The Friday Rundown

Posted by admin in and Tuesday's parade, breakdown, Friday shakedown, winners on 02 6th, 2009 | no comments

Is it Friday? Really? It’s here? I get to maybe sleep in just a little tomorrow? Two mornings of not rushing around getting lunches packed, breakfasts made, kids dressed and off to school on time?

Yep, “everybody’s working for the weekend” (remember that tune?), and for a SAHM, it’s the same deal. I am loving my weekends.

Moving on…

I have an agenda today. Let’s break it down:

First and foremost, do you know about this?

If you don’t know about it yet, you should now. You see, the entire blogosphere and even beyond the blogosphere is coming together to support the family of darling Tuesday Whitt who went to heaven one week ago today.

Read all the details about the virtual parade here. Join in tomorrow by hanging with your loved ones, taking some photos and posting them on your blog. No blog? No worries. Email any photos to me and they will be posted here along with mine on MWOB.

Mr. Linky will be up as of tomorrow and will stay that way through Monday. We hope to see Mr. Linky grow as more and more folks post their pictures of their participation in “wagie rides” in memory of Tuesday.

Earlier in the week a commenter wrote about the virtual parade saying she hoped she wasn’t too late but she wanted in on the plan. I emailed her saying “No worries, it’s all cool, Mr. Linky will be up on Saturday through Monday and you can join in when you want.”

But instead of writing Mr. Linky, I wrote Mr. Kinky. And I pressed send before proofreading.

Boy did I laugh about that one after I realized my mistake.

After I wrote her back saying a big “Oops!” and hoping she wouldn’t be offended, she wrote back saying let her know when the Mr. Kinky parade was ’cause that sounded fun too.

Oh my. Should I go there? Nope. Not today.

A little levity in the middle of a heavy topic. Nothing wrong there right?

Moving on…

Second, I have me some winners to announce. I have FOUR lucky “LoYo!” card game winners whose lives will be changed after today, and I have ONE Rock Star Mom who will get this killer necklace.

Because I can’t quite embrace the Random.org method and because I have so much randomness flying around my home on a daily basis, this was my random method this time:

Every commenter was assigned a number.

All numbers were written on colored circles. The Love Fairy mixed ‘em all up, scrambled them around face down on our yes, bamboo floors.

She then worked her magic fairy powers and chose FOUR lucky numbers.

So the random winners are:

Under the Influence, Em In Pursuit, Tena at My Therapy and one true blue MWOB, Karen. Email me your addresses people so I can ship this family fun game out to you!!

Now for the Rockstar Mom necklace, the winner is:

And that was The Hotfessional. I love this hot lady. Not sure she wants this necklace so Ree let me know so I can either mail it to you or pick another winner. You just never know what floats people’s boats so if it’s not your thing, lemme know.

Wow.

I’m done.

Now I’m really ready for the weekend.

Go hug your kids and I’ll see you tomorrow.

about us

Moms without Blogs is basically me, Lee, who wonders every single day how in the hell am I going to find the time to write a blog post? I\'m a mom to three kids (ages 9, 7, and 4) who are insanely gorgeous, insanely active, insanely demanding, insanely life-affirming and who have almost driven me insane. In good and bad ways. I work as a producer in reality television, I fold all kinds of laundry, I am picky about how my dishwasher is loaded, I yell entirely too much at my kids, I like desert skies and how my skin feels after a dip in the ocean, I married my soul mate even though I don\'t believe in soul mates really, I believe that laughing \'til it hurts is where it\'s at, I\'m a sucker for putting little treats into the bowls of our three dogs each night, I love driving my 1974 orange convertible Karmann Ghia, I write when inspiration strikes, and summer is my season. And if you\'re a mom without a blog, literally or figuratively, then I\'d probably like to hang out with you. Thanks for reading.
