You can never have enough “geeky toys” and over at Kristofers Blog there is a give away going on for one of the cutest geeky toys ever!
It’s a Star Wars R2-D2 Mimobot 1Gig USB Flash Drive, and he includes the Protohoodie protective carrying case/keychain.

Is he not by far too cute? I feel like I need to have him! And how cool is it that kristofer is willing to give him away.

My lovely friend, Allison presented me with this nice award a couple of days ago. I have known Allison for years now, I am sure it’s been at least five. In fact she was one of my very first on line friends, my first blogging buddy and my first IM chat. At one point she was even my blog host. She is one of the sweetest women in blog-ville.

The point of this award is to pass it on to three other nice bloggers, so here goes,

First I want to pass this “Nice Matters Award” on to my sister. Who not only is a loving sister but a great friend. I am very lucky to have her in my life. She is also the person who introduced me to blogging. Way to go Sis! If you are not reading Neptunebaby already, she is defiantly one to add to your blog-roll.

I am also passing this award to Hip Momma. Who throughout the years has always been right here, leaving me such nice and supportive comments every time I needed them. If you don’t know her, let me warn you before you go there, she is not only hip but smokin’ HOT. And one fine good momma too.

Also I am passing this “Nice Matters Award” on to Deana, you talk about HOT, this woman is just as beautiful on the inside as she is the out side. She is super sweet and shares so much of herself with us through her blog that at times I feel like I am right there with her and her beautiful family. She is also one very talented photographer.

I have to add, I feel very lucky to have such nice on line friends that it was a chore to pick only three to pass this award on to.
I sure could have kept on going.

I did a little shopping on my home from work today. I came home with three pairs of pants, two tops and a couple of unmentionables. All for $103.00! I love this time of year.

Thank you!
It was nice to come from work and find some thing sweet in the mail instead of the usual bills.

We are headed your way! 

Yep, in April Gerry, Allison and I will be tagging along with my mom and step dad to visit some friends in London for a week.
I am pretty excited about it.

We will be staying with a good friend of my mom. Her and her husband have a very large house and have offered it up for the week. So that will cut any hotel and some of our meal cost. How nice is that! They are not only super nice but a very fun couple to spend time with, so I know it will be a great week. And from the emails I have read, they are just as excited to have us as we are to be going. Allison as been some what of pen pal with their granddaughter but I never really thought they would have a chance to ever meet. She is going to be so excited.

While away for the weekend, Gerry and I did a little shopping.
This is what I came home with from 9 West.

I love it!

You brought tears to my eyes this afternoon and you gave me so much to think about.

I am so lucky to be blessed with such wonderful family and friends.
Thank you.
