Feel Good Friday


Feel Good Friday is brought to you by The Girl Next Door Grows Up .


Yes, it is that time of the week. If you want to know what Feel Good Friday is all about, just click the above link and hurry on over and check it out.

I won't lie.

It has been a stressful week.

One of those weeks that make you want to crawl back into bed and pull the comforter over your head and just stay there.

My Pops has been sick.

My little one is now under the weather.

I haven't been able to sleep, concentrate on much of anything, or do much. I think the stress is going to make me lose all my hair. Plus, I've got the makings of a wicked sore throat going on.

But, there are always things that make you smile during the stressful times.

There are those good friends that send you strange jokes via emails that make you laugh. Okay, some you just shake your head at and hit delete but there are others that really make you laugh.

Then there is my little one.

Did I tell you that she decided to wear the toilet paper around her head when we ran an errand earlier in the week?

Yes, she likes toilet paper wrapped around her head, ninja style. She has been doing this for a while now.

I know it made at least one gentlemen's day as he thought she was the cutest thing with it wrapped around her head and she made him laugh.

Think That The Stomach Bug Is Going Around


Poor Em.

I know she doesn't feel good. These last couple of days she is going through diapers and clothes quickly.

Just trying to keep her hydrated.

Not sure if she caught something from Pops who had been sick or just something that is going around because of this crazy weather.

Anyway, we had to run a couple of errands today and just as I pull back into the driveway she falls asleep so I get the pleasure of carrying her into the house. She is solid and hard for me to carry.

We got as far as the couch.

I got her some juice, gave her the infamous Dolly, and this is where we are at.

Giveaways/Reviews, etc

I have been debating about doing giveaways and reviews of products on my blog.

I haven't decided if this is a good or a bad idea.

I have talked to a few "companies," and it appears that they would like blogs to have more followers, which I can understand.

But, I don't just want to get followers because I'm giving something away. I want followers with whom I have something in common with or because they like to read what I write. This is why I follow the blogs that I do, because I enjoy reading them.

I laugh with ya, I tear up with ya.

Plus, no one wants to be the first one to give me a chance at a review. Another thing I understand.

Then there is the issue with ads. I don't really want to go that route. I have seen some blogs that are so clustered with google ads that it is hard to read.

I'm considering trying that "link within" widget that I have seen on quite a few blogs that I enjoy. The ones that use it, do you like it?? I know it only links to similar posts, which is a good thing.

Decisions, decisions, decisions.
