Fast Facts Friday

It's only been a few short weeks since I last posted, but I feel like so much has been crammed into that time frame that it would be hard to post about it all in detail so I'm condensing into a "Fast Facts" style post.  Many other bloggers I follow use this format and I think it will be helpful for me this go around.
  1. My bad luck has continued.  My car was hit at work.  I picked it up yesterday from being repaired.  In the meantime I had been driving around a bright orange Dodge Dart with all the bells and whistles.  I will miss the gas mileage, the bluetooth, and satellite radio but it's nice to have my Edge back.

One Year

Dear Jayson,

One year ago today, at 7:23am to be exact, you came into our lives.   The bizarre thing about it is you fit so neatly into our lives it's like you've always been there, and yet with your arrival you turned our world upside down.  We wouldn't trade a second of it though.  You were the piece that was always missing.

Punchbowl Challenge



I can't believe I haven't written about this site before.  For the longest time I was a bluemountain.com, hallmark.com, and a 123greetings.com girl.  Then I met Punchbowl.com.  I love this site.  Well, I love it right now because their free e-card selection still rocks my socks.  You can send a card to anyone complete with personalized envelope and stamp.  It's a true virtual card experience.  And no, I'm not being compensated to write anything about them.  So what got me on the Punchbowl bandwagon this morning?  Well, I've been in a funk lately and I've decided that I'm going to challenge myself to send an e-card to one person once a week for the next 52 weeks using Punchbowl (that's a year for those of you having difficulty computing).  I figure in helping brighten someone's day, I'll help me feel a little less woe-is-me too.  Now before you go getting all concerned that I'm depressed, I'm not really.  I just need to turn my karma around.  I've had such bad luck lately, I need to take this bull by the horns.

Anyone else want to join me in my Punchbowl Challenge?  Just think of how many smiles we can create week to week.
