong.
Getting Myself In Order
December 23, 2009 by Carolina | Categories: Blog, Site Updates
We all come to a point where we are faced with tough life descisions and we must take time out to reflect, refocus and make a new plan. I have taken the time to do this for myself and my family and I have realized that I can do everything I want to do and more. I just need to be organized and patient. I am planning on getting back into the swing of things with SugarPixel on a part-time basis. The plan is to focus on Pre-Made Blogger and WordPress designs and then slowly start taking on new custom design projects.
