Life + Lemons + Balloons= Happy Day

I am so happy to have 15 followers! YAY! Thanks for stopping by my humble little blog. When I started this blog, I really just started it to quit bugging Lauren. I would e-mail her like everysingleday with a million links to stuff I wanted. I figure that could get annoying, and I wanted somewhere to collect my wants so my husband could buy them all for me I could be organized. I must say it really helps because I can refer to my own thoughts, pictures, etc.

I’ve received 2 blog awards. One was from Christy, and to my complete shock, excitement, and amazement I received another one today from the one and only Centsational Girl! Doesn’t her name sound like she could be a superhero? I think she sort of is because she’s just that good. Her blog always makes me happy. But I digress. CG listed me under blogs she shows her gratitude towards/The Lemonade Award. I seriously wanted to call like everyone I know about this, but I figured they’d think I was a bit off my rocker, which is kind of true sometimes. Still, it’s exciting!

 

Here’s more about the lemonade award via Monica from Craftynest: The Lemonade Award is for bloggers who show great “attitude and gratitude.”

I try to do both of those. Yeah, my blog is basically about  me and all the things I so selfishly want, but I try to be thrifty (like Centsational Girl, Rhoda, and Thrifty Decor Chick) and I try to share what (little) I  know with people. It’s all about inspiring others to tackle their own wants. I know I wouldn’t be able to do any of my projects without the blogs I read/stalk on a regular (if not obsessive) basis. So, I am honored to have CG view my blog/me as having a great attitude and gratitude.

And this day has been so happy, but the icing on the cake was this balloon given to me at Sonic when I stopped by for a Jr. Candy Sundae during my lunch hour. The guy was super friendly, and who doesn’t love a friendly person handing you ice cream AND a cheery yellow balloon? Thanks Sonic! The balloon is happily flying in my office.
