Hey everyone, I just wanted to write a quick post to let everyone know why I haven’t been posting lately. I have been extremely sick and hardly been online at all the past couple weeks. I had some major issues involving the lining in my stomach and it just kept getting worse and worse and I ended up in the ER. I can’t remember ever being that sick! It really has been a rough few weeks but the good news is I was given medication that I’m taking 4 times a day that has really been helping so I am hoping that I’m now on the road to recovery!!

But I just really wanted to let everyone know what was going on and that I haven’t abandoned my blog and that I hope to be posting regular again very soon. Also I will be making some changes to my theme. I really like this theme but it’s really more of a Christmas kinda theme and I really need a theme that will give me more space because I just don’t have the room that I need with this theme. I have seen several themes that I really like, however I have seen quite a few people already using those and I’m really looking for something different so if anyone has any ideas or suggestions please let me know!! Thanks so much!

**The above information is what is posted by Graham on January 31,2008 on the Entrecard website. So, what are your opinions on the changes that have been made? I have heard alot of mixed comments on the changes they have made so far. Some poeple have been very negative in their opinions on such changes but the way I see it, not everyone is going to like every change that is made. There are definately some changes I like better than others but I think Entrecard deserves more thanks and support than what it is getting! Now don’t get me wrong there are alot of people that have been positive over the changes but there have been just as many negative comments made. I think Entrecard is doing a wonderful job and I am very greatful because it has brought me lots of new traffic. And I look forward to even more changes that are currently in the works for the end of February. Great job and keep up the good work!!!**
