I Would Walk Five Hundred Miles and I Would Walk Five Hundred More

Today is my 500th post.

::blink, blink::

Holy shit, that's a lot.

Summer is kicking my ass, so I'm not going to to a gushy-gushy here's all the stuff I've learned from doing this post. I'll save that for when I reach my two-year anniversary in August. Maybe. Did I mention summer is kicking my ass?

So, how about a give away instead?

Anyone fancy a give away?


I've got two thrifted... cups? Is that a good descriptive word for them? Tea cups? Beverage holders that certainly are not mugs? How's that?

Anyway, I've got two of those, a sweet little zippered pouch and three button magnets.


Rules... rules... rules... oh please, I've never been one to care for rules all that much. Leave a comment (hey, that's a pretty good rule)... I'll do a drawing on Monday morning. Oh! And you have to be willing to email me with your postal address. Yeah, that's enough rules.

Did I mention summer is kicking my ass? It's wiping the floor with it too.

Oh...fun gifts! That should make the summer butt-kicking more easy to bear. I swear, if it's not the heat, it's what's going on in the ole' "personal" life. F. Makes me want to jump in the refrigerator for a bit...or the freezer...or Alaska.

Cute, Cute Items and I would love to have them all! Congrats on your anniversary. Sorry summer is kicking your ass. Hey, by the way, would you like to have some bearded iris to stick in where the zinnias didn't come up? I have some bee-utiful purple ones that I have to thin. I could mail em to you, if ya want.

I'm totally commenting because that's a CUUUUUUTE sippy pouch. And those cups ain't half bad either. 500 posts though - that's AWESOME!!!!!!!

Amy said...

I love that you have the same anchor button that I have! Or had. It may have burnt up in my housefire a few years ago.

anyway, five hundred posts is pretty impressive. And I've only read, like, three hundred of them!

Summer is kind of kicking my ass too.

Obviously I'm late on the drawing thing but I did want to say congrats on your 500th post. I still don't understand my laziness these days to post but when I do write I love it. You inspire me. The cups are of course gorgeous. Congrats again and here's to 500 more.

Love, love the pink fabric. I bought something like four yards of it when I saw it because I LOVE it. Think it's going to become a sundress for me. Not gonna share it with the girls!
