Happy Thursday!
Okay, I just got an e-mail about this, which reminded my poor old tired brain about this fabulous party, but I'm confused or tired or both. There's so many wonderful things here to do, and prizes??? So, I have to come back on the 9th to do anything? Aughhhhh... Well I can say you look absolutely FAB in your picture. I love it you look almost as good as these prizes ~snicker~ Awe Man, look at that laptop and that gorgeous jewelery! I gotta figure this out.
ReplyDeleteWow, I definitely need to nap the day the blog party starts! Phew, I am working on 4 1/2 hours of sleep here. You have a great blog!
ReplyDeleteI have bookmarked it so I can come back when my brain is awake, not just my body :-)

Hi, Colette. What a pretty name. I like the tagline to your blog; I have noticed that because I'm quiet there are people who will think I'm weak and try to take advantage of me. Boy are they in for a shock! Hope you're having a great time at the UBP! Have a wonderful weekend.
ReplyDeleteJust cruizing through some of the blogs at the party :)
ReplyDeleteGood luck!

Hi there. Sorry I'm late to your party. Still recovering from the whole virtual party. I have a huge heart for adoption (and DANCING!) too! We were in the middle of adopting a little boy from the Philippines when a surprise showed up in my womb. Our sweet Jordis. If we get to the point where we can safely and sanely handly another - we will definitely be adopting. Thanks for stopping by "Tales from the Motherhood and Confessions of a Childhood Actress." I recently posted a video of my kids dancing that you should see. We are working on it - let's just say that.
