Please note the monthly CafePress newsletter sign-up form at the top of the right sidebar.
I really am committed to this monthly newsletter, and this is the ultimate in the latest news regarding my CafePress business and other related matters.
This newsletter also always contains all the relevant links to my CafePress stores, blogs, website, etc. The only thing missing is the link to my Spreadshirt store - this newsletter is, after all, hosted and run by CafePress.
My website may be under renovation, my blogs may be under renovation, none of these may be completely updated every single month. Frequently, partially, but not completely, every single month.
There is also always something new in each and every monthly newsletter: new graphic(s), new merchandise, or a sale or promotion. I make sure of it.
So if you're interested in my CafePress-related online business, I do recommend that you subscribe to this monthly newsletter.
Note that the May Issue is about to go out before the week's over - this newsletter goes out during the last week of the month.

The Beginnings...
...Of the renovations around my "online empire", that is.
I've decided to start with my blogs, having roughed out a couple, with this one here likely the next in line. Then, I'll hook the relevant blogs to the renovated website.
Check out the newly-upgraded Music Stuff Blog
Do you think it has enough "labels", aka tags? ; ) Probably excessive?
I'd like the banner to my Music Stuff & More store to link to the store, but haven't yet found a way with this new Blogger upgrade. Should be a no-brainer, hmm. For another day... It's still a work-in-progress.

Renovations & Improvements
After struggling too much with Microsoft FrontPage 2003 (the latest FrontPage, which will not work with the latest Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 - go figure), I finally broke down and bought Adobe/Macromedia Dreamweaver 8.
Now, to learn the darn thing and to renovate my website.
In the meantime, my website is still and will be up and running, and at the same place as always: carolynhmayer.com
I do still keep adding the "Bad Music Joke of the Week", and I've added some new items of interest and/or amusement to the wazzup.htm Page and the "News & Views" Page. It's hard right now for me to do very much with the website - see the first paragraph up above. (Blasted Microsoft.)
Also, I'll be renovating my blogs - yes, this one, too. Google expects me to upgrade my Blogger already. I will do. Maybe next week.
In the meantime, my CafePress stores (and my Spreadshirt store) are doing great, being fully in business, and still having a free shipping promotion for Valentine's Day:
Music Stuff & More
For Women Old Enough... store
Stay tuned to see the results of the renovations - and the improvements.
Check this blog, also my website (which will still be updated, somewhat - some parts) for new developments.
I appreciate your patience and tolerance. : ) (Darn Microsoft...)

New Web Software...?
Folks, quite frankly, I've been thinking about and researching new Web software. You've already heard me comment and complain about my difficulties with Microsoft FrontPage seeming rather archaic with the latest online technologies, ie., interfacing with YouTube and other video sources, interfacing with blogs, RSS, etc.
I've also mentioned repeatedly that I'm no Web Designer - and don't really aspire to be one. I just want to get online okay, have my website, do my business, have my fun, and concentrate my graphic design efforts elsewhere (as in my current income-producing efforts, such as my stores).
I'm looking at Microsoft; I'm looking at Adobe...
I'm not coming up with a good answer yet.
I'm also finding out that I am not alone among FrontPage 2003 (the latest version!) users who want something more up to date, but are stumped.
It's back to the old FrontPage drawing board, for now, for this site. I'll clean out, repair, trim down, improve... After the holiday rush, that is, my plate's too full right down with Christmas.
Start over with a new website? Not only do I not want to - but, most important of all, I have really good Google Page Ranking with this site in its present form. Do I wish to risk losing that? No way! My income even depends on it - it's not an ego thing (yeah, right - with this website?).
Please be patient. : ) I will get my website act back together, one way or the other.
In the meantime...
My stores:
~ Music Stuff & More
~ For Women Old Enough to Know Better
~ A seriously-neglected Spreadshirt store called CHM Music Stuff (still makes $$$, though, in spite of me)
My blogs:
~ This (duh)
~ Groovy Ladies/For Women Old Enough to Know Better blog
~ Music Stuff Blog
~ Yahoo 360 blog
~ MySpace blog - where, on the rare occaisons I am there, I complain about MySpace mostly, but contains "Happy Feet" and "Weird Al" videos (yes, I am so white and nerdy too, but you've probably already figured that one out - long ago).
And, have a Happy Holiday Season!

Cool, though. Just today CafePress surprised us shopkeepers with a load of new merchandise. We had not an inkling it was coming. It was added overnight.

These Dark T-Shirts are present now throughout my stores - you can simply check out these new colors right away.

= less new, but very recent: several new bass clef graphics
The link in the header will take you to Music Stuff & More's "NEW NEW NEW section" where you can see exactly what I'm talking about.
Of course, these new graphics can also be found in the "Music Merchandise section" :
