    $50 Giveaway August

    Hello, Little Peanuts! I hope you had a most excellent July. I had the best July. An amazing family reunion for The Husbands 70th birthday. Look at this post if you would like to see the pictures and the full rundown of the week-long festivities. It was AN AMAZING vacation!!  I miss them all so much! After the kids all left, Amazon had their Prime Days. Hummmm I may have (I SO did!) drowned my sorrows in ‘add to cart’ therapy. Oh MYGOOOOOOSH! All those $3.99, $8.99, and $56.99 added up to Wooooooo-Uh-Oh. So, I am going to TRY…. (Ohhhh if you could only hear the laugh track in my head!) not to buy anything on Amazon for the entire month of August. (I can’t even believe I could type that with a straight face!!) Y’all should be taking side bets for how long I last. I am THE WORST impulse buyer E-V-E-R!!  Gesh, I hope I last at least through the first week. Okay, now for the REAL reason you are here!! GIVEAWAY TIME!! This June Giveaway has the same exact spiel as last month and the month before and the month before that! The year before and well, you…

  • $50 Your Way Giveaway September 2022!

    Happy September Giveaway little Peanuts. Here is my monthly update. August was a pretty busy month. I finally got back to work in my garden. Let’s just say it’s a big dead piece of land and not really a garden. But, all weeds are pulled. Everything has been trimmed back. I dug up some of my lavender plants and planted them in different places. It worked wonderfully last year so I’m hoping for the same next spring. Only a small amount of touch-up left to do and this year is done. I also cleaned up my little roll-top desk. (Refresher, my Grandpa built this little roll-top desk for my Mom in 1939. My Mom used it, I used it, my sisters, and brothers used it. My daughter Selena and son Zachary used it. Then granddaughter Alice used it. I decided to try the fad I’ve seen on Instagram where people are stripping furniture with oven cleaner. I decided to try it on the underside of the little chair. I was in LOVE with the look!! In progress; I admit I was SCARED!! I am giddy with the way this turned out!!!  Even took the cigarette burn my Dad left on…

    Hello little Peanuts! I hope April was good to you. It’s time for May’s $50 Giveaway I finally got a good look at the ‘mystery animal’ it truly was a cat. A very LARGE and VERY MUCH in heat cat. That will teach me to wish for a good look at that animal, because NOW she wants to wallow under my bedroom window all the time. UGH!!! I dunno about you, but I think this cat looks evil. I hope that you have entered the $50  NOVICA Giveaway.  I personally think NOVICA has the most unique and interesting items. I love the fact that I can learn about the artist that created my items. Their stories are always so interesting. Now on to the real reason you are here, cause I am certain it wasn’t just an update on my mystery animal! (It’s okay, life on the mountain really is quite boring! BEAUTIFUL but boring). GIVEAWAY TIME I truly am thankful you stop by! Most of you everyday. As always I am blown away by your support and most of all your friendship!! My monthly $50 giveaway is my way of saying THANK YOU for being a follower! I really…

    Win $50 your way Ends 1/31

    Happy New Year little Peanuts! Giveaway Time! Wooooohooooo GOODBYE 2020!! I am racking my brain trying to come up with any kind of an update for my giveaway post. Man, 2020 really screwed things up, right?!? I didn’t travel, I didn’t do anything exciting. I use WAZE as my map app. THIS is how boring my entire year was!! I went 411 miles ALL YEAR!?!? No wonder I’m having such a hard time coming up with something to write! We didn’t even get our first snow until New Years Eve! I was starting to believe Mother Nature left Sandpoint Idaho, off the snow list! 2020…. just a screwy year all the way around. I can’t wait to see if Emmet’s (Thank you Tamra for naming him) carrot nose lasts all night. I am hoping my hat doesn’t disappear either. Good luck Emmet! My metal snowman was buried in 10” of snow at around noon. It hasn’t stopped snowing either.  You suppose we are getting our entire 86” in one storm!?!?  That is a lot of snow! ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Now for the real reason you are here!   GIVEAWAY TIME!!! I truly am thankful you stop by! Most of you every day.…
