Survey

Just for fun I have posted a survey on the side....I'm just curious to see where I fall in the scheme of Christmas shopping!

I will be the first one to answer and next it's your turn! :)

OMG!!!!

Back in September I had you all go vote at A Womb at the Innsane for me to win a handbag and I won (with all of your help)...click here and here to refresh your memory! Well a couple of weeks ago I got the handbag and it's so ADORABLE!! After some issues that poor Kadi had with the post office & the lady that makes the bag (running out of the fabric of the offered bag), it ended with me being able to pick out one that I wanted from Pink Lemonade Bags (they are all so cute it was hard to narrow it down to just one.

Here is a picture of me with the bag...so cute isn't it!!!:

Now for the OMG part of this...

After getting caught up with some of my own posting today I started to read some of my favorite Blogs. I finally get to A Womb at the Innsane, start reading her post for today and OH MY GOSH...it's me...on her blog...which gets hundreds if not thousands of readers a day...holy crapola!!!! Seriously go check it out...it's little ole me!!

She had asked for a photo of me with the bag when I got it so she could post about it, but I never thought that she would really do it! 

I'll be signing autographs later! :) Thanks Again Kadi!!

I've Been Tagged

I have been tagged by my friend, Adriene, to tell 6 things that the blogging world might not know about me..so here it goes:

1. I have never been able to keep my bedroom clean for more then a day (my mom can attest to this)...not sure what is wrong with me. I have always admired those who have the bedroom that looks like nobody lives there.

2. I LOVE shoes (or ALL accessories)...which is part of the whole bedroom issue because I can't walk in my closet because it is covered with shoes. I cannot walk into a store without at least checking out the shoe section. When I find ones I like, if I can't buy them at that time, I obsess about them until I do! Sickness I know!

3. I was a cheerleader from 7th grade until my freshman year in college. I would have cheered longer had I not met Don and ruined my GPA...oops!

4. I was a vocal music major in college and sang 1st soprano, but the kicker is that I can't really read music. I get the gist of it but not very well at all...I do it all by ear! This my friends is why I'm not teaching.

5. I hate cats. I hat when they come up to you and rub all over you...they totally know when you don't like them. Not to mention they are pissy snobs!

6. At age four I was bit in the face by an English Bulldog named Sarge. My friends and I were sitting on my back steps along with the dog...the neighbor boy leaned over and kissed his dog and then I did, and then chomp right in the face! I only remember bits and pieces of it, but the one thing that sticks out in my mind are the royal blue straps that the ER strapped me down with. Oh and the cool plastic play food that my mom got for me when I was done. The dog was put to sleep (not his only offense...he got the mailman too) and he pretty much paid for my wedding!
7. I'm throwing in a bonus fun fact...I hate mornings!! If I could sleep until 10-11 I totally would! I much prefer being up really late and sleeping in!

Tag...Tony, Christin, Neisha, Amanda S, and Krista H...you are all it!!! Sorry guys, I'm not sure who else reads my blog so you all are the lucky ones! :)

My Very 1st Blog Award!!

**Oops I was supposed to add 8 people and only added 7...who's the lucky 8th person...actually I'm going to make it 9 because I couldn't pick just one?

I was awarded this by Kadi of wombattheinnsane.com. Thank you, Kadi I am honored as this is my very 1st award!! How cool is that people...she is a blogger celeb and thought of little ole me!

Here's the translation of the award and the meaning behind it:

“This blog invests and believes, in ‘proximity’ [meaning, that blogging makes us 'close' - being close through proxy] "They are all charming blogs, and the majority of them aim to show the marvels of friendship; there are persons who are not interested when we give them a prize, and then they help to cut these bows; do we want that they are cut, or that they propagate?"Then let’s try to give more attention to them! So with this prize we must deliver it to eight bloggers that in turn must make the same thing and put this text.”

Thanks again Kadi!

The seven blogs that I am going to award are:

1. Adriene of catonsblog.blogspot.com
2. Tony of spicci.blogspot.com
3. Kate E. (private...I think)
4. Brooke of texanbrooke.blogspot.com
5. Christin (private)
6. Carrie Y (private)
7. Amy W. of amwalk21.blogspot.com
8. Neisha of www.hairstontigers.blogspot.com
9. Krista & Rob of cowboyhunts.blogspot.com

Thank you to all of you for coming by and reading my blog and leaving comments. I love to blog (as all of you do too) and I love being able to share a little bit of us with you!

Love to you all and please "pay it forward"!
