Feeling brilliant right now!

So Jessica won my giveaway, but then couldn't email me. She figured out just how big a moron I truly am. No she's too nice to actually call me one, or even think that but it's true! Apparently when I put my email into my settings there was a typo! Oops fail on my part! I typed lovinaFRAMboy instead of lovinafarmboy. This explains why I haven't responded if anyone has tried to email me. It should be fixed now, but I make no guarantees. :)


In other news... Daisy is rollin around like crazy and we can watch her move now! Have I mentioned how great it feels to be able to call her by name?! Anyway enjoy your weekends.

And the Winner is...

OK... I am not talented enough to figure out how to show the random number generator in my blog. :(  I also can't figure out how to comment on about half the blogs I've visited today!  What's the deal with that?!

Back to what I was trying to say.... And the winner is...Jessica Renee at You are my Color
Now I'll be off shopping for her 2 adorable pups this weekend.  Jessica please email me your address and anything specific I need to know about your pooches.  I already have a few great ideas based on some of your posts. :)

Thanks to everyone for participating, I've enjoyed getting a chance to check out some new blogs!

It's Wednesday

I woke up hoping it was Friday and wasn't thrilled when I was conscious enough to realize it was only Wednesday.  On the bright side... Summer school is half way over!  Ten more school days until I get to sleep in!  Daisy is also becoming more and more active.  That or I can just feel every movement more.  I love that I can call her by name finally!!  Hope y'all are having a great week... don't forget to comment for the giveaway.

200th Post Giveaway and a BIG announcement

We went to to doctor yesterday.... and finally have a big reveal!
It's a Girl!
We went to Babies-R-Us afterward and did a little registering. :)  This is miss Daisy Ann's bedding.  (Picture from babiesrus.com)  We couldn't be more excited.  We are just so glad to know!

Now on to the giveaway.  I am going to do a doggy good basket for the randomly chosen winner.  I haven't gotten these things yet, because I plan to do a slightly personalized prize.  For example your rottweiler might have different toys than my shih tzu.  So enter to win and then I'll make a basket tailor made for your pup.  Also I will be making a donation to the Humane Society here in Joplin, as they are working so hard to join lost pets with their owners after the tornado.

1.  Follow me (1 entry)
2.  Post about the giveaway (1 entry)

Please comment seperately for each of these so I can use the random generator thingamajig.  I've never tried that, so we'll see how it goes. :)

Edited to add:  Sorry guys... guess you may be interested in an ending time.  I will end the giveaway on Friday June 17th.

TGIF!!

It's been a CRAZY week!!

1. End of regular school.  Our last day of school was Wednesday.  It was supposed to be Tuesday, but last week we missed a day for flooding.  It was crazy with awards assemblies and packing up and changing rooms to prepare for summer school.  Oh yea... and we had to blow up a billion little arm floaties for the little swimmers we'll have in summer school.

2. Beginning of summer school.  We started Thursday... yes that is the very next day... no break for this tired teacher!  Yesterday was an absolute zoo!  I'm doing Title for summer school, which basically means I don't have my own class of kids.  Since I don't have a class... I get pulled away to do anything that needs done urgently.  It was bus number information yesterday.  I spent most of the day in the office answering phones so the poor secretaries could try to figure out every single child's bus number.  The bus company failed to mention different bus routes due to summer school.  You'd think that would come up at some point before the day of... but hey what do I know.

3. FB is out of town.  Well actually at this moment he should be arriving back here.  He took his FFA kids to state convention or something.  Have I mentioned this is his 4th trip in a month??  So glad he's home for good this afternoon!

4.  Ducks.  When FB's out of town I'm in charge of all things living.  I'm not sure that is a job I should really be trusted with!  I don't really have to do much with them.  Just keep them fed and watered, but at 6:15 when you're trying to get yourself out the door it seems like a LOT.

5.  Fun stuff.  I'll end this crazy post with the fun part of the week.  Apparently I acted pathetic enough about FB leaving me all alone... so my mom suggested we go to a movie.  It was a nice celebration for the end of the school year.  My mom and a sweet coworker took me out on a "date."  We ate at the best Mexican place, then went to see Something Borrowed.  It wasn't until we left the theater and my coworker mentioned that it had been a book that it all clicked!  I'm slow sometimes... as if y'all hadn't figured that out.

My parents also had the weekly dinner.  So I got to see my chunky monkey nephew and one of my sweet neices.  Dad grilled chicken on a beer can and other yummy stuff.  It was a good distraction for me, and I never had to cook for myself.  That really is the best part. :)

Have a great weekend!!  Giveaway starts next week!!
