BlogOversary

Today marks one year of blogging for me...

There have been many changes along way, I started out on wordpress and the blog was titled Confessions of a SAHM. I think I had 3 readers, my how things have changed...

I am gonna keep this short and sweet because it's really not so much about me as it is about you...I will try and not get all mushy...

Those of you that come back day after day and leave the nicest comments, you laugh with me, you share my beans with me, offer advice, forgive all my typos and make me feel special. Thank you for your support.

Everything that this blog is, is because of you and I Thank you for being the BEST internets/online friends anyone could ever have. Everyone of you mean something special to me and to show my appreciation I am giving away a grab bag of goodies...
I am not saying what will be in the box, because I want YOU to be surprised-it will be valued around $75 full of some of my favorite things.

To Enter...

You do not have to technorati this blog...
You do not have to tweet this blog...
You do not have to facebook this blog...
You do not have to blog about this giveaway...
You do not have to follow this blog...
You do not have to promise me your first born...
You do not have to have a blog to win...

All you have to do is leave a comment...then over the weekend one of the beans will draw a name-cuz we like to kick it old school and I haven't figured out random interger # generator yet...

 My confession for today: I You All

    Before I lose my mind

    This is your first year baby
    And I feel like I'm found
    Gots myself a bloggy friend
    who understands the runaround

I'm curious though ... why switch from Wordpress to Blogger?

  86. Happy Blogoversary! I have had fun all along the way, watching what my g-beans are doing, and what is causing you to blog each day. It is therapy to be able to talk about things-the same things that other people deal with on a daily basis,too. Somehow you manage to make a crisis into something fun. Congrats! Love you, Mom
