...yes. The blog will be renamed. I know what the new name will be, but don't want to reveal that just yet. Full disclosure: I decided on the new name about five minutes after I posted the entry about maybe changing it. So I guess my mind really was made up already.
I'm going to combine the name-change with the redesign and migration to WordPress that I've been threatening for ages and ages. I won't be starting a new blog--all the old Dogs Steal Yarn entries will go with us.
The new banner Xina made for me (which then sat in a digital closet while I put off the migration) now needs to be updated with the new name, and then David can move everything over. I'm not sure when all of that can happen, but I'll keep you posted.
In the meantime, I have my hands full. Toddler with a "touch of bronchitis," per the pediatrician. Have a great weekend. I'm off to baby my baby a bit more.

Posted by: gleekSo excited to see the new look, and good luck with the wee one this weekend! Ick.
Posted by: AmyThe suspense, she is killing me.
Posted by: MichelleChange can be wonderful! Can't wait to see the new look! Hope your little guy feels better soon!
Posted by: AudreyVery cool. Looking forward to seeing what you've come up with.
Take care of your little guy (mummycuddles are the best medicine for toddler bronchitis. Been there, done that.)
Posted by: Rachel HI'm thinking that the word "Utopia" may play a role in the new name. :-)
Take care of your little guy.
Posted by: KathyLooking forward to your new look. It's good to have this evolve since you are a different you than 5 years ago. (Though I'm cursing you a bit because I'm thinking that a little make over might do my blog good!).
And hope Thumper is okay soon.
Posted by: Dr.StephOh, poor Thumper! I hope you both get some rest this weekend. miss you.
I too am looking forward to the change. Hope the toddler feels better soon.
Posted by: PhoeActually meant to say that here: Can't wait to see it!
Posted by: Sally McEntireI can't wait to see your blog makeover :)
Hope your little pumpkin is feeling better soon.
I am so excited to see the new look. I can't wait to see what you are changing the name to!
Posted by: KeatynI just posted my comment but I realized that my URL was my old URL so I am posting again.
Posted by: KeatynPoor Thumper! (And no matter what your blog is called, I will always think of him as Thumper Dogsstealyarn, which has always struck me as a rather Viking-like name.)
Posted by: jannaCan't wait to see the new blog. I'm excited for you. Hope the little guy feels better soon!
