Welcome SITSas!

Today is my day as the featured blogger on SITS. Thanks for coming over and checking out my little neighborhood. It's quite comfy here, even though it is POURING as we speak. But, curl up, grab a cup of steaming chai tea and read about my silly life.

Other than the big feature today, I appreciate all your love with my randomness the other day. The first week of school is always really draining. There is so much going on and I never feel like I get it all done. Plus, this afternoon, I need to shop for Mom's birthday present and order a cake. There isn't much time to get it all done.

On the bright side, my mom is cooking dinner.

Having my mom live with me does have it's perks. It's like having a wife to come home to who already put dinner in the oven, ironed my pants, and swept the floor. She says this is her way of paying rent.

I have introduced her to Target, Bones, and Stephenie Meyer. Now, she hasn't actually picked up a Twilight book, but I am sure it isn't far away. I told her all about Edward and Bella and told her the entire story of the Host (which I finally read, and it rocks!) So, we're each getting something out of this arrangement.

Well, I thank you all for coming and leaving some love for this lil' ol' blogger! Come back soon!

Hi from a smalltown Brit' acting as a school secretary in Okieland. We are now in week 3 and my work is still nuts with long hours. Someone once told me being a school secretary was easy!

Enjoy your day in the sun :-)

I love your 'My Roots' bio. It's so nice to get to know a blogger before I read their goings on... And that's where I'm headed now... Happy SITS day... Trust me, you'll be overwhelmed!

YAY SISSY! Or should I say "Sitsy". I'm a dork I know, but you are the 3rd featured SITs girl from this week and I knew them all! Including myself, of course. So fun. I hope your comment love today cheers you on this rainy wednesday. We all love you, you are a pleasure to read, a pleasure to know, and I'm so glad you have a blog so we can keep up. Love you!

Rhea said...

Target, Bones and Stephanie Meyer?! Your mom should be in heaven and FOREVER in your debt. Well, I guess since she birthed you that won't work...but you get my point.

I love those three things. And LOST.

Congrats on your SITS day! Enjoy all the comment love. Your blog is beautifully designed, and I loved your funny posts. So nice to meet you!

My father lives with us. It isn't like coming home to a wife, unfortunately. lol

Lula! said...

FAME! I told everyone to spread mad love around here.

And I have a secret to share with you...shhhhhhh...email me when you have a chance (and I know you'll be super busy keeping track of your new fans today!) and I'll spill the beans.

Kally said...

Laura said...

I am going to get myself comfortable and read your adorable blog. Congrats on your big day!

I'm slightly nervous about the prospect of my mom one day living with me...

Marlo said...

Congratulations on being in the spotlight! You've got a new fan over here as I love your outlook on life and how much you enjoy reading and the kindness I've seen so far in your posts. Thank you for sharing your story with us and for joining SITS to give people like me a chance to read and if you dont mind - be a friend. :)

Ashley said...

Congratulations on your feature! Cute Blog!!!

Jen said...

Good for you! Enjoy your day. It is so much fun being the featured blogger.

JenEverAfter said...

I could not live with my mom. I love her, and I would love to have her cooking abilities, but she'd drive me up a wall! She constantly thinks the lil' one is dying of SOMETHING, I'm just not a good enough mother to take her to the doctor every day and find out what it is!!! Glad it's working for you, though!

Bob and Jenn Peacock said...

Congrats! I would love my mom to live with me!

Tinabean said...

Congrats on being Featured!!
Your blog is a lot of fun & I think that the Host rocked also!

Karin @ 6ByHisDesign said...

congrats on SITS - hope you had fun!

Keys to the Magic Travel said...

Yay! It's so fun to be the featured blogger. And I have my mom living with us too. It's wonderful to pretend to be a princess when she does all the laundry and ironing. And watches the kiddos so that my hubby and I can have a date night.

Jessica G. said...

Hey, I'm here from SITS!

And I just converted my mom to Stephenie Meyer, too! She's in the middle of Twilight. I think she might like The Host better, though.

Anonymous said...

I've read all of Twilight and The Host also. Loved them!
Enjoy your SITS day!

Jamie @ Bungalow Bee said...

I just bought the first two books of the Twilight series and let my twin read the first book on our vacation. Her husband shoved it in his backpack and the cover got all bent up at the corner *sniff*. I haven't read it yet but she's already finished with it so I'm going to steal it back and only let her borrow the second book if she promises not to let her husband touch it! :)

Congrats on being a featured blog on SITS!

Mayet said...

Jen - Balancing Beauty and Bedlam said...

Oh, it's 12:12 am (Thursday by my NC time) but I am still sneaking in on the comment love and say it's been so fun browsing. Anyone that Emily loves, must be amazing....and anyone who can read before sweeping up the dog hair, and share about it...I love already.

Lynda said...

Congrats on being SAUCY! I think having your mom around could be really nice. YOUR mom...lol...just kidding, Mom (just in case you're reading)

Frizzy said...

Wow! Look at you! I'm thrilled for you. Keep up the great work and blogs. We obviously love them.

Krazy Armstrong K's! said...

Congrats on your feature! Love SITS!
rain... rain... send some this way please!
Off to look around!

Hunny Bee said...

OMG you got a lot of comments!! Woo Hoo! I like it too when my mom comes to stay. It IS like having a wife to come home to. I never thought of it that way before, but you're right!

Hope school is going well for you. God bless!!

WheresMyAngels said...

I would so love to have my mom living with me! I used to only live 15 minutes from her and loved being able to go there for dinner every night. Now she is 3 hours away, which means fast food for my family. lol

Susie said...

Congrats on being featured. I know I am a couple days behind but I am just catching up on my reading from when I was featured on Tuesday on Blog Around the World. Whew!!! What week:-)
