We Have a Winner!

Sadly, the big giveaway is over.  Have you heard the collective sigh across the land from the husbands? They are glad to have their wives back from blogland.  The laundry has piled sky high and the pizza deliverer knows where to go just from hearing the last name.

My random number generator, a.k.a. my husband, picked comment number 76 as the winner of a Jendi Jean Bag.  Here is the original post explaining the giveaway.

Congratulations to Liz who blogs as Scrapbooking Mama!  Her choice of the blue bag will be mailed to her this week.  Hope you get some good use out of it, Liz!

Seven Blogosphere Events

There’s some exciting stuff coming up in the blogosphere and on this site!  At least it’s exciting for me; easily amused, I know.  Beats Dirty Diapers.

Seven Blogosphere Events 

  1. Sarah at Real Life tagged everybody who reads her post.  [Be careful.  If you link through you will be tagged too.]  It’s a random 7 Things Meme that she turned into 7 Things You Can Do To Help a Fellow Blogger.  Now I turned it into Seven Bloggy Events.
  2. The Bloggy Giveaways Carnival will start January 28.  [I need to get sewing!]  I’m working on a new page for my site that I want to have up by then.  I would tell you about it ahead of time, but then I’d have to kill you.
  3. The Big Bloggy Move participants will be listed at After A Cup of Coffee or Two on February 11.  If you scroll down a little you can see their sidebar button.  If you have a new/redone site since December you can join.  I’m in!
  4. The Ultimate Blog Party at 5 Minutes For Mom starts on March 7 so I have a little time for that one.
  5. I contacted Mandie at Life in the Craft Lane about some graphics.  I’m getting excited now!  She has lots of freebie graphics of buttons and things.  If you have a country theme on your blog you especially need to check out her site.
  6. Crystal at Biblical Womanhood is having a Gift Certificate Giveaway – $100 for Vision Forum.  This ends January 28.  She also mentions that Vision Forum is having a 20% -40% off sale for their products.  Plus, because I just told you about it I can have a bonus entry.  Thank you very much.
  7. There is always, always, always, giveaways and contests in the blogosphere. Laura William’s Musings frequently hosts contests.  Chryll’s Corner is having a Mid-Winter Giveaway. 21st Century Christian has a giveaway page; right now it’s a book.   There’s a Homeschool Weekly Book Giveaway at Heart of Wisdom Blog.  Plus many more that I just don’t have time for because my husband wants to use the computer.  I should be a good example and share, I guess. 

Third Book Winner
