Last night I got this text from my sister: Her: I just read your post about revenge! Were you talking about me? Why didn’t you just talk to me?? Me: What? No! I wasn’t talking about you. Why would you think that??? Her: Um… I don’t know. Just making sure! And then I woke up …

Some of you saw a post for Day 4 of my giveaway today for a $100 gift card from Tide. Unfortunately due to circumstances beyond my control it had to be taken down. Nothing wrong and it will re-appear later… just not sure when. If you left a comment already to enter that contest, it …
