A New Look
Hello Readers!
As you can see there has been a HUGE update made to Familial Ramblings! After a couple of months of tireless hours, Familial Ramblings now has its very own custom theme. I have to thank Audentio Design, the fantastic web design company that created the theme. If you’re ever looking for a theme (forum or blog), a mascot design or even a logo, I highly recommend going to them. They always do an amazing job!
I especially would like to thank Kris who was the designer for this specific theme. I think that she did an AMAZING job and was there to answer every little, annoying question I had to throw at her. She was and continues to be very helpful as we finish the smaller details up. I hope you all love the theme as much as I do and thank you again to Audentio Design!

A Friend or Just an Employee?
For those of you who don’t know me that well or may even just be getting to know me, I’m someone who will bend over backwards just to help someone—especially if it’s a friend or family member. I’ve helped numerous people with a variety of different things, but one thing I more often find myself helping others with is their forums, blogs and/or websites. When I help, I don’t ask for much, if anything, but I do look to at least be appreciated and listened to when I give my thoughts and opinions. Apparently, to some people that’s just too much to ask and in some situations you find yourself with someone who you thought was a friend that actually sees you as nothing more than a “good employee.”

Fighting Burnout
Have you ever just wanted to have a break from everything? Sit back, relax, read your favorite book or catch up on your favorite television shows. Being able to be around your family all the time is fantastic, but sometimes you just need some time to yourself. I would actually recommend that you take time for yourself every now and I say this because the last thing you want to do is burnout.

Is Blood Thicker?
The movie Dark Shadows starring Johnny Depp was recently released in theaters. Considering I’m obsessed with movies and have always been a huge fan of Johnny Depp, I, of course, had to go see it. I thought it was a great movie with a lot of laughs that I would recommend others to go see. There was a very interesting concept used within the movie, which is what I wanted to concentrate on for this post and that’s the concept that blood is thicker than water.

Happy Mother’s Day
I wanted to take a moment to say Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mommies out there!
Today’s the day that we celebrate mothers and all that they’ve done for us throughout the years of our lives. Instead of writing a post about how wonderful I think my mother is—which would be a very long post in the end—I want to pass the opportunity to all of you to tell me and other readers what makes your mother special. What has your mother done for you and how will you repay her for doing everything she’s done. Remember, you don’t have to talk about your birth mother. This can be an adoptive or foster mother, an aunt, grandmother, or someone who’s simply taken on that motherly role in your life. Share your positive thoughts, feelings and stories about your mother or the mother figure in your life. Don’t forget to let us know what you’re doing for your mom on her special day!
