blog stuff

Because I simply can not wait, I will be doing the drawing in the morning for the gift card.  I really wish I would have made it more complicated than simply clicking a few buttons in Excel to pick the winner.  Maybe I’ll come up with something just as fair and yet more exciting before the morning.  Nah, probably won’t.

But I still can’t wait!!!  Right now, there are 317 entries and that still shocks me!  I guess finally I get something right in the blogosphere.

I’ll probably be doing the announcement around 9am EST tomorrow so check back to see the lucky winner!

• So thankful everything is ok with our youth leaders now.  Big miracle for me this week.
• Thankful everyone in my house is healthy.  I keep reading about all the bugs going around.
• Thankful for the rain this week.
• Thankful we got paid this week and I got to pay off our credit cards with some extra money.  Yay!
• Just thankful this has been a good week.  No stress, got paid, everyone’s happy and healthy, relaxing week.  Life is good.

Go here for some weekly giveaways getting ready to start up. 

I just found Amanda I think through Fall Y’all Giveaway and am enjoying her site so far.  And no, I’m not getting paid for this one.  I’m just sharin’ the free stuff…for free.

OK, today’s the last day of October.  You know, in case you haven’t seen a calendar today.  Sorry, I’m being silly. 

Although I gave an update the other day on PayPerPost, I wanted to give a full monthly update since this is the last day of the first month.  I technically didn’t start posting until October 7 for PPP and I think October 11 for PayU2Blog so this is actually only 3 weeks of posts.

This got really long, so read the rest of the entry…

This is going to probably be the MOST IDIOTIC WFMW post you’ve ever read. 

I’m glad you’re here too.

Ever since I was in my early twenties (Wahhh…I’m getting old) I’ve had issues with my skin breaking out.  And not just annoying little pimples, like cyst type stuff.  After trying different kinds of skin care treatment, I visited a dermatologist and finally got put on Tazorac and Duac after I got done with all my babies and breastfeeding (as the dr put it).  It helped a great deal but I still had these little tiny bumps on my forehead I could never get rid of.  The dr suggested I increase my Tazorac but for some reason I can never make myself do it twice a day.  My normal routine is to wash my face with Cetaphil and then put it on but I never used a washcloth for my face-just water and soap with my hands-because I thought it would irritate my face.  Anyway, a couple weeks ago I started using a washcloth with my soap to scrub my forehead and voila, my tiny bumps are almost gone!  Major improvement!

So what is my WFMW?? Wash your face with a washcloth.  Some great stuff there.

I’ve gotten a couple emails from people regarding the receipt of a ton of emails.  This happened when you commented and automatically got subscribed to any more comments on that post.  If you do not want that in future posts, just uncheck it before submitting your comments.

If you are subscribed to the comments from my giveaway or any other post and getting really tired of hitting the delete button, please let me know and I can unsubscribe you. thx

Since I’m one of those non-crafty people, I’m calling for all crafty people to go be an exhibitor at the Craft Show Connection.  Very cute stuff on there already and they want more people added.

I’m posting this as a favor to An Iowa Mom, who I read every day.  And yes, as a bonus, I get a referral fee.  So go register.
