Thousands of free things

It snowed. Then came the ice. Then the rain. Now it's foggy and supposed to be in the mid-50's today. Yep. We've pretty much run the gamut of winter related weather in two days. Very strange though my kid thinks it's heaven sent as she got to leave school early yesterday and is sleeping in due to school being delayed today. On the plus side, it was pretty and now it's gone AND I only fell once. Hooray!

Well, you know how I like my links and they always seem to come on Wednesday's. I'm thinking of making this like winking to links wednesday or something cute. I can't help myself. I've found some of the best blogs due to links. And, did I mention the giveaways?! There are absolutely a ton of giveaways going on this week. There are literally over a 1000 giveaways this week. Don't believe me. Go check out Bloggy Giveaways. Here are a few of my personal faves you might want to check out.

Le Papier Studio is giving away a $75 gift certificate to her Etsy shop. Such beautiful paper products! I'd take one of everything.

Living Locurto is giving away a candle and a reed diffuser worth $40 each. I would love to try the woods scent. I just love the smell of the woods especially if there are a lot of pine trees.

Bella Casa is having an Etsy party and giving away lots of stuff. Just to give you an idea there is a gift certificate to Kooky Handbags and Custom made clipboards" and a beautiful box from Pretty Organizedthat would be terrific for getting organized(hint, hint).

Then there is Valmg who is giving away a terrific spa box complete with soap and bath salts.

You know how I am now on a weightloss program( 8lbs total so far!)? Well, i Diet and Fitness is the place to be especially for their giveaway. They are $100. No joke. This site rocks but it rocks even more with the giveaway.

One last thing. Check out this post from the most awesome Sassy Stephanie if you wonder if you really are a blogger".

That is all for today. Enjoy. Have fun and go enter a giveaway or two or a hundred.

Day of Reflection and some Fun

Oh, December 31st- the last day of the year. Did you know today is No interruptions Day? A day to reflect on past and present.

Well, we all know we won't get an entire day with no interruptions, but I'm hoping my little blog will give you like 5 minutes of no interruptions. You might not reflect, but you might have a little fun.

Take a walk along the beach. At least a virtual one.



Now here are a couple of fun things. Run on over to SITS and enter to win a Keurig Brewing System and $50 worth of cups. Don't run to fast though because I really want to win this myself. You know how I feel about coffee. Don't know what a Platinum Brewing System does? Check it out here.

Next go on over to my bloggy friend, Columbialily, and wish her a very Happy Birthday! She's turning 30 this week, and no, she won't mind as she's been saying so herself on her blog. I would never tell a woman's age without her permission! Anyway. She's having a few contests and tutorials. Plus, her blog is just fantastic! So slip on over and wish her happy b-day.

As of tomorrow, I'm going to be back to regularly scheduled programming. My whole blogging month is planned and ready to go with the exception of a couple of days, but I like to leave a few days open for fun things I find. Happy New Year! I hope your New Year brings love and lots of good things.
