Bless Our Hearts and Hope to Fly!

Hi Family and Friends!

My sweet daughter, Catherine (aka Irish Dancer Girl) is happy to announce that she will be participating in Jump Rope for the Heart in honor of her father who passed away on December 27, 2012. She has created her own webpage to graciously accept donations for the American Heart Association, which happened to be her father's favorite charity.

This wonderful event is helping my girl turn her grieving into blessings. She is so excited to be helping others as a way to cherish her father's memory. If you can spare a bit, she would be forever grateful for your kindness.

Here's a link to her webpage:

Catherine Smith's Jump Rope for the Heart Event to Honor Her Father, William Smith

Thank you in advance for any support you can give. We are slowly, but surely moving forward with our happy memories. We miss him deeply every single day. It makes my heart so happy to know my daughter finally sees some light during this difficult time. I am grateful for your kindness to my darling girl.

With Love and Blessings

My wallet is light, and my donation was small, but I know every penny counts.

Guess Whoooo's 100? (It's the Mother of All Giveaways!)

(Update! Comments are now closed for the Monster Giveaway! Thank you for participating!) Whooo's 100? I am! This is my 100th post! To say I am astonished and humbled by the incredible support of my blog from fellow bloggers, friends and family would be an ginormous understatement! I am truly, deeply grateful that ya’ll stop by and visit me! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! (I had this scheduled to post at midnight, but for some reason, it didn't! I got up to check it about 1:30 am and discovered blogger's mischief! Sorry if you came by then!) All righty then…do you have a cup of coffee, hot cocoa, tea, martini? How about a masseuse? You’re gonna need it! It’s my 100th post and by the time you are done reading it, you’ll probably feel as old and tired as Rip Van Winkle! You know me and my long winded rambley-ness! (....the giveaway is here..I promise!) So, this is what I’ve come to know about blogging in the last 100 days…. Blogging is like taking a vacation to a place you n...

Not Me Monday! I Am NOT Adding More Prizes to My Monster Giveaway..or am I???

NOT ME Monday is brought to you by the fabulous MckMama over at My Charming Kids . Please send your well wishes for her wee Stellan. He needs our love and prayers. Thanks! I did NOT curl up and rock back and forth sucking my thumb in a dark corner for hours last week because of the stupid surge that sent my laptop to the Geek Squad hospital during my MONSTER giveaway. I would NOT act like such a baby. Also, I did NOT cry so hard on Tuesday (and Wednesday) that my right eye was actually swollen shut for a while. I would NOT be so emotional over a computer. My son did NOT tell me I was EMO because I did NOT wear black all week and act depressed. I did NOT stand in the middle of my yard shaking my fist to the heavens and yell (in my Scarlett O'Hara voice) "As God as my witness, I will never be laptop free again!" I also did NOT roll around in agony in my yard screaming.."WHY? WHY? WHY is this crap happening to me!!!!???? Why this week????"" I did NOT feel HO...

My life has been forever changed by all of the bloggy love I have received since Dec. 31, 2008. Thank you! My 100th post is coming next Monday.

I've gathered a HUGE amount of goodies for my giveaway! I am taking a poll over the next few days to help me determine if I should break it into several groups of goodies or offer one big lolla-pa-looza! (Just vote over on the left sidebar. I really appreciate your input!) I’ve had a few emails asking me how I chose the items for this extravaganza. I am sharing my favorite things with you! I am also throwing in a few things chosen by Tween Caveboy and Miss Kitty. Plus, I’m adding some fun items from my own shops, Black Crow Boutique and Mon...
