Shopaholic in Alabama

Hello, Shopaholics! Wow - what a Monday around here. I hope your day went well - and was relatively calm for a Monday!   Over the next week, I will be doing a bit of blog "housecleaning". Lately I have noticed that my blog roll needs some updating. If you are a blogger and reader of Shopaholic In Alabama, and want your blog included in my blog roll, please comment (with your blog web address) and let me know you'd like to be included. In return, I would like to respectfully request that my blog is also included in your blog roll! :-) I will also be removing any links to blogs that don't have Shopaholic In Alabama included in their blog roll.  This has been a tough step for me to take. However, I've noticed recently that many of my fellow bloggers don't have my blog listed in their roll. I've always thought the blogging community was pretty tight knit and everyone looked out for each other - even though we all have different styles, different likes and ...

Happy Thursday, everyone! Can it really almost be the weekend? Wow! We have a big weekend planned with our annual Mardi Gras float ride/party/parade on Sunday! Do you guys still love me? Haha, I laugh but of course I do wonder ! I wrote up my Oscar night fashion review and not one comment? Seriously, I thought someone out there would get a kick out of my Scarlett Johansson review, if nothing else! Sometimes I wonder if I am talking to myself... You are probably wondering - "why are comments such a big deal"? Let me say this - I could talk forever about blogging and comments. I see blogs all the time that have very few followers and tons of comments on each post. I also see blogs that have lots of followers and little or no comments. It always makes me sad to see no comments on a blog post (not just my blog, but others that I also follow) because a blogger really puts their heart and soul into their work. We're all different - some of us have beautiful p...

Happy Monday, Shopaholics! Hope you're doing great today and are well rested after a nice weekend! For once, I'm at a total loss of words. I know, it's difficult to imagine; but it's true! :-( Lately I have been thinking a lot about this blog - where it's been, where it's going, and what my readers might expect from me. Believe me, I realize I haven't been updating quite as much as normal...and honestly, I think it's because I haven't been shopping as much as normal. You can pick yourself up off the floor now, and continue reading! :-) It felt like I was "boxing myself in" on the blog...everyone was reading and looking for the latest and greatest sales, shopping tips, etc. I do LOVE offering those things here, but even for me - there are times when I don't shop much. I guess I feel like that's what you are looking for from me.....and I haven't been able to give it to you! Am I correct? What would you LIKE to read about...
