My sister passed me this cute Blog of the month award after Yoshi passed it to her.
Since she also passed it to a couple of my favorite reads now it’s my turn to pass it along to three others. How about the beautiful and very talented Deana at Friday Night Fishfry. Sweet Regina at Regina’s Family Season’s, who’s nice comments have made my day more then once and my fellow Michigander and very Fabulous blog bud Kit- Kat and Fabulously Me.
Thank you Project Mommy for giving me this very cool award. I have been blogging so long now that I can’t imagine my life with out it. I do it for what it means to me (free therapy) and what it has added to my life (great online friends) but every once in a whie it’s nice to hear that some one new is reading and enjoying it. Thanks!
So, now it is my turn to pass it along to ten very excellent reads.
Our shop is shut down today so I am alone in the office and have nothing to do. I guess I am just here to answer the phone, which hardly ever rings on Fridays. So, my plan is to put some real time in to my blogs. I have been trying to clean up and get this blog up to date and I have a few new products that I have recently tried and want to blog about here.
Both of these blogs run on Word Press, some thing I am still learning and having a little trouble with so I plan to first spend my morning searching the net for some good WP support.
Not a bad way to spend my day and get paid for it. T.G.I.F.
A little while a go I posted all about my crappy morning. Literally, cleaning dog crap off of Allison’s snow boots before work. Then I decided to change the direction of my day. There will be no more bitching. I am deleting my crappy morning and turning my day around right now.
A Cowboy’s Wife is having a contest on her food blog ! You can win a Hamilton Beach® Stand Mixer and she’ll ship anywhere so everyone is eligible!
The Prize:
The winner will receive a brand new
Hamilton Beach 4.5-qt. Eclectrics Stand Mixer, Pineapple Yellow!!
About the mixer:
From Hamilton Beach’s “Eclectrics” line, this all-metal stand mixer comes with a host of accessories - a Flat Beater for cakes and cookies, a Dough Hook for bread and a Wire Whisk for whipped cream or pudding. The 4.5-qt. stainless steel bowl comes with a Pouring Shield that helps prevent splattering while in operation. The pouring shield has a built-in chute for adding ingredients. Powered by 400 watts, the stand mixer has a two-way mixing action to ensure all ingredients are incorporated into the mix. The quick-release, tilt-up head assists when removing the bowl. 9 x 14 x 14-in. When you’re ready for a kitchen re-do, don’t call in the carpenters! Instead, “counterscape” your kitchen with Hamilton Beach’s retro-designed, affordably priced electrics in happy, sun-saturated colors. Their “Eclectrics” line includes updates to those classic appliances from the 1950s. All of their “Eclectrics” are available in six colors: Apple Green, Moroccan Red, Pineapple Yellow, Intrigue Blue, Sugar White and Licorice Black.
So, one of my long time favorite blogs is holding a give - a- way. Kat at My Single Mom Life is giving away a $25.00 gift card to Bed Bath & Beyond. All you have to do to enter is leave her a comment and then you can also post an entry about it on your blog. How cool is that? I mean who doesn’t love a fun give - a- way?
I met so many cool bloggers and had so much fun doing the monthly posting one I thought I should give the year long round a try. If you are doing it, go ahead and add me. I’ll accept all friends request. Like I said I found a lot of new blogs to read this way. Some have become great online friends.
If you haven’t already, you should join me.
I am getting a clicking every time I load this page. It’s doing it on all three of our computers so I know it’s not some thing with my laptop. I haven’t made any changes or added any new codes or scripts so it’s really driving me crazy. Another thing that is strange about it is that my sisters site started doing the same thing about a month ago. What the heck could it be?
See, this is what happens when I am alone in the office. You know the saying “while the cats away, the mice will play” instead of filing away a stack of papers this afternoon I decided to change my default template back to this beautiful Nip Tuck design. I know the picture at the top is a little dated, may even be from season one or two I am not sure. For those of you who don’t know, we are now on season five. But I still love it. Thanks to the talents of my friend Mel who always keeps me looking good.
I just found over 20 comments in my spam folder ! If you left me a comment that I should have responded to and didn’t, I am sorry.
That’s just how most of my day has been today.
Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday.
I have been glued to Ebay the last few days. The thing with Ebay is that once I start buying or even selling, I want to just keep doing it. I swear it’s like an addiction. This time I have been Christmas shopping and and shopping for Allison’s new bedroom. I found a few really good “buy it now” deals already this morning. At this rate I’ll be done Christmas shopping before the weekend is up.
