Help Please!!!!

Okay, I changed my html to HERE and for like the past two days it has been exactly how I want it. Then this morning I got on and I haven't changed anything and my sidebar is shoved all the way down on the bottom. I even changed it back to default and nothing changed. I don't know what is happening to it. If you can rescue my sidebar that would be awsome. I am going to be leaving in about an hour but you can email me at lighthouseimagesbyamber(at)yahoo(dot)com. Thanks!!!

{20 Random Things About Me}


Here are 20 random things that you may or may not care to know about me. Enjoy reading them and let me know what we have in common or something totally rad about you!

20 Random Things About Me
1} I use 'anyways' way, way, way too much. I usually use it because I can't think of anything else to say to get me along to my next point.

2} My favorite color is lavendar, but I don't own anything in that color and haven't ever bought anything in that color.

3} I always make lists. Even if I don't use them, I make them. I can usually find 3 to 4 lists on the same thing.

4} I love peppermint sticks dipped in chocolate. Yum!

5} I love modern-vintage, urban-ish anything.

6} I always have a hard time doing these, but after I do them I get a barrage of likes/dislikes/loves/hates that I could have put in.

7} I have a piggy bank. It is so cute...

8} I keep a journal/diary and have for almost 5 years. No, I don't have five years worth of journals. I completely filled my first one the beginning of this year. I don't write like every day.

9} I have never used a whole bottle of lotion or body spray.

10} I love, love, love pens, flip flops, cameras, Converse shoes, lip gloss, and bright colors!

11} I have never owned a cell phone.

12} I have never worn red nail polish. Not because I am not allowed, I just have never owned a bottle. I really want to go buy a bottle of red nail polish and wear it though.

13} I often ask weird and confusing questions. Some I even answer and make absolute sense. ;)

14} I eat french fries with sour cream.

15} I really need to get into the habit of exercising...(note to self: start exercising again)

16} I don't know what most of my favorites are. Example: food= good food; book= a bunch. See what I mean? It is really frustrating to me.

17} I doodle the best hearts. <3>

18} I wish I were a more interesting and out-going person so I could have a really cool list of things about me.

19} My favorite book of the Bible is Esther...I love the story.

20} I love comments.
So, tell me something cool about you!!!!

luv ya,
amber

Okay, I am learning a lot so please don't get mad at me for asking so many questions. Anyways, I was wondering if anyone knows how I can take the blue line around my header out. I haven't seen it on any of yours so I know it doesn't have to be there. Thanks for any help and for putting up with all my questions! lol

eyes like fire

Her eye was large and dark, suppressing half its fire
Until she spoke, then through its soft disguise
Flash'd an expression more of pride than ire,
And love than either; and there would arise,
A something in them which was not desire,
But would have been, perhaps, but for the soul,
Which struggled through and chansten'd down the whole.

Just playing around with effects and came up with this. Again, almost creepy, huh? lol

testing big photos

YAY!!! It worked. lol

this n' that

This is just a bunch of pics that I have taken in the past few months and finally got around to editing today. So, enjoy and let me know what you think.
I absolutely love how delicate the black and white makes the purple look.

Yeah, that is really the color of my eye. They kind of change around. Usually there is more dark brown and golden color around the middle. I am just sharing this cause I liked how it turned out even if it is a little creepy. lol
This is when I went camping with my friends a two weeks ago. We were going for a walk down to the trails.

A cabin across the river hidden deep within the forest. Only allowing a small peek into their secluded lives. Yep. That's the cheesy romantic in me. hahaha
I love Gerber daisies. They are just so adorable. Orange ones are the best. I love having my mom work at a florist. I am spoiled by the owner. *laughs evilly* JUST KIDDING! I am spoiled by him but I am not evil.
Dontcha love farmers markets especially in the evening. The light was perfect.

I just totally blanked on what kind of flower this was. I think it is in the same family as peony or something similar.
This was totally awesome. It would have been better with the whole cylinder but there was a pole right through the middle. Bummer!
Anyways, I hope you enjoyed those. I do have a question. How so you get a bokeh effect? Can you do it on your camera or is it all photoshoped. Okay, if you know how that would be great. And let me know how you like my new header. Thanks. TTYL

walk on the beach...............

feel the sand beneath my feet
i look down at my painted toes
red and tingling from the cold of the ocean
i shiver with excitement
i lift my face to the summer sky
and breath in the cool air
it won't last much longer
but i shall walk on the beach
and feel the sand beneath my toes
