a one hundredth post giveaway!

my blog baby is growing up so quickly. she's already one hundred posts old. excuse me while i pat myself on the back for sticking with it this long. i often get really excited and motivated to work on a project, but if i hit a bump in the road i'll lose motivation and give up. hence the circumference of my waistline.

thank you for reading. your comments are so kind. they mean the world to me. truly. i wish you knew how excited your input makes me. the original intent of this blog was to act as a storage facility. a dump. a place for me to organize pictures, ideas and other things i'd like to get around to tackling eventually. but it turned into something else. slowly, this little spot in cyberspace turned into an escape. a respite. a place for me to write and share my ideas with you. you made the metamorphosis take place. i was perfectly content using the blog as a dump. but then you responded. and you fed me. you gave me ammunition and fueled me to keep going. i'm going to do just that. keep going.

but not without expressing my gratitude. i'm doing a giveaway. that's right, just like grown up bloggers. no, i don't have sponsors who give me their stuff to review and give to you. i'm giving you something because when you appreciate someone, it's okay to drop some cash to show your appreciation.

you all know i have a thing for target. i haven't tried to hide our love affair. in honor of my one hundredth post, i am offering one lucky reader a $20 gift card to target. here's what you need to do if you want in:

1) become a follower of the blog. it's easy. just click the 'follow' button and follow the directions. it shouldn't take you more than a minute.

2) leave a comment on this post about your favorite topics on my blog. what would you like me to talk about more? what would you like me to talk about less? how can i improve?

3) you have one week. i'll pick one lucky person at random on friday night (april 1st). i only have 33 followers right now, so your chances of winning are pretty good. but i'm not very good at math...

again, all my thanks. ya'll are dolls. gerty says so, too.
