Happy Blogiversary!

Just a quick shout out to a couple wonderful bloggers celebrating the anniversary of their blogs – a blogiversary!

While just being able to meet and get to know them is reason enough to celebrate, these wonderful ladies are also sharing the presents with their readers – old friends and new.

Lynn at Trash to Treasure Art  has a wonderful creative giveaway going on that you have until Nov 18th to enter.

Tracie at Fishtail Cottage has gone giddy over her anniversary and is holding giveaways all month long.

Let me assure you, once you stop in at either of these blogs for a visit you will stay for more than the giveaways.

Still having my computer woes here, but have decided to concentrate on the homefront and getting the furnace operational before I can get the new computer set up.

However, on my party and link up announcement blog I have found a few more events to share.

If you know of more parties and special days coming up, please email me so I can feature them.

An Apology, An Update and A Bit of News

I very much wish to apologize for my limited and stereotyped description of people who live in gated communities. I am sorry that I put a negative spin on their lifestyle. I do not categorize or judge people based on where they live,  what they drive or the price tags on their clothing.
I was speaking out of frustration at not being able to get around as freely as I  prefer.
 Some experts would say I have blocked my abundance thinking and my chakras and aura are giving off  low energy (negative) vibrations.
I only meant that it is not often that I have the opportunity to visit those communities and I would have loved to see if their sales were interesting. Homes that do not do sales regularly often have a larger selection.  I also enjoy viewing beautiful houses and landscaped yards.

We had a storm blow through here and the robin’s nest in the lower tree was dislodged.  There are no signs of the family. The robins in the upper nest continue to thrive and feather.

Now for the NEWS:

This is the start of  
Visit Stacie  and  Kelly  and meet Heather, the blog guru behind the event.

I am sure I will have a lot more to say about this event all week long.
Join in so we can have a great conversation and help each other.
