22Mar08 Contest at Scribblescratch

So I don’t usually bother with contests because let’s face it, I am so unlucky I never win anything. However, when I saw what the prize was, I just had to try. It’s this pink purse with round handles…so pretty. I think it would be great for spring/summer. Certainly makes me think of warmer weather. While I am not usually a purse type of gal (I usually just grab my debit card and go), this purse has me inspired.

Teresa is holding a new contest over at her personal blog. Those entering have a chance at winning a lovely and uniquely designed half moon handbag by Patti. Teresa is also willing to ship the prize anywhere, so no matter where you live you can participate.

17Mar08 The Biggest Lose-Her

Sadly the new layout is not ready for public consumption as yet but do stay posted, you just never know when I might spring it on you.

SPOILER ALERT

I must rant once again about The Biggest Loser (sorry – I’m hooked). I absolutely HATE Ali. I actually felt sorry for her when she got voted off and was very impressed with her weight loss efforts. That laugh of hers is totally annoying me, not to mention her standoffishness. She didn’t want to team up with the women when she came back into the house and instead chose to stick with her pink team colours. Okay what really got me tonight is her totally backstabbing Brittany. I thought for one moment that Brittany might actually make it through the elimination unscathed. That bitch Ali actually said that she felt like she was forming an alliance with Brittany. Last time I checked you don’t vote out people you’re allied with!! Then what’s up with Dan? I mean, I guess he had a tough decision to make since Jay was his team-mate, but Brittany was right in pointing out that Jay is definitely the bigger threat. Wasn’t Dan continually going on about doing whatever he needed to to get himself farther in the game? Sad to see Brittany go, it just won’t be the same.

15Mar08 Spring is in the air

What an absolutely glorious day it was today. I’m so glad I decided to get myself out of the house or I would never have known just how beautiful it was out. I’m not exactly sure of the temperature, but I think it was like 5 or 6°C with the sun shining brightly. Hubby called from the road (as he does numerous times a day) and we discussed how nice it was outside. He said he heard on the radio that we’ve had so much snow this year that the giant snowbergs that have accumulated in mall parking lots won’t even have melted by the end of the summer. Wow, wouldn’t that be sight in July? A big pile of leftover snow.

So anyway, I had mentioned to hubby that there was an outfit for baby D at Wal-Mart that I was lusting after (yes, you can lust after baby clothes), but that the price was keeping me from buying it. He didn’t think it was too much to pay, so that was the go ahead I needed. Since we are going to London tomorrow for my Mum’s birthday celebration (it should have been last weekend but was postponed due to weather) I thought that would be a great reason to have a new outfit for baby D. Never being one to manage just going to Wal-Mart for the one thing I wanted to buy I ended up also getting him a 2-pack of pjs for when the weather gets a bit warmer and a striped t-shirt and pants.
