Giveaways, Hops & Meme’s… OH MY!


Happy Wednesday Everyone.
I want to let you all know about the current giveaways going on here:
Earrings from Blue Kat Designs (Ends Saturday 9pm)
And coming very soon:
There are a few more I have up my sleeve… I’ll keep those a surprise  ^_^
So…
Who wants to hop?
Meet new friends?
Visit new blogs?
I do!
If you are new here, leave me a comment so I can visit you too!
I am from Chicago-Land (IL).
Maybe it’s because I am from Chicago (well about 45 minutes west of Chicago) – but I don’t think there is anything all that interesting about Chicago. The ‘same ole-same-ole’…
Sears Tower. Stupidly re-named the Willis Tower.
The Great Chicago Fire… ya know, the cow that started the huge fire in 1871.

The Bears
The Blackhawks
THE CUBS (Sox SUCK!)Chicago_Cubs_ch68_large
Here in my town (Aurora) we have Walter Paytons (Bears) Roundhouse, but that’s no biggie.
The weather is miserably cold right now. This week we had single digits and the “real feel” was in the negitive 20’s-30’s YUK!
Anybody up for “wordless” Wednesday?
I’m not. I can’t keep my mouth shut, but ya’ll know that :)
Meet my Dad & Step-mom…
My Dad had foot surgery the day before this (last week). He was out shopping the very next day. In my Step-mom’s words, “you can’t hold a man down” – haha! Now today (a week later) they are in Disney. It was 23F when they called me today!!! Woo! That’s harsh!1211001324

    Thanks for joining the Global Blog Hop! I've only been to Chicago once and that was just to stop at the airport for a connecting flight! I'd love to go back for a visit though.
