Sharla from The Mom Nerd!
I'm sorry it took me forever to post this. I told Gaby I'd let her draw the name out of the Santa hat and she was bound and determined to NOT get up this morning! The one morning I don't want to sleep in, she does! Go figure.
Congratualtions Sharla. Please email me at iambarkingmad@gmail.com ASAP with your contact details so I can overnight your Target gift card! Happy Shopping!
Let's get right to the point shall we (before I go completely stark raving mad and pull all of my hair out because all of this packing and the mess and don't even get me started on the dust it's stirring up is going to make me completely CRAZY...hence the giveaway!) because time is of the essence!
Between now and 10PM on December 14th, 2009 you can enter for a chance to win a $300 Target gift card...just in time for Santa's Big Day!
I have been so richly blessed in so many ways. I think it took some really hard times (not that we're completely through the woods yet, but I think I stand a much better chance of surviving them today than I would have a year ago at this time) to make me realize how truly wealthy I am when it comes to things that can not be quantified or hold no real value in the material world. One of the things I've come to discover lately is that I have this absolute gift of joy that's been gifted to me. I'm stressed beyond belief over this short-notice move and all that comes with it, but all I need do is look around me at the smiles that grace my life and I am immediately filled with a sense of joy and gratefulness.
You must have a blog to enter. No ifs, ands or buts about it! Gotta have one.
Write a post about what brings you joy in your life. I don't care if it's warm puppy dog noses, pink kitten paws, snuggles in the morning with your kids, or enjoying a hot cup of coffee in the still, small, quiet of the breaking dawn. If it brings you any measure of joy, write about it and share that joy with us. Once your post is up, link back here in the MckLinky area so that we can all click over (linky love...tis the season!), and read about it. At the end of your post make sure you link back here to this post. Also, display the button below in your post too! Oh and don't forget to leave me a comment...I love comments!
That gets you an initial entry into the giveaway.
For further chances to win, you can do any or all of the following...
Tweet about the giveaway and be sure to link to this post in the body of the tweet and include @Barking_Mad in the tweet as well.
Display the button, below (I'll put the code up by 11PM tonight), on the sidebar of your blog...THIS WILL GET YOU TWO ADDITIONAL ENTRIES!
For a chance to get an additional possible SIX entries you'll need to do some sleuthing around the asylum. Answer the following six questions by digging through my archives and EMAIL the answers to me at iambarkingmad@gmail.com . For each correct answer you'll get another entry into the giveaway. DO NOT ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS IN THE COMMENTS! Any comments with the answers to the following questions will be DELETED!
1. What did I do that caused me to loose most of my eyelashes?
2. What are the names of our four cats?
3. I have certain "Mad Skillz"...what might those be?
4. What part of my body did I glue to what part of my automobile?
5. Gaby said something really naughty once upon a time and I got a video of it. What did she say?
6. What was the name of the lead singer in what band that I had a mad crush on and then found out he was actually kinda creepy in real life?
There you go! Easy as that. You have a chance for your name to go in the pot a total of 10 times.
THE FINE PRINT: Void where prohibited...which really is just my fancy way of saying that if I've had sex with you, you gave birth to me, if I gave birth to you, if you are a sibling (rivalrous or not), or in any, way, shape, or form related to me, nanny nanny boo boo, you can't enter the contest. Dear FCC, no one paid me or compensated me for this post, or the gift cards. They were self-provided!
