Birthday Giveaway Extended to Monday!
Please feel free to laugh at me, I am! When I started my contest I listed the end date as Monday, September 26. Well, tomorrow (Saturday) is the 26, Monday is the 28th! Oppse – that’s what happens when you work on vaca!!!
To be completly fair I am going to go with Monday, Sept 28 as the end date (which was the orignal plan anyway!).
So, if you haven’t entered (or taken advantage of the extra entries), you still have time. Enter here!
Important Info about Children’s Tylenol Recall
This is like a Mommy nightmare. Tylenol is voluntarily recalling certain lots and batches of it’s Children’s liquid Tylenol manufactured between April, 2008 and June, 2008, for potential bacterial contamination.According to the Orlando Sentinel, ”The company said in a letter that no bacteria were found in the finished product, and that the likelihood of a serious medical event is remote.” Still after all the pet food recalls a few years ago, this freaks me out!
So, besure to check your bottles to make sure any product you have isn’t included in the recall list. For more information check the recall list and visit Tylenol’s website.
September is Gynecological Awareness Month
One of the keys to cancer prevention and detection is awareness, so when House Party announced the launch of its Healthy Laughs House Party I jumped at the opportunity to host.
First of all I love House Party , and if you are not familiar with it then check it out now. House Party teams with national companies to offer grassroots marketing campaigns. People from all over the U.S. apply to become hosts. Those selected are sent a party pack full of items for their guests from the company sponsoring the party. Past parties I have been involved in include the launch of NBC’s Lipstick Jungle, a Saturn party (I got to drive a brand new Saturn for a day) and the launch of TNT’s Leverage. (Fingers crossed, I really want to host the upcoming Shutterfly party!)
Tonight is my party – it is a bit later than everyone hosted the party nationally, but I couldn’t do it that night, so tonight’s our night! Since some of my friends come over monthly for a craft night, I have tied the two parties together. In addition to making our craft (pumpkin hair bows), we will also learn about the prevention and detection of cervical cancer. After my party, I will take all of the leftover materials to my Mom’s club meeting to keep passing along the good info.
Since I think passing along this information is so important, I have attached a couple of the borcures I recieved to this post. I also plan to save one set of info (and goodies) for the winner of my Birthday Giveaway!
So, take a moment to review the attached information. Maybe someday it can help you or someone you love.
Where is My Head Today?
Do ya ever have one of those days where you aren’t really sure how you managed to do the things you did because everything seemed to not go quite right? That has been me today!
Since today was my first Wednesday off in a LONG time… I decided to run some errands… As soon as I left the house, things seemed to fall apart.
