This has been quite a weekend… Friday night I cleaned. Seriously cleaned meaning that when I vacuumed (yes, I know I said I hated doing it… but it’s necessary!) I actually moved the chair in my living room and the bar stools and table in my dining room. I’m just saying, I don’t think the floor has been this clean since the roomie moved out a year ago.
Saturday my family {and some of my dad/brother’s friends} went to the Michigan high school basketball finals at the Breslin Center (MSU Campus) in East Lansing. I realized that I don’t think I’ve ever been to the Breslin Center before… not bad. And we saw some interesting (and not so interesting) games – and players – that day as well. All in all, really glad that I went and had a great time.
Then came Sunday. My cold is still not gone — and now I sound like Phoebe from Friends in the episode where she has a cold and thus creates her “sexy singing voice”. I’ve been challenged by Ms. Random on twitter last night to create a v-log singing “Smelly Cat”. We’ll see if I can get it taped today with one of my coworkers… and if I can remember the words to “Smelly Cat.”
So that’s what I did this weekend… I hope you had a splendid time as well! 
But now I am happy to announce…
My FIRST Giveaway EVER!!!
Yes, you read that right. And I’m hoping that it’s the start of something here… something new… something fresh… and I promise, something that won’t happen every day — maybe once a month.
Anyway, for anyone that knows me (especially those in my everyday real life) you know that I love bags/purses. It’s seriously getting pretty bad in my closet. I have an organization system for them.
So when CSN Stores approached me about offering this Thomas Paul bag… I was all about it.
Features:
- 100% cotton fabric
- An elegant Black tree print
- White tote with Black print on both sides and Lime Green trim and handle
- 14″ W x 16″ D
So what do you think? Isn’t it cool… I love it and would love to win it. But I promise I won’t enter!
