It’s not a color I have used all that often in the past, but June is definitely looking like a purple month. It’s all over the place!

I’ve made changes to the site, and I’m pretty excited about them. These changes are both functional and aesthetic, and I hope that you’ll let me know if you find anything amiss! Oh, and naturally there are pictures. Because despite the nerdy way in which I spent much of my free time, there were still pretty things to share.

I’ve been making some behind-the-scenes changes lately that will improve your Polka Dot Cottage experience. Most of these changes will be invisible to you, but they should make the site faster and more secure. Additionally, I have a new Privacy Policy in place that you might want to check out.

We spent the first few days of this week in Ocean City. It was lovely and too short. As usual. Someday I want to go for a whole week. That would be amazing. Also (and this has nothing to do with the images) would you like to help me come up with songs for a new playlist? Read on for details.

I’ve been spending a lot of time playing around with my music collection lately, and the result is three new playlists! One with new music for spring, another volume of Coffee and Keyboard for those times you need some wordless music for working, and a collection of music from the 1990’s – it’s a diverse group, so hopefully you will find something fun to listen to!

It took me three days to notice that my website was unavailable. Oops! I think I can be forgiven at least for two of those days. Right now I’m with the family in Ocean City, enjoying our annual Jersey Shore getaway. I have purposely been spending as little time as possible on the computer.

I’ve been happy this week. It’s the start of one of my favorite months of the year, long-awaited spring is finally popping up everywhere in pinks, purples, and greens, and we’ve had open windows in the house and in the car. Love!
