Where are my posts about my gardening? What's the deal?

Hello All,

     First off, thank you for coming to my site gardenrookie.com.  If you have been to this site before you may have noticed that it has been revamped and has a new name (formerly known as Michelle Renee's Gardening).  It was really hard for me to change the name but I wanted a shorter and easier to remember site name, hence Garden Rookie.  Second, it was so hard to toss my site's Blog Title Image of the orchids I took pictures of at the Fresno Fair in 2009 especially since I had great feedback on the image.  I didn't totally scrap the picture, it is now my favicon.  Yay!  So, not a waste.
     Now that I have explained the changes to the aesthetics of the blog, I would like to let you know why most of, if not all of my content lately has been from other sites, youtube videos and such.  I always like to include information from other sites because as my websites name is Garden Rookie, I do not know it all.  But, as of late, I have not been putting much original content.  I apologize for this sincerely but I do have a good reason, moving.  I have moved about 3 times in the last year or so.  Other than putting a garden on the top of my car, I really did not have a way to proceed with gardening.
     With that being said, I have now settled in an apartment on the third floor of a brownstone in my home town of Fresno.  You may already see my problem.  I am on the third floor of a brownstone.  I do not have a balcony but I do get plenty of sun during the day.  I have not had the time do think of any kind of gardening I could do since I work full-time, going to school and trying to have a social life.  I missed gardening.  Lately, I have been wondering what I could do other than the couple of house plants that I have growing in my new place.
    The it hit me, I need to make a Window Farm from scratch.  I must admit that I have no clue how I am going to do this but I have started collecting soda bottles since I adore that sugary substance immensely.  If you have explored my blog before or if you know me, you might know about my fascination with Window Farms.  Unfortunately, I cannot afford to buy a kit from Window Farms right now so I figure I will make my own.
   Come back soon to see the updates!

Lots of love,

Michelle
