I know I said I was having a 100th post giveaway, but life has a way of throwing a wrench into the best laid plans of mice and men. I haven't forgotten, but it's going to be in the very near future and will probably be some random post # like 107.5 or something.
Seems like there's been someone or something having a crisis for the last few weeks and I've been unable to do much of anything, let alone blog. Here's what's been going on...
1. Spent $1500.00 on my car getting some much needed things fixed and it was in the shop for two weeks, during which time, me & Tony were carpooling and all that jazz.
2. Spent another $750.00 on my daughter's car getting a new a/c & running back and forth from her college town to swap cars with her.
3. Two weeks ago - I had several days off getting my heart procedure done & recuperating.
4. We've had 3 funerals to attend in the last 10 days.
5. We had one wedding to attend.
6. Been out on the farm trying to get the garden in for the last two weekends and evenings after work.
7. Mom had knee surgery this morning and I will be helping Dad out with her for a few days.
8. Been dog-sitting for Princess while she spent spring break in Orlando with her roommate and roomie's big sister who is a flight attendant (they got really cheap-o plane tickets) (that makes 3 dogs for me to take care of & Princess's dog is very time-consuming)
9. One of my friends confided to me yesterday that her 18 year old daughter is pregnant & I'm trying to lend my shoulders to them. I hate it so bad for them. They are trying to wrap their brains around this right now and figure out what to do. They've checked into open adoption, but are not sure they could actually give the baby up. Marriage to the young man is a definite NO. They even had already paid for her college tuition for the 09-10 school year. They are good Christian people. Mistakes do happen to all of us, don't they, whether we're Christians or not.
Anyway, I may be away for a little while, and I will definitely be back with my giveaway. I'll try to check in on ya'll as I can. I miss ya when I'm away - I like to know what's going in your lives.
