My bloggie to do list

Lately I've had a bunch of little bloggie to-dos, so I'm lumping them all together in one post. Stay with me here...

First: A giveaway!!!
Yes, lately I've been the giveaway queen. But August marks my six month anniversary of blogging. (Can I consider myself *not* a newbie now?) And in the next week or so, I'll publish my 200th post. Cause for a minor celebration? Yes. (Just don't ask my hubby or his eyes may just roll back so far they fall out of his head.)

So this is what's up for grabs:

Cute, no? Shelly, the gal who won my purse giveaway, has her own Etsy store, and has graciously donated this cute pendant necklace toward my own little bloggie celebration.

Here's what to do:
1) Visit Shelly's store and comment on this post with the item you'd buy if you don't win this cute gold heart necklace.

2) Contest is open until Thursday, August 14 at 10 p.m. Central. You may enter only once per day, but each day of the contest if you'd like. If your comment doesn't name an item from Shelly's store, or if you enter more than once in the same day, I'ma kick out that entry.

3) Winner will be announced in Friday's Flashback post.
You need to pick an item you like from Shelly's store, but you'll win the gold heart pendant/chain pictured.

Next, a few weeks ago, I won a contest over at Rocks in my Dryer. Lookie what I got!



It's from Couture Moms. Green isn't the first color I would have chosen, but hell, its still better than some of the tees I got rid of this past week. In fact, its rather cute, wouldn't you say? You can order a customized one with the number of kids you have on it. (ie. you have three kids, you'd order a mom³ shirt.) And Kate (from one of my fave shows, Jon & Kate + 8) has one, too!

Item #3: An award.
I must apologize for "losing" this award, but Brenda from The Queen of Good Intentions awarded this to me waaay back in July and sometimes I just spaz out and lose track of things. Thankfully, I've not yet lost my kids.

You're supposed to award it to seven people, but damn, that'd take me a lot of time. Instead, I'm giving it to:

1) Heather at Autumn of Oak Hollow. I think she's one of those bloggers who just doesn't get the attention she deserves. I ♥ the way she writes, especially in her recent post she called "Dance like everyone's watching." Go read it - she makes a good point!

2) Mrs. 4444 from Half-Past Kissing Time.

3) Melissa from Green Girl in Wisconsin.


Now, please don't be upset I didn't write raving reviews of #2&3. Its late and I'm tired and I want to give equal bloggie love to all, but also don't want to delete what I wrote after Heather's name. They're all equally great bloggers, or would I be reading them? Go check 'em out. 'Nuff said.

And last, but certainly not least, Heather, at aforementioned Autumn at Oak Hollow awarded me this lil' beautfy.


And the award goes to:

1) Shannon at Southern Grits & Tidbits.

2) Kim at It's a Dog and Pony Show.

3) Mel at Rock and Drool.

That's it, people. That's all I got in me for tonight - now go check out Shelly's store & comment!
