I hate to admit that it's been a rough month for me. I'm out of my regular routine. Little things here and there, DH sick, kids sick, chaos with the kids starting two new schools. Just life in general. It's been getting me a bit down and I haven't put in the blog time I like to.
I have spent a few minutes each day entering blog contests though. Not the most productive way to spend the few minutes, but it makes me smile.

With all the things that haven't been perfect lately, Karma decided that I needed a little help...
This is what arrived in the mail the other day. Two T-Mobile cell phones thanks to a contest at Tech Savvy Mama. A Blackberry Pearl and a Nokia 5310 Music Phone. I entered it thanks to my friend, Nyssa, and couldn't believe that I actually won! If you have kids that have cell phones or you are thinking of giving cell phones, be sure to check out T-Mobile's Family Allowance plan. It's a slick service that allows you some controls on what they are using their phone for and when.
To top it off, I also won a Laurie Berkner CD from Mommy Goggles and Snacktrition nuts and fruits from One Book Two Book.
Maybe things are looking up. Thanks Karma!
Update - I just received an email this morning (9/3/08) that I won a set of Matchmaster Soccer games from Mommy Daddy Blog!
Congratulations on the fun wins, and I hope your days start looking up soon!
Wow! You are rockin and rollin!
Oh you are so lucky on those phones, I was trying to win those :)
Congrats!
Great job on your winnings. Karma is the best thing! Espcially when its on your side
Wow! I never enter contests but you've inspired me to do it! Who doesn't love some stuff?
Congratulations! I hope your luck rubs off on me, too! :)
Congrats on that. How I wish I'm as lucky as you.
Enjoy. ;)
Wow, I generally shy away from contests because I'm trying to get started on The Compact and simple living, and I fear their psychological effect. (Making me covet more stuff.)
But alot of the stuff you've named is things that I need to replace *before* I go on the Compact! (Cell phone is just about dead, the on/off button is dicey.)
Plus all those wins seem to have uplifted your spirits a bit as a bonus! You've made me think twice!
The law of Mantra seems to be on your way.Keep rocking the cyberworld with your blogs.Cheers!
