Get Schooled Saturday #6

Hello, hello

How is everyone doing this evening?

All well, I hope. 

It is the weekend and I am so glad you stopped by for 

I have had a stressful week and I haven't even been doing anything!

Blogelina is trying to get me all set up over at Wordpress with my own domain and everything (how grown up and official?) 

My new address will be 

www.too-much-time.com

I am so worried about losing all the wonderful and supportive people who have been following me! I try to do most of this bloggy design and even html stuff myself, but this was too big and too scary for me to undertake. I would have like lost every post I ever wrote and made blogger explode or something, so I figured this is a job best kept to the professionals.

So, if I somehow disappear into cyberspace-come looking for me...kay?

Onto the most viewed links from last week's party! If I featured you do please
grab a fun little button:)
I have 36 or something like that for you to choose from.



I have to admit, this was one of my faves of every link party I visitied!

These free terrariums from

AND, the most viewed link last week was this amazing room reveal from(again!)
Creatively Living
This is awesome and it was even on a strict budget!

Alright all you hooligans, link it up baby!

Anything you feel like sharing is fair game. 

A recipe, a mishap, a photo, a project or craft, an important piece of advice that I should know about about switching to Wordpress...oh wait you can just e-mail me that last one-heehee

You don't even have to follow me, or display my button, or even like me for that matter. But if you do (like me), you can follow if you're feelin it, and if you still do (like me) you could spread the love and plop this little button on your blog somewhere:)

Hope you all have a nice weekend! I am off to stay at The Ritz Carlton in Vail for the weekend (don't be jealous:) We are more the Motel 6 type, but we have some visitors in town and will be throwin down like high rollers for once. 

So check ya Monday!

Get Schooled Saturday #6 and E-Book Fling

I am IN LOVE with my Kindle.

Seriously I kiss that lightweight piece of literary love at least every other day. I tell my husband once a week that it was the best present ever (he needs that positive reinforcement). But it really was my favorite present ever. The only part I hate is paying for the books:( Boo I was a library girl-the biggest borrower on the block, but what to do now that I am a complete e-reader addict?

I just discovered this little jem over the holidays and I am lending maniac now! It is a way to lend and borrow books from other people who are members of the site. When you lend you accumulate points and when you borrow you use your points. Easy as clicking, "buy" for that new book on amazon but free.

Now, not every book you have or want is eligible. For my Kindle I can check on my Amazing Kindle account and it tells me which books can be borrowed and lent. You sink up the books you want and the ones you own and then when someone wants to borrow or lend it you get an e-mail with a link to click and the exchange happens immediately!.

If you are even a teensy tiny bit interested please click here and check it out. They are going to be giving away a Kindle Fire and the person who gets the most clicks will win...and man alive I want that Kindle Fire. I am a cheapo and no I-Pad or Kindle Fire is in my purchasing future. 

Now, on to the show!

Here are the top viewed links from last week's party!
