In My Mailbox February thru May Edition

So it is definitely time for me to catch up on the whole mailbox post. I don't know why it's taken me so long to get around to it, but here it is.

This is a look back at everything that I have received in the mail since I moved, since I haven't been able to keep up with my mailbox posts.

What's Been Happening With Me

So, as many of you know, I recently moved from Mississippi back to Louisiana. It wasn't my first choice in places, I would have much rather moved back home to Michigan. But for personal and financial reasons, I decided to move back to Louisiana.

We found a great trailer to rent in a decent town, outside the city limits where my daughter can finally have a yard to play in. We also have a great view of the neighbors horses out back.

Happy 2014 + New Changes

Happy 2014 everybody! I hope your New Years rocked and you didn't party too hard. 2014 is going to be an awesome year, I can just feel it! And to start off the New Year I made changes to Jump Into Books. As you can see, we got a new look! Thanks to my good friend Jessica over at Crossroad Reviews for helping me find the awesome new blog template! If it wasn't for her, I probably would have gone with the drab looking blog colors I initially picked out, blah! I have spent the past 2 days working on this. I had lost all my sidebar stuff so I freaked totally out! Luckily I got it all back and added some scrolling boxes to make it less cluttered. I made new post graphics for all the new blog posts 2014 has coming and even updated some past posts so the pictures weren't too big for the new slimmed down look.

Other new stuff: I added a donation button to the sidebar. Every donation made will go toward site maintenance and will help me to host international giveaways. So feel free to donate. I'm also planning on participating in more Book Blitzes and Blog Tours, so stay on the lookout for those. I'm hoping to host more giveaways too this year.

I also made a new blog button. So if you grabbed the old one and want to snag the new one, go ahead. Here it is, if the code doesn't work properly, email me at jumpintobooks[at]hotmail[dot]com and I will do what I can to fix the problem. Also, if you have any suggestions for the blog, feel free to email me at the above address.

One more thing. I will be looking for people that want to be guest bloggers. Someone who doesn't mind us spotlighting their reviews on the books they read. I will be getting a form together for that sometime in the next month, but in the meantime, you can email me with that info as well. Make sure you read the policies before submitting a review.

And with that all being said. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! I'm heading to bed.

Update......

Hello all my wonderful friends/followers! I just wanted to post a status update. Right now I currently have internet back, however, I am posting updates from my Android tablet, which, if any to you hav done, is a pain, haha. So posting has come to a halt until I can find a copy to Windows 7 for my computer (happy happy joy joy). But there is some good news, plenty of reviews will be posted upon my full return. In the meantime I have giveaways due to post every two weeks, so keep coming back. Don't give up to me just yet.
