{Hey, if you have never tried to entertain 6-12 people at a time, while having your entire house torn apart, do try.}
We are making progress. All the new walls are up. The uber lazy duct worker man guy has the new holes cut. Electric is near completion. Then? Lay new subfloor, hang new sheetrock, scrape all the popcorn off the ceiling so it can be replaced with knockdown, get mudding & taping done {not by us}, lay the new flooring, paint entire main level, hang all the new doors, trim, have cabinets installed, bathtub installed, tile completed and we are done. Easy-peasy.
Okay, now I am all wound up again.
**Better news!** I am having a giveaway in celebration of my 1 year blog-o-versary!
I can't explain how much fun I've had over the last year, getting to know all of you. While my hubs may still think I am nuts, I no longer even feel odd saying things like, "My friend Tiff invited me up to Canada to stalk Edward on the set of Twilight." Even though I've never met her IRL. I invite myself to Ashley's wedding. I chat back and forth with Ace about random stuff. I may even know her real name. {Although I still don't know what her blog name is all about.} Counselormama and Seriously?!? make me laugh. I need to meet Mrs. Seriously's mama someday. And who can forget my BFFAEAA?
Moving on...
My giveaway? Up for grabs is a $10 Caribou Coffee Gift Card and a $20 Target Gift Card
To Enter? Leave a comment. I am a simple gal. Contest ends Monday @ Midnight. Mostly because I like how that sounds.
off to do housework...

Sara,
Being the pathetic, sad, lifeless, loser that I am... I was waiting for ME... waiting for MY NAME! And then last but not least, there I was.... BFFAEAA. And I immediately laughed when I saw it. And once again, i'm left wondering what the end letters are for. You do this to me on purpose!!! SO spill it, Woman.
Best Friend Forever And Ever And Always? Am I right this time?
{{hugs}} Love you Sara! So when ya coming down? I could use a friend today!!!!
I love your blog! You always crack me up! And you are a runner! You're my kind of gal.
Happy Blog-o-versary!
So, what's a BFFAEAA?

Congrats...and mmm..caribou!
It seems only fitting that I tell you "Happy Blogoversary" on my wedding anniversary today!
I am so glad that you and I met in the bloggy world. I never would have thought that I would consider some gals that I have never met before IRL to be some of my closest friends. But, that is the truth!
LOVE YA!
PS... I still haven't jumped on the bandwagon... maybe I'll finally read Twilight while on vacation next week...

DOes the fact that I can't walk due to a torn foot tendon make you feel sorry enough for me to give me that target card?

You so definetly need to pick me as the winner even though I have no idea what Caribou coffee is. I don't think we have that in my neck o' the woods. But you must pick me because I used stragegy to enter your contest. I purposely did not comment when I first read this because no one at the top of the list ever wins contests. So- I just KNOW you're picking me!
Just came across your blog not too long ago...and it makes me laugh:)
Oh, oh! Count me in! I love mesome Target! :) Happy Blog-a-versary!
oh yay! Caribou Coffee is so MN and Target is so you!
I can't believe it's only been a year...crazy...I love your blog! Happy Bloggyversary!!
I wanna win!!!!!
:O)
Happy Anniversary Bogger Chick!
how you entertained people in your house when it's torn up is beyond me.
Happy Blogoversaary!!!!
Candie<><
Happy Blogoversaary! It looks like your first give away will have some good takers!
happy blogoversary!!!! YAY!
I'm obviously not entering this giveaway because I am WAY behind but I just wanted to ask if I could go with you to Canada to stalk Edward and meet Tiff (and you, obviously)?
Oh and also, where the heck were you?!? I had your vegetarian meal all ready for you!
