It’s Monday! I don’t usually say such a thing accompanied with an exclamation point, but I promised something special today to celebrate this blog’s one year anniversary, so that most definitely deserves an exclamation point! Or two!! Three would be pushing it though.
Hey can we pause for a minute so I can show you some of my wrinkles? It’s just that I was taking some pictures of myself like a blogger is apt to do and I thought this captured them (the Wrinkles) real well. Hello eye! Hello mouth!
Anyway, where was I?
Well, let me just say I find it both awesome and weird that there are people (a lot of whom I haven’t bribed or even met in real life) who started reading my blog a year ago and are still reading it today. I mean you guys, I’m nutso in case you haven’t noticed! But bless your hearts these stat thingamajiggers show that people are still visiting, and some of you even leave comments. Gosh.
I guess the best way to celebrate all this craziness is to do a giveaway. Yesssssssssssss!
I thought long and hard about what to give and I think Target pretty much sums “me” up. Classically designed. Stylishly cheap. Red. Awesome. Wondrously in existence.
One lucky reader will win a $25 gift card to Target, probably my all time favorite store. I would live there for a brief part of my life if they let me, and by brief I mean a few years.
I know $25 is not an insane amount, but it’s enough to perhaps buy a pillow.
Like this one. I’ve been trying to convince myself that it would look good on my couch.
Or maybe some new sandals for summer.
Or diapers for the more practical minded.
Even $25 worth of gum!
Heck. It’s your world to do what you will. Maybe in your little world there’s a brand new lime green lamp suddenly sitting on your side table. Lime green!
Alrighty then.

Not so much unicorns, but the other things, sure. JJ watched him once while on lots of cold medicine and he had quite a great time with it. I already follow you on facebook.
I'm on the fence about the unicorns, but I totally believe in everything else. Happy anniversary!!
I like you on facebook and I'm a follower of this blog. Watching Bob Ross makes me believe that there really is creatures living in those paintings of his, right behind that pretty little bush.
Does watching Bob Ross make you believe in unicorns, rainbows, mountains, and gently moving streams? No, but it reminds me of the fairy tales of youth.

Though I fantasize about unicorns being real, it's not because of Bob Ross! He does make me believe in the healing power of his "happy little trees."

Bob Ross reminds me of naps on a warm spring day on green grass under a big shade tree with lots of singing birds!
Hm, maybe I'm living under a rock but I haven't the slightest clue who that is...so I'll have to say...nope!

This is not a popular answer, but Bob Ross has always kind of creeped me out. Same goes for Mr. Rogers, although I've lately kind of comes to terms with that one...

I believe in the magic of Bob
