An Apology to My Blog
Dear Little Bloggy,
I am sorry I have neglected you! I should have at least updated you with this week's winnings on Saturday, and there were some wins, but I have been otherwise occupied. You know I have another blog about cross stitch and that has been getting the bulk of my attention lately. I am truly sorry. I have also been trying to spend less time on the computer and more time stitching.
I still love you little bloggy. Some might call me ADD, but I like Barbara Sher's explanation better - I AM A SCANNER. I love many different things at different times. I can't help it! And, as I said, my current obsession is my cross stitch, and cross stitch blogs, and cross stich blogging . . .
If there is anyone out there besides me reading my blog, you may love "Refuse to Choose!: A Revolutionary Program for Doing Everything that You Love" by Barbara Sher. It explained a lot of things in my life to me.
I'll get back to you soon, I promise!

Hello Monday!
I'm starting the week off just right with a sick child at home and feeling pretty poorly myself.

I am still slacking in my sweeps entries, but amazingly still won a few items.
The rest came in the mail.

We Won!
I thought I'd have nothing to write about in our win column for this week, and then Garry got a call Thursday night. We won one of the first place prizes in the Publix/South Beach Living (Kraft)Try Something New sweepstakes! Yay! Kraft should be FEDEX-ing an affidavit for Garry to sign this week, and then they'll send the prize soon after.
And then Sat
urday, Valentine's Day, we won another prize. Grace won a Flip video camera from the Go-GURT promotion. They are giving away a camera an hour, and we must have tried at least seven times a day or more since the contest began in January. Persistence does pay off!
Now all of this leaves me wondering what - if anything - is going to happen this week? More prizes I hope! WINNING IS FUN!
I've started another blog that is devoted entirely to cross stitch. If you are interested in the subject click here. I just started the blog yesterday, so there won't be much content at first. I hope I'll have time to devote to all of the things I'm working on. I REALLY need to win a laptop so that I can use the Internet while I stretch out my back in bed. I've had a lot of pain lately - NOT FUN - I think I've been overdoing it sitting here on the computer . . .

Coraline in 3D!
This has to be one of the most AWESOMEST movies ever! The three of us went on Sunday, we had to drive north and west for about 1/2 hour, but it was TOTALLY worth it (even with the steep ticket price - no matinee break). WOW! If you do go see this film, see it in 3D! Cute, fun, intense in parts . . . perfect!
A little late this week posting the weekly wins for Team Messick, I usually do it on Saturday.
I've gotten instant win greedy.

We! Wubb! Wubbzy!
What is CUTE and FUN? The television show Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! weekdays at 1p.m. on Nick Jr.
If it happens to be your little one's nap time, a new DVD was just released Feb. 3rd - Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! - A Little Help From My Friends.
Grace and I
have been fans of the show since the beginning. We especially like the catchy new song they play each episode, we used to sing them on our way to school in the morning. Part of one of our favorites goes, "- it may be a hole or a tiny tear, but it's still a good pair of underwear . . ."All new shows Feb. 23-26!
You can find out more about Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! at nickjr.com and noggin.com, and have your child join the Wubb Club at wubbzy.com. You can buy the new DVD at this link at bn.com.
