Does this happen to you?

You know how it is said that the average person loses over 100 strands of hair each day? Well I think it is true in my case. How in the world do I shed like I do yet still have a full head of thick, healthy hair? I don't get it. Also is it just me or do you get all sneezy and sick feeling when you are in a room of sick people? Do you take on symptoms even if you are not really sick? I must be paranoid or something! I was in the same space as someone who was coughing and I really felt a cough coming on. Now today of course I am perfectly fine :) Crazy me....

Halo SleepSack Swaddle Giveaway

**Contest Closed**
Winner is #17 Shelly- Congratulations!

I received this sweet little 2-in-1 wearable blanket/swaddle blanket from a mom blog gift that came to me in the mail. I don't have a little newborn to use it on so I decided it would be great to give it away to someone who can use it. It's cream in color and is made of a fleece material in newborn size. It's perfect for the cooler weather that is coming (if it has not already gotten to your neck of the woods). I loved using a swaddle blanket with William when he was teeny tiny.

Wordless Wednesday

I can't ever do a WW without a brief description. I took this last week from my car at the stop light. I wish it was better quality. The sky that day was like something out of a movie. Beautifully scary :)

I LOVE being a housewife and stay-at-home mom. It's my dream job although the pay sucks ;) Love it.
Promptness makes me very happy. Lateness troubles me greatly.
I don't like and never will like boiled peanuts. Even the smell makes me ill.
I love coupon shopping. I can't pass up a great deal!
I would love to lose 2 pounds.
I can't control my laughter when I need to the most. It has gotten really bad.
I love watching television with the husband but do not like when he has the remote (he's a compulsive channel flipper)
I have multiple junky corners in my home. My husband can tell you all about them.
I am very loyal. I get hurt easily when people don't show me the same.
Cold weather puts me in a great mood.
I don't feel my age at all.
I love foot and neck massages.
I don't like wearing socks even though I love crazy socks.
I don't ever write "LOL". It is grossly overused.
I am a snackoholic. Yep, I am a junk food junkie but I tend to be decadent on the weekends and I work it off during the week.
I have been watching One Life to Live and General Hospital for over 30 years.
I am writing this post to avoid cleaning my desk! haha :)

Look what came in the mail for William

His favorite...CARMEX!! Thank you to the Carmex company for the great gift. He is one very content toddler :)

Have you ever heard of CSN Stores? I was introduced to them about two months ago and was shocked at just how much stuff they sell! I'm talking everything from a bookcase headboard to office furniture and baby accessories. They have 200+ sites and they keep adding to their inventory daily. I actually ordered my computer ink cartridges from there and it was delivered so quickly. I am not the biggest online shopper but I really had a great experience with CSN. I found the pricing to be very competitive and the selection is astonishing. You can see a listing of the product categories that are sure to make you dizzy!
