Welcome to the Blog Bash 2011 Blog Hop! I am very excited! There are tons, and tons of prizes to be won at this big bash. :) If you are wondering why the date on top of the blog says June 27th. I have to post it like that, to "Sticky" the post to the top of my blog. Thats the only way to do it in blogger. The contest does run from June 22-26th. I just wanted to make sure, that no one was confused lol. ;) I tend to confuse people a lot. ;)

I have a $100 iTunes gift card up for grabs, to one  lucky reader! This contest is open to USA Only. I was going to open it world wide, but the back of the card says for, USA accounts only. So sorry about that! So it is USA participants only. 





I love iTunes, you can buy so much there. I have an ISP with so much bandwidth per month that I can use, so I cant use this. I dont want to go over my bandwidth for the month.  I want someone who can use it, to have it. :) 

So my loss, is your gain!

Country Bob's is offering A Country Bobs Gift Pack, and Cookbook to our Lucky Winner.

Lastly I have two Rayovac RNT3AAA-B Roughneck 200 Lumen Metal Flashlights with Batteries and Holsters. I love these flashlights. They take four AAA Batteries. They shine very bright, and they are small, and compact. 

Recently our power went out, and this flashlight worked like a charm. It has a pulsating light in it also. I thought that was pretty neat!

Entertaining the kids during summer break




Guest post written by Caty Michaels

I think that everyone can agree that this summer is already quite a scorcher. But just try and explain that to my kids who I can barely get to come indoors at the end of the day. They just want to stay outside and play all the time, no matter how hot it is. But I guess that they're just taking advantage of being out of school in the meantime.

So I've been trying to find ways to cool them down if they insist on staying outside. I was online getting some ideas the other day when I saw the website http://www.internetserviceboston.com/ and changed over our internet service to it.

I went out and bought a kiddie pool and I think that I ended up sitting in it more than my kids did. It just might be an excellent way to keep an eye on my kids this summer while cooling off myself. My husband thought it was so funny when he got home and saw me sitting in the middle of the kiddie pool by myself reading a book.

I love shopping at Sears!




I love shopping at Sears! You can get just about, anything and everything you want there. From computers, to small and large appliances. The people at Sears, are always so friendly and helpful. Each time I go there, I am always asked, at least two or three times if I need help. When I do need help, they are quick to answer my questions. If they dont know, they always find someone who can help.

One of my favorite items at Sears, are the Craftsman tools. Everyone has someone in their family, that has a person who loves tools. In my family, there is a diesel mechanic, who swears by Craftsman tools. In fact, I know several mechanics, and all I have seen them have tool wise, is Craftsman products. 

So, if you are looking for that last minute Fathers Day Gift, head on over to Sears. You can find just about anything you need for that special Father in your life! 

Hello friends! I could use your help, please!

Girls125x125


I belong to a great place called CrowdTap. You can earn money, just by participating in polls, and surveys. While you are there, please check it out and sign up under me, by clicking HERE.

I am trying to get more points. For every person who gives THIS video a thumbs up, I get points. If you could please help me out, I would appreciate it!

If you have something that needs voted for, please put it in the comment section, and I will return the favor. :)

Thanks!

StoPain Review and Giveaway


I have had cronic pain, for years. I have tried, just about any spray, cream, rub, and ointment there is. I think I have found a miracle in StoPain! I was sent a bottle of StoPain Cold Spray Pain reliever, to do a review on. Let me tell you, this is a miracle in a bottle. The only thing I dislike about it, is the smell. Once I got past the eucalyptus smell, I was in heaven.

My knees always hurt, in the rainy season. My knees were hurting bad one day, and I tried it. It almost INSTANTLY, numbed the pain in my knees. Its in a no drip spray bottle, so I didnt even have to touch it! It is also no stain, so you dont have to worry about it staining your clothing.

You can use this just about anywhere on your body, that you have pain. Except for the head of course. You dont want to get any of this in your eyes. It is for arthritis, muscle aches, and back pain. I have arthritis in my back and knees, so this will be put to good use. I have already used about half of the bottle in the months time, that I have started using it.



BUY IT:

You can click HERE, to see where you can buy StoPain in your area. If you want to read more, you can go to the StoPain Website.

You can visit StoPain on Twitter and on Facebook.

OMG! I am freaking out! My blog is messed up!





EDIT: I Temporarily fixed it. I guess I know a little of what I am doing lol. I just dont have the same header I had. My rss feed button in the middle is missing. If you hover over, where it was, it will still click lol. 




I cant get ahold of my blog designer until the 17th! She is in the middle of moving, and wont have internet access until the 17th. I managed to salvage my CONTACT ME button, but my header is gone, and so is the button for the current giveaways. I am temp hosting the contact me button on photobucket. I hope they dont boot me off for too much bandwidth! I dont know what to do!


All of the blogs she has been designing are like this! I know its a quick fix, but I dont know how to do it. I dont have the header downloaded anywhere. :( I have a huge blog hop giveaway event, that starts on the 16th,  and my blog looks half naked! I am freaking out!


You can still click under the current giveaways, to be taken to the giveaways I have open now. It still works, but there is that odd pic there. It still takes you to the same place. I hope to have a temp fix soon.

(CLOSED)The Orange Owl Soap Review and Giveaway





I found this adorable little shop called The Orange Owl. I love Owls, so I knew I had to do a review. They have a variety of items. They have soaps, lip balms, bath salt, and body butters. I got to try two soaps and a lip balm. 


First up, I got to try Aunt Z's Lemon Bar soap. This bar is a good size, and smells so good. Its got a good lemony scent. It has really good lather. I like it a lot! I like that the bars are nice and hard. That makes them last longer. Here is a description from the website. 
A tribute to an aunt who makes the best lemon bars in the world. It is a deliciously fresh bar infused with pure lemon essential oil, giving it that extra punch!




Second up, is the Neembu Paani Bar Soap. I chose this, because of its unusual name. . I loved the smell. Lemon is one of my favorite scents, in the spring and summer, to use in bath products. Here is a description from the website
East meets West! 

A tribute to two cultures via a combination of Indian lemonade (called Neembu Paani and made with a hint of cardamom) and lemon poppy seed muffins. The blend of zesty lemon scents with the spicy zing of cardamom, makes this an exceptional combination!





Lastly, we have Citrus splash Sweet Orange lip balm. I can taste mainly, Grapefruit, then orange, then a hint of lemon! I was the kind of kid that would eat lip balm, when I was little! LOL. I dont do it anymore though. :) It goes on very smooth, and is not greasy at all. It is perfect for summer time. 


WIN IT!
