Not long after I started blogging, I stumbled upon an amazing blogging community called SITS. It's a gathering place - a network, if you will, where bloggers support each other and visit each other in order to make new friends, and discover new blogs! (If you haven't visited and haven't participated yet GET OVER THERE!!!)
Today is finally the day that I get to host an OPEN HOUSE of sorts! I've showered, I'm wearing a BRAND new outfit from the Goodwill, and I am chilling the cheapest bottle of wine (and when I say wine I really mean vodka) that I could afford.
Now, pull up a chair while I pour you nice glass - and you can browse some posts I've selected for your reading pleasure!
I'll slip in some humor, some confessions, and some spooky encounters that still give me goosebumps.
Dream a little dream of me.......
The measure of a man....
How to Gross out Your Daughter...
We DO learn stuff in kindergarten...
Thanks for stopping! And can you PLEASE take a dog with you when you leave? They NEVER bark, and stay in the front yard when they run away.......
and if you like what you read, you can leave a tip (vote) over HERE~!!!!
It looks like you have quite a fun blog here!! Can't wait to check it out!
ReplyDeleteHave a great SITS day!!
Well my mom has 23 dogs and NONE of them leave either. A few more won't hurt if you want to take yours there.
ReplyDeleteAlmost a year of blogging? Way to go! Congrats on that and your SITS day.
Did you get the Vodka out of the freezer yet? Let's toast!
Happy SITS Day! I'm so impressed by your blog. Off to wander around it some more!
ReplyDeleteLOL, just read "we DO learn stuff in kindergarten"
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh!
I'd love you to stop by for a visit SITSta!

happy sits day, bff. also. in order to minimize your fear of having me as a stalker, bff stands for: you neat blogger.
ReplyDelete*shifty eyes*
what? you pretend you're married to stephen king. i can't pretend i'm bff with the sits day featured bloggers?
You are hysterical! And I am not just saying that because it is 11:20 at night, and I am deliriously tired, and really should be going to bed. Have a great SITS day!
ReplyDeleteAs my good friend says, "I love your guts". I love your blog and am now following (since I noticed you didn't have any followers and are probably feeling a little lonely right now).
ReplyDeleteI bet you ROCK as a teacher.
Love how you grossed your daughter out.
Over from SITS, congratulations on being featured.

I write for Examiner.com for Teen Relationships (being in my early 20's myself I don't have all the experience in the world but it's something that gets my name and experience and knowledge out there for what I do know) I hope to read more and catch up on all of your blogs again soon. I'll read more another day :)

ReplyDeleteMy last experience with Vodka was in the 8th grade.
happy sits day! i want a drink now. 11:45am isn't too early, right? right??
ReplyDelete(and sorry for no capitalization. kiddo needs to feed thus the loss of a perfectly good arm).
Happy SITS day...I have seen you out and about in Blog-o-land but haven't had a chance to stop by until today. I love it. Going to read some of favorite post...
ReplyDeleteStop by and say hi! :)
congrats on your sits day! What a fun blog!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your SITS day. I'm new to blogging and to SITS for that matter :). Your blog is so much fun to read.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your SITS day!
ReplyDeleteI was looking at your followers, wow that is impressive. So I thought if it goes to 1349 I will be number 1350. It did and I am.
I have weird obsession with things like that. If you don't have many followers I become one. If you have up a March of Dimes with no $ in it I will donate. So I give away the family money and follow way to many people :) I love the way you grossed out your daughter.
Go Mom! Talk with you later....
I've been here more than once. Congrats on your day!
ReplyDeleteGreat blog! Congrats on your SITS Day!
ReplyDelete-Aimee
Happy Sits Day! You are so funny! Can't wait to read more of your posts! Take care,
ReplyDeleteMarit
Happy SITS day! I really enjoyed reading over your blog! I am glad to see I am not the only one with dog issues - we have a sleep-challenged toddler and our pooch decides to bark the MOMENT Little Man falls asleep!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your FB day!
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS day!
ReplyDelete...can't take a dog, but I left 2 more for you, the others just looked so lonely. ;)
btw, the post on grossing out your daughter sounds so much like my mom. I guess I get the ultimate revenge though, she gets to be there when I give birth.
Congrats on your SITS Day!
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS Day! I hope your day is fabulous!!! I can't wait to read on.....
ReplyDeleteYou are too funny! Thanks for the vodka! ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS Day!
You are too funny! Thanks for the vodka! ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS Day!
Well happy SITS day to you!
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS day! You had me at vodka. As for the mom part I can't personally relate, but love to read about the tales from the mommy side. Maybe it will help me deal with my BF's four kids. (Who I not so secretly adore)
ReplyDeleteHaITS day ! AND "happy birthday" for the first year of blogging !!
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS day. So happy for you.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your special day! Can't wait to check out your blog. Just the name makes me feel right at home:)
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS day! Love how to gross out your daughter...I'll have to remember that one!
ReplyDeleteGood job! You so deserve it!
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS day girl! Have a wonderful day, love your blog!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, congratulations on being FB over at SITS.
ReplyDeleteSecond of all, WTH took so long for THAT to happen? I was surprised to see your name today and thought, WOW, did she just sign up or something? She should have been FB-ed long ago. Still, the awesome advantage, of course, is that SITS is even bigger than it was a year ago, so you get LOTSA LOTSA peoples comin' over.
Well done you, and PLEASE tell me you're coming to BlogHer this year!
XOXOXO
-Margaret
CONGRATS!!!! I hope we are having martinis to celebrate this day!!!
