Giveaways to Start off the Challenge

I'm having giveaways for the first week of December on my blog SnarkyLady.com. I've found brand new, never been opened, still in the packages, toys. They've got to go.

I'm hoping by giving these things away I'll make some little boy or girls Christmas just a little brig… Continue

Gabrielle, I am a high school teacher and my experience is that there are very few 17 year old girls out there that are as wise and mature as you. I wish I had the insight you have when I was your age --shoot, when I was 27! It takes most women so l…

I only gave a small gift today as I spent most of it sequestered in my home cleaning. I actually woke up in a panic that I had forgotten to give yesterday! Then I remembered that I did actually give a bottle of Prosecco to my friends as a thank you…

Well, I lost track of where I was in round two, which is to say, I wasn't doing a very good job of self-care! I recently had a reading with Mbali. I was very frazzled going into it. Had a lot going on in several directions. Then the house phone sta…
