Just Add Laughter

Well, people. It's time. I couldn't wait until Monday to start using my beautiful new blog!

So, if you're here, then you obviously want to read about my life. My life as a Pirate is slowing changing into one that revolves around my family. I'm not even spending as much time on the computer now. Isn't it CRAZY? HAHA. I blame it on Summer, and the fact that my kids are here ALL THE TIME. I wish I could have gotten Big Sis into that Girl Scout Camp.

Speaking of Girl Scouts, when school starts, I'll be heading a Brownie Troop, along with working. So if you follow me on MySpace, don't expect much from me in the way of messages or anything. If you have my email address at Gmail, please use it.

Otherwise, check out my new blog, Just Add Laughter. That's where you'll find me. And pics of the girls and reviews on books I've read and just basic updates on my life. What I love is that I can send pics from my cell phone straight to my blog, so I can even update when I'm not able to get to a computer!

So, I'm going to say farewell to A Pirate's Life for Me. I will probably link back to it every once in a while. And all my blog posts are staying put, forever archived in the Blogger directory. I've gotta say, it's been fun, but not as much fun as I'm about to have.

So, go check out my pretty new blog. The layout is from Leelou Blogs. I love it. It fits my outlook on life perfectly! See you there!!!

New Contest at SITS!

So, have you been reading The Secret is in the Sauce? Last week, that had that adorable purse for their giveaway. I didn't win, darn it.

But, this week, they're giving away a $100 gift card to Target! Hello??? I know what I could do with $100 at Target. I need new clothes! What could you do with it?

So, go over there, comment on their blog with the give away, then link back to their blog on your blog!

Oh, and if you win...buy me something! :)

Thursday..

So, I'm trying to come up with daily themes for my blogs, so even if I have nothing to write about, I have something to write about!

I've seen "Wordless Wednesdays" listed more than once. This is actually a great idea! Can someone explain a little more? A personal pic? Or can I add a funny or thought-provoking graphic that I've found on the internet?

Today's SITS Featured Blogger does a "Tirade Tuesdays" where she vents. I love that idea, but the idea of keeping notes throughout the week on what ticks me off just doesn't sound like me. If something ticks me off on Saturday, I'm going to write about it on Saturday. What other "Tuesday" themes should I consider?

What about the rest of the week? Ideas? Anyone? It would mainly be for the weekdays, but some ideas for the weekends would be much appreciated!

On another note, have you all read The Secret is in the Sauce? Awesome blog! They're doing 6 weeks of giveaways, and they're only on their 2nd week! Go read it! Also, Tip Junkie is doing 20 days of give aways. This weekend (they're extending it because of the holiday!) they're giving away a gift certificate to purchase a custom blog layout. Go check these blogs out!

One last thought....my girls come home today!!!! I'm so excited to see them! I've got the stuff I brought up yesterday unpacked, I just have to put it away. Once the girls get here, I'll put a DVD on in my room and work on my filing cabinet. That's going to be the biggest job for me!

Currently watching: Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest. Oh, how I love Johnny Depp! :)

Thinking...

I've been thinking of giving my Blog a major overhaul.

since I've been blogging more, I was thinking about changing the name, which means I have to change the web address.

I'll give a heads up when I do this, so don't worry...but I need to get creative. Threeundertwo, LVBelle, Kira, Tena...help! LOL Give me ideas!!!

Ok, now I'm going to close Blogger and turn on iTunes so I can get some work done here around the house! I also need to eat lunch because I'm hungry!!!

July??

Ok, where did the first six months go? Boy, does time fly!

So, today, I've unpacked another kitchen box and got stuff put away in the girls' bathroom. I still have their suitcases on my coffee table, which have clothes they didn't take to grandma's, so I need to put those away too. I'm still looking for the box with the hangers in it!

I woke up today at 10. Of course, I didn't go to bed until after 1:30, so it's not like I got a whole heck of a lot of sleep...8.5 hours, typical for me. Once the girls come home, I'll be getting up between 7 and 8am.

Honey went into work at 5am this morning, so he'll be home at 1:30. At 10, I got the text messages from Weather.com saying it was already 101 degrees outside! I know what some of you are thinking...if I'm waking at 10, and it's already 101 outside, HOW am I supposed to be doing my C25K workout? Umm...that's a good question! I don't have an answer.

Also, as you can see, I've spruced up my blog a bit. I was playing around with it last night. I've added some new blogs to my blog list. Two of note are The Secret is in the Sauce which is having some giveaways on their blog. Check it out. I know some of you who read my blog would be great on their featured blog list. Also check out Tip Junkie, who is also having giveaways every day for 20 days! Make sure you tell them I sent you!

So, take a look around. I've added some new stuff, switched some stuff around....let me know what you think! I have one question for Tena, though. How did you get your page all spiffy? Did you pay for a membership? How did you do that? Ok...that was three questions. Sorry.
