We’re up to our 9th giveaway!  I hope everyone is enjoying their prize winnings.  We have had some fantastic items to give away.

But first…

Congratulations to the winner of our most recent After Holiday Giveaway!

We heard some great ideas for ways we can all relax and de-stress our lives.  Our 8th Giveaway Winner is “The Mom Jen” who  relaxes by slipping under the covers with a magazine and some chocolate.  mmmmmm, chocolate.  Jen will be receiving Crystal Wine Charms, compliments of Juli from www.moonstarj3.etsy.com and www.moonstarj3.blogspot.com

Ok, now to the next giveaway…

Our next giveaway is for:  A Gift Certificate for a FREE Personalized Birthday CD, compliments of Victoria from www.kidspersonalizedmusic.net.  ($25 Value). 

What a cool gift for a child.  Kids love to hear or read their names in books and CDs.  What a great idea and a great thing to try to win for any child’s upcoming birthday.

My thought of the day:  The recent election has been a whirlwind.  So many emotions from so many people.  Some are negative and some are positive, but thankfully I have heard mostly positive.  This is the first election where I was thrilled with the presidential selection.  I actually watched some of Inauguration day for the first time ever.  I remember thinking how exhausted Michele and Obama must be after that very long day of ceremonies and balls.  For some reason I just feel so differently with this president.  He seems more human to me.  I have high hopes for Obama and look forward to see how he fixes the mess our country is in.

This leads to my next question

Did you feel any strong emotions (either negative or positive) on election day or on Inauguration day?  I would love to hear about it.
