Six things Saturday






I am joining the parade of Moms over at MomDot who particpate in Small Things Saturday, it is a great way to do your blog on a Saturday, since it is really quiet out there on weekends.
Any way I was passin by' stopped in to visit a lot of blogs I haven't been to lately, (sorry I am getting back on track! I will be good) and read Mom Dot's this morning.
I thought what fun! soooo..

The idea is to answer in six, six words, six items six sentences, of course I can't for the life of me say anything in less the twenty, but I am going to try.
today's Six things question is:..
If you had Magical Sunglasses, What six things would you like to see?

1. Sharon my baby..... waving to me from heaven
2. Tasha my grand daughter grown up, for just a minute so I can see how she turns out
3. Snow
4. The winning lottery, I don't play but I would if I knew ht numbers! :)
5. (and this should be first)Jesus
6. the future Not to far, just about a year so I can e prepared...

Happenings at my Blog

I've been lax the last couple of days, working on getting my business started, still working on the name but I think I have one..
Okay News..
If you are particpateing in Shannon's from "Welcome to the Nuthouse"  and if your read her blog you know she doesn't really live in a nuthouse, well maybe a little. But her blog is fun .Swap, If  you know about it you know that this is the week all the fun stuff goes in the mail. I've got mine do you have yours? This is a massive project I don't believe she did it. If you don't know what it is let me tell you. She has bloggers from all over the country swapping items that are indigenous to their state with people from other states. The limit was 20 dollars, but I know I spent more. The logistics in this swap boggles my mind, but I am checking my mailbox, for mine. We don't know who in what state got out names so it is even more excitement.

Giveaway Giveaway Give away
I am giving away AVON, yes some samples some full size products some Jewelry it will be about $50.00 dollars in Avon details to follow, 



I read a lot of interesting blogs,  and find a lot of interesting people write those blogs, so I am going to interview a few if they are willing and post the results here over the next few weeks.
Because variety is the spice of life, I am going to pick some from all walks of life, and all of them will be Bloggers who have made a big impact on me and how my  blogging changed something in my life because of what they have gone through or blogged about or just pain existing.
If you want to be interviewed let me know by emailing me and I will be glad to, Frankly I'd appreciate it and while I can't promise you it will do a thing for your blog, it will certainly impact mine so thanks. 
And who knows, it just might do something for yours too...

And so it goes, Tasha just ran through the kitchen yelling something about a camera, she dashed out the back door and I hear water. Haven't the faintest idea what that is all about but I supposed I should go check in case she is drowning a squirrel or something. You know how Tasha is. 
Have a great Sunday all...Thank you for reading and Thank you even more for making comments (tricky little thing aren't I? trying to trick you into commenting)

Which, as my famous line says: goes to show you can't trust anyone these days....

Tag you're it...

It is late Friday night, but by the time you read this it will be Saturday morning. We have spent most of the day looking for a car and that process is totally tiring. Buying a house must be easier. 

I am stealing  an idea from a friend ,blogger Carey at Life in the Carpool lane  Carey did  a blog called Tag you're it  I have to cheat a little,  even though she admonished us not to: you are supposed to take a picture of yourself but my daughter broke the camera yesterday when she was touring a plantation. No, really she did.  So I am going to add the  picture later, honestly. 

And I know you who know me and know I haven't taken a picture voluntarily since birth are shaking their heads, but I am really going to buy a new camera after the car and do it I just hope I don't get censored because the pic is missing. I might have to hide out.  

The second thing I am doing is having my first  giveaway. 
I just started selling AVON, yet again and I am going to make up three baskets to give away of samples and full sized products. I have  not yet quite decided the rules,  but that will be coming in the following weeks. And if you think this is just to get followers you are wrong. It is to get readers and customers, so there.

 The third thing is I will be with moving or just redecorating my blog. I am talking to a couple of good blog designers who think Word press might be a better venue, I don't know I hate to move. It's like leaving Charleston, you know? 

So I have a few things happening in the upcoming weeks. 
The only thing I have noticed about life is it never stays the same as much as you would like it to.
Just when you think it is figured out, it changes. So Tag I'm It!

Here are the rules:
  • Take a picture of yourself right now
  • No primping or preening, just snap the picture
  • Load the picture on to your blog
  • Tag some people to play
  • NO CHEATING!
  • And don't think I got away with anything because I expect Carey to give me a very stern scolding. 

8 things I am looking forward to:
  • 1. I have to agree with Carey on this one: Tasha being Potty trained before marriage.
  • 2. Going to the Blog-Her Conference in July.
  • 3. Finally getting that new car
  • 4. Going to Martha's Vineyard
  • 5. Being able to plant flowers in the back yard
  • 6. Getting this business off the ground so I don't have to work,
  • 7. Buying a new camera, and new computer
  • 8  Going shopping for a new wardrobe since I lost so much weight. It would be nice to have my jeans stay up. 

  •  8 Things I did yesterday:

  • 1. Cleaned the house totally even the walls 
  • 2. waxed the wood floors
  • 3. pretended to be a rock singer while cleaning the kitchen
  • 4. pretended to play the drums with David Meese (I was home alone had no sense)
  • 5. Did Salsa Dancing.
  • 6  Watched The Bucket List 
  •  7. ate leftover cookie dough from Easter cookies in the freezer.
  • 8. watched the car overheat yet again. 
  1. 8 things I wish I could do.
  • 1. Dance Dance Dance
  • 2. Sing sing sing
  • 3. Play tennis like I used to.
  • 4. Talk to my Sharon.
  • 5. Talk to my mom and Grandma  (both have passed on)
  • 6.  Learn to Fly (an airplane)
  • 7. Change a lot of things in my life :)
  • 8. Make Stromboli like Giada on Everyday Italian actually cook anything like Giada.

 8 Shows I watch

  • 1. Amazing Race! Love it!
  • 2. Barney, 
  • 3, Barney,
  • 4, Barney  (Seriously) Tasha loves it. 
  • 5. CSI Miami
  • 6. Max and Ruby
  • 7. Dora
  • 8 and of course Diego. 

I find if you have kids the TV is usually ruled by the younger set. Some days I really hope Diego doesn't rescue the animal and Baby Jaguar turns to Diegio and says lets take a break and go skiing, baby lion can fend for himself,  you know just for fun. I'm kidding don't call Noggin on me....

Okay so as Carey said, if you want an easy post this is it...I am tagging three people but everyone else feel free to steal from me, after  all I stole it  from Carey. Which just goes to show, you can't trust anyone these days.

Off to buy the camera. Really.
