Thank you to everyone for entering!  I hope you all have a wonderful Monday, and hope to start blogging more regularly from now on!

If you have a case of the Mondays then....

Host a Giveaway!

I was recently contacted by CSN stores, and have been given the opportunity to giveaway  $40 to any of there over 200+ stores.

CSN stores have a wide variety of things to choose from, like a sleeper sofa,  kitchen items, home decor, and shoes.

Just browsing through the different sites, I love the fact the many of the items featured have free shipping, and the prices are very competitive.  How can you go wrong?

So how do you enter?

Well that's easy!

I'm giving everyone 3 opportunities to win the $40 gift card!

#1 (Mandatory) You must be a follower and/or subscriber of my blog to enter this giveaway.  Make sure to leave a comment telling me that you follow my blog, and you're automatically entered! 


#2 Blog about this giveaway and let your friends know about the opportunity to win some free stuff (and leave me a comment letting me know you did this!).


#3  Go to this CSN store, and let me know your favorite sleeper sofa!  Why a sleeper sofas?  Well because who doesn't love a good sleeper sofa?  It's like a couch, but it's also a bed!  BONUS!


Mine just happens to be this one!

Good luck everyone!  The giveaway ends on Friday the 21st at 5 PM Pacific Time!

And I hope everyone's Monday goes quickly!

Just kidding....

You will have to go here to find out the winner from the joint giveaway!

Thank you all who entered! It's always wonderful to meet new blog friends and have new things to read about!

On another note, I forgot to bring my camera cable, so I may be a little slow on the new posts until we get back to Arizona!

Enjoy time with your family!

Success...is measured in the small things

Today is my 200th blog entry, so don't forget to enter my Joint Giveaway with Katie! You have until Friday at 5 PM Pacific!

-----------------------------------------------------

Over the past year (more specifically the last 6 months) I have been packing on the pounds. Some call it the newlywed weight, I call it the "newlywed-transitional-changing job-leaving friends-not liking new job" weight. And as you know from this post, I have started to work on those love handle-thunder thigh issues that are plaguing me currently. I finished Week 5 Day 2 today and it felt great! I love that I ran 8 minutes (twice) and didn't die. Small steps people! Tomorrow will be my 1st 20 minute run in a while, and I want to thank everyone that gave me song inspiration! It has really made a difference!



Anyways, I have been feeling great and my clothes are fitting better (instead of resembling casing on a stuffed sausage). So in honor of this I wanted to share with you a conversation I had with the hubs yesterday.



Me: My scrubs are finally getting looser

Rhett: That's good

Me: Yeah I know, I no longer have to stretch them out with a squat when I first put them on

*I then demonstrated what I meant to the hubs, and he couldn't stop laughing*



Success in the small things people! At least the morning workout makes up for my poor food choices during the day!

Guest post and giveaway!

Everyone get excited! Today is a special day! My sweet friend Katie is guest posting! And to comemorate this wonderful occasion we are both hosting a giveaway! Just it time for Christmas!

Get ready to meet an incredible woman!

-----------------------------------------

Oh I am so excited today! My name is Katie and am so happy to announce that Kelley and I want to share some holiday cheer with you! So... we are doing a giveaway!

Now, if you have been here anytime at all you know that I am cold most of the time. And I'm a BIG fan of chocolat. And Miss Kelley is so joyful and pleasant that she usually entertains my crazy ideas. So we have jointly decided we will be gifting one of these! Sorry, but you will need your own cup. And the saucer is optional, but recommended.
We might even throw in a box of these, if we are feeling especially merry on Friday!

So... to be eligible to win, there are just a few things you need to do...

A. Follow our blogs (mine is found here), and...

B. Leave a comment about your favorite holiday treat! (A comment for Kelley's blog = 1 entry; a comment on mine = a second entry (or vise versa)).

3. Then, if you would like one additional entry, blog about us and leave a comment saying you did so (at either of our blogs!).

So that is a total of three (3) possible entries for each of you. Any questions?

Now, your comments should be in by Friday at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time. And we will randomly choose a winner over the weekend and will announce on Monday morning!

Immediate family (ahem, Rhett and Mr. RH, you, unfortunately, are ineligible to win).

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!

Oh what fun!

So I really don't have anything exciting to post about, so I totally understand if you stop reading about

here....

BUT if you continue on I want to give you all a heads up that I will be hosting a giveaway on my 100th post!  Now I apologize because it won't be the most fabulous giveaway ever (I don't get these google ads, after having it on my page for like 6 months I've earned a whopping total of $1.21), but I have decided to follow a New Mexican theme, in honor of my remaining few weeks here.  SO get pumped...only 7 more posts until the giveaway!

AND in other news, I want to introduce you all to a fabulous new blogger!  McBee from McBee's World is a super awesome chick!  She is what I like to think of as a much cooler Martha Stewart!  Her blog is full of tips, recipes, and generally hilarious and thought provoking stories!  So run, don't walk over here!

Have a lovely Tuesday everyone!
