White Wednesday & A Giveaway!

So, this "White Wednesday" finds me cameraless and using the camera on my Iphone! Don't even ask about the camera issues! I thought the light in my bathroom was pretty good, especially since there is a skylight over the tub, and the bathroom is done in mostly whites, so this is where myself and my Iphone were snapping some photos. And please be sure to stop by Kathleen's blog to find a whole list of blogs filled with beautiful photos. And personally, I'm pretty fond of Kathleen and her blog posts as well!





Above is my old, clawfoot bathtub. I always "wonder" what it would be like to soak in a bubble bath in it. Actually, I've been wondering just that for the past two years since my "boys" (Bryce and Vinnie) never finished the plumbing to the old tub! Thanks guys and as you can tell I'm a very patient person, or at least most of the time!! I've never actually done a "giveaway" so you have to be patient with me here. I noticed the other day that this Friday will be my 750th post I've written. I wrote my first blog post on April 10th of 2008. I remember New Years Eve, waiting for 2009 to arrive. I made the decision that I would write a blog post everyday, and somehow I have kept that promise to myself! So, in honor of "promises", I will be giving away the awesome purse pictured above that was handmade by Sandra, one of my Country Roads dealers. And inside of it, I will add a copy of the new "Inspirations, Where Women Create"! Jenny Doh was so kind to host a book signing at Country Roads last summer. So, I guess this is what I'm supposed to say next in regards to what you have to do to "enter" to win the stuff! First, leave me a comment on any of my blog posts up until Sunday night letting me know you want to enter. Secondly, if you aren't a follower, start being one and you get two entries. And lastly, to get another entry, just tell me in a sentence or two how you "give back" to this crazy world of ours when you can! You know, as in "practicing random acts of kindness"! Monday I will have Riley pull out a name and let you all know who it is. And I promise I will mail the winner the purse & book to you. I say that because almost a year ago when Rachel Ashwell did a book signing of her new book at Country Roads I had Rachel sign a copy for my buddy, Malisa, and another copy for Debbie, as in Talking Trash. And sadly, I still haven't mailed them but I swear to you both, REALLY, they will be there any day now! Lastly, happy "White Wednesday" to you all!!
