100

so when my follower number got to be about 95
i start thinking what will i do when it gets to 100?

first off, I never in a million years
thought when i began this blog less than a year ago
that i would have any followers other than my girlfriend & my family
so it has been amazing that out in blogland there are others
who actually enjoy my ramblings, writing and musings. :)
so this saturday my blog follower number hit 100-
and although i thought of a giveaway, well i haven't thought of what i would/could give...

so for now at least...
i sat the other day and wrote on a wrinkled envelope

Wow, maybe if we all sat down and thought of 100 things we love we'd stop complaining! What a great idea and list. I'm going to make mine--wonder if I can come up with 100 positives? LOL

Shawn said...

Giveaways take too much work..I have entered several, only won once, and find it to be exhausting!
