New York, New York

It’s always been my dream to go to New York, especially during the holidays. DH said we could go next year if I wanted to but I think Baby Bug will still be too young to travel so far. I stress when we take her on a 20 minute flight to Maui! LOL!

For now I’ll have to live vicariously through my renter, New York Nitty-Gritty. Otilius’s Photoblog is ranked #1 at Blog Explosion, and I can see why. The great thing about it is you get to see New York through the eyes of someone who’s actually lived there for the last 13 years. The photos are interesting, artistic, thought-provoking, and sometimes very moving. When they say “A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words”, I think they were talking about New York Nitty-Gritty.

Check it out by clicking on his thumbnail in the sidebar. You won’t regret it!

** Sticky Post ~ Please scroll down for newer entries. **

Kelly at Pass The Torch is raising money for St. Jude Medical Research Hospital. Please stop by her site and help her out. It won’t cost you a penny, just a comment.

Her corporate sponsor, Empowering Youth, Inc. will donate $1 for each comment she receives up to $500. How great is that? You’re able to leave 1 comment per day. If you tell her Local Girl sent you, I may be able to win a Hidden Treasure of Assets Board Game!

Please help support this very worthy cause!

And on a totally different note:

  • The Carnival of Family Life is coming back here in January and I need your help. We always receive a wonderful amount of submissions but only a few participants actually visit each other and leave comments. Any suggestions on how I can increase interaction amongst the bloggers?
  • I forgot to mention that Flirting with Forty will be going to Have a Great Rest of Your Day. Jenn won the random drawing! Congratulations! I think you’ll really enjoy this book.

Where am I going to put all this stuff? BTW, do you see that ironing board she asked Santa for? Maybe now I can catch up with my laundry! LOL!
I hope Santa brought you everything your heart desired! Have a Merry Christmas!
