$25 Amazon/PP-WW-Try Your Luck March Hop Event-Ends 3/17

Sunday, March 1, 2015



Hi again--time to thank Planet Weidknecht and LeahSay's Views for putting this hop together!! And don't forget to check out the other participating blogs-each blog is offering a prize worth at least $25-you can find the clickable list after the Rafflecopter below.



I can't believe it is March 1st already-it seems like it was just January 1st. Such is the life of a bookkeeper-even a semi retired one-especially with the winter we have been having--I don't remember having to reschedule as many times as I have this year. Every time I THINK I have everything and every one completed-----and then on 4/1 I start all over again!! Is it any wonder my brain is beginning to feel overwhelmed and my cat is beginning to feel ignored? She is NOT being ignored--she only thinks she is!!


This hop ends on St Patrick's Day--so what is at the other side of that rainbow? A pot of gold of course. Well-I can't give a pot of gold but I will be giving one lucky winner either a $25 Amazon GC or $25 PayPal (their choice) This contest is open world wide. Rafflecopter will be choosing the winner--I will email that winner who will have to reply to my email with their choice of prize and the correct email to send it to--easy right? Well so is my Rafflecopter--so go on and enter--may the luck of the Irish be with you!!

Rough start to our year so far. Lots of illnesses in the family, especially my grandsons... and then one of them had to get their tonsils out. I hope things start to get better from here!

stacey dempsey said...

So far my year is going really well. I have a pretty good routine going so it isnt too hectic. I am hoping it stays this way the rest of the year

Anonymous said...

It's okay. It could be better. I think I just need the warmer weather to come and I will be less annoyed.

katieoscarlet said...

No, nothing is under control here. Our anxiety levels are up due to a broken pipe outside the house then the furnace going out. Money we don't have to install a new one. New Year not going well so far.

Maria Malaveci said...

It is going great Looking forward to the warmer weather though! It has been freezing

My year is actually not going that well. My mom fell and has really hurt her back. She is slowly getting better, but it has been pretty scary for that last 4 or 5 weeks.

It's Me De said...

So far, my year has been a roller coaster ride. A lot of ups and downs!

Carol M said...

I'm not having a good year. My husband has been in the hospital and my cat is dying of kidney failure. I babysit my two-year old grandson almost full time which keeps me busy and I also take care of my ninety-two year old mother. Reading is the only thing that helps me relax.

Amy C. said...

This year has been going well. My family is healthy and we're very blessed.

Hmm...I'm facing 2 eye surgeries, one this month, one in April, and then carpal tunnel surgery in May. Plus given we got six inches of snow last night, I'd say it's not going too great so far, lol

Sonya Cocherell said...

I honestly don't know where my year has went. It has flown by and I haven't gotten everything that I need to accomplished. It's pitiful!

Sherry Compton said...

It's flying by. So much I thought I'd have done, and I can't believe it's already March.

Year is going really well so far. It will get crazy in June when we move 9 hours away!

CindyWindy2003 said...

This year is crazy, the harsh winter has ruined a lot of activities and pushed things back, we thought by now we'd have a house, packed, etc.

Amy said...

My year was hectic at first then it got better. And now it's back to being crazy. Now that we are out of money both vehicles need to be fixed to run. Ugh! No relaxing time ever!

susan1215 said...

Yea, it's been crazy, we moved for my husbands new job and now we are trying to get our house ready to sell. It's difficult to do when you are 3 hours away.

I have had a pretty crappy year so far. My daughters friends Mom got killed in a horrific hit and run accident just down the road from the store where I work. Not even a month later the store burned down. I have worked there for years and now I had to sign up for unemployment. I am hoping that this year gets better for everyone.

This year has been crazy, we have had way too many projects going, including re-doing several rooms in the house which are all at different stages of completion, while I really just want to be spending the time on my garden!

Starbreeze said...

I feel that 2015 is going as well as can possibly be expected. It is pretty uneventful but I think that is probably a good thing.

Daniel M said...

not good, car is constantly in the shop, just one thing after another sucking up all my money - godan@comcast.net

Unknown said...

Let's just say, I've had better! Getting a divorce, found out I have to have heart surgery, my truck is giving me problems and costing me large amounts of money. But, on a side note, I've got some wonderful friends that I feel very blessed to have standing by me!

Unknown said...

All I can say is I'm taking it one day at a time; otherwise, it would be too over-whelming.

Emily C. said...

It's going by super quickly! I am currently in school so the beginning of the year was also the start of the 2nd semester. Now all my assignments are coming up!

Unknown said...

My year isn't going to bad. It can be hard to manage time but other than that it is pretty smooth.

Karen said...

This year is going by fast, i am glad the snow is almost gone and it's just about spring. I look forward to what will happen for the rest.

Lissa Crane said...

So far it hasn't been very good! My mother passed away last month ago and we had tons of damage due to the ice & snow storms we had all winter! But I have hope that the rest of the year will go well! After all, maybe we just got all the bad over with for the rest of the year.
