So I’ve been racking this old brain trying to figure out HOW do all of you add so many neat things to your blog? All the side pictures and links and such I have totally been stumped…UNTIL NOW! I’m one of these people who is scared to death to click a button for fear I’ll lose everything, so I just click what I KNOW but I wanted to leave a link to my giveaway and continue writing on my blog and had to take a chance to figure out how to do this…and I did…oh man I am so doing the happy dance!!! Now I’m feeling a bit brave so I might add more things….just have to figure out what everything is first. Oh by the way, what do you think of the red colour? I’m sure it’s nothing I’d want the whole year but it works for Christmas don’t you think?
I’m so ready to decorate for the holidays, it’s just that cleaning part before the holidays I’m not too thrilled about, but I bought a new mop I hope will help my miniature stature reach the top parts of my log walls so I can remove the enormous amounts of dust that have settled in so nicely. Never thought about dust settling in there but then who takes time to study their walls???? I’m too busy for that!! However, one night whilst sitting on the sofa I looked over and couldn’t help but notice…ugh!
I’m also ready for snow…
Warm lights that guide the way through the snowy forrest…
And little frozen kitties waiting to come inside and warm themselves by a roaring fire…
Oh I can’t wait!! Anything has to be better then this grey, rainy, foggy, icy, dirty autumn we are having! I’m a pretty positive person but everyone has their limits and my patience with this weather is running thin…
I’d love to extend the warmest welcome for all my new followers and blog friends who have made their way in here from various spots in the world! Yes, I got a lot of you here with my giveaway..but hey, I’m not above dangling a little bribe in exchange for new friends…hahahahaha…
This is me, your friendly, happy, American hostess- just so you have a face to go with the name…I think that is nice to know what your friends look like…don’t you?
So I’ve been checking out other giveaways on other blogs and I know I mentioned I’m going to add some other surprises along with my ornament and seeing what everyone else is giving away I’m feeling like my prize won’t be fantastic like everyone else’s but hey, quality over quantity is my motto…and besides, this is my first giveaway, I’m learning…and yes my friends, we can teach this old dog some new tricks- just give her time!!! ;-)) hahahaha…
Until next time my friends…..

Wow - you've added lots of stuff to your blog. And now it's a cheerful red with lots of Christmas pics. Love the header especially...
Very cheerful - hope it will help us all get through this grey weather!
I love the red for Christmas, it helps cheer up the gloom I've had it with rain now.
Have a great day.
