May 19, 2014

Do you have one of those songs that just picks you up and puts you back on track? Actually more than just back on track but puts you in that "I got this sh*t" attitude and ready to kick some butt and ...

What’s Holding You Back?

May 16, 2014

I ask myself this question all the time. And most often is all comes down to fear. Fear. It's what usually keeps me on the sidelines. The one not taking chances, not pursuing my dreams in a full-on ...

What Lights You Up?

April 10, 2014

I'm currently listening to Danielle LaPorte's Fire Starter Sessions during my commute time. I've had this book on my nightstand or desk for way over a year. Maybe close to two. Haven't read past the ...

I'm starting down a new path with blogging. More me, more authentic...less worrying about what people think or who's reading. Some where along the path on the orginal just-thauna.com I lost myself. I ...

Hey there!

Welcome to my little space where I ramble some, share some, and maybe even rant a bit. I'm just a girl (50+ but I still think of myself as a girl) who tries to see joy and humor in life, but sometimes stumbles and gets stuck in the muck. Life is what we make it and I want mine to be happy. Read More…

Hello!!! Happy weekend. ✌🏻 I’m so happy it’s the weekend...the past two weeks have been so busy with projects.  I’m looking forward to a drive up the canyon, some football, and getting some chores done. So I can start again on Monday working on a few exciting projects that I can’t wait to share with you. 

What are your weekend plans?

I’m turning into such a plant lady. I never used I’m turning into such a plant lady. I never used to be good with plants but I’ve been learning and loving them more and more. A few plants have not survived my learning curve but most are beginning to thrive and I’ve even recused a few from the brink of demise.

Second to my new love for plants is shopping for pots. 🥰 These two pots were citronella candles that I found on clearance and removed the candle.

This ficus was started from trimmings of a bigger plant that needed some “doctoring” after we discovered it had mold....that ficus is thriving now and has lots of new growth.

It’s probably a good thing our townhome is limited on space and light or this place would be a greenhouse.

Do you love plants? 🪴

2021: I am finally going to start a blog as a side 2021: I am finally going to start a blog as a side project with my husband. And I’m going to share the planning process through getting it ready for launch. If you have any questions along the way please leave a comment or DM me.

If you are thinking about starting a blog or have recently started one follow along and maybe we can inspire each other. I am going to break the process down slowly over the next few weeks. 

Imagine my work persona asking myself about the blog I’m planning. 

*Planning*

👉🏻What are you planning to blog about? Write down all the things you are planning to blog about so you can work on categories later. 

*****
DIY and craft projects. We have been married for a bit over a year and we are working on turning Thauna’s house into OUR home. We want our home to reflect both of our personalities and style throughout. Frank is a craftsman and we dream up projects together. We will share step by step tutorials on our projects. We also have been learning to cook together (will share recipes) and learning more about plants. We like to puzzle and play backgammon on the patio when it’s warm. Thauna likes to take pictures of everything we eat and everywhere we go. We love to try new local restaurants and discover new places. 

*Name the blog*

Happy as the Smiths - why you ask? I thought of all those cute sayings of two people just as happy as __________ (two peas in a pod, happy as clams, etc). And we’re pretty dang happy. 😂

*domain registration *

I like to use Godaddy.com. See if your domain is available and if it is purchase it ASAP.  You may need to tweak your chosen name a bit with a - or an extra word or even use something other than .com. Godaddy will make suggestions. 

This will be my first blog not tied to a service I offer. Our goal is to monetize this blog with affiliate links and ads. Down the road we may sell project plans or ebooks once the blog is successful.

Sometimes I see people start with too much and have too many moving parts. Start simple, share what you know. And grow from there. 

Oh and one last tip to think about: always use quality photography and start gathers photos.

Save this post for when you’re ready to start.
Hello and Happy New Year! I’m Thauna and I creat Hello and Happy New Year! I’m Thauna and I create custom WordPress sites and branding for creative entrepreneurs. The part I enjoy the most is helping others take their dream business online. I’m honored to be a piece of the process that makes them feel like they can take on the internet confidently. 

When I’m not designing websites I’m usually hanging out with my husband doing DIY projects, puzzling or shopping for new plants. 😊

Let’s work together in 2021. I am currently scheduling for February and March. Check out the link in my profile for more information.
