It’s that time of year again… for the Ultimate Blog Party 2010, created by 5 Minutes for Mom.

Ultimate Blog Party 2010

So it’s time to party! The Ultimate Blog Party is a fun way to find new blogs and bloggers you haven’t discovered before. Last year’s Ultimate Blog Party 2009 was loads of fun. It’s always fun to get comments, and it’s even more fun when those comments end up being the beginning of a new friendship!

I’m Christina. I’m a 30-something mom, happily married, with one active little boy. TJ has Asperger Syndrome, and through his diagnosis, I realized that he and I are in the same boat. I also have Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I’m rather open about these things because I’d like to help dispel the stigma surrounding mental illness and other chronic illnesses. (Because I’m awesome despite my limitations. And I’m far less modest online… I’m awfully shy in person!) I’m glad you stopped by to meet me through the blog party. It’s pretty awesome how we get to meet new people through this. 🙂

Oh… and the PRIZES! Prizes make everything more fun! Here are the prizes I would like to win, in order or preference:

  • The GRAND PRIZE, a new Toshiba laptop.
  • US101 – One lucky winner will get this $450 Human Touch Foot and Calf Massager
  • US39 -Be My Guest certificate ($250 value) for one lucky winner, (2 night stay for a family of four) at any Hilton Garden Inn.
  • USC 60 – For one winner a $200 gift certificate for any Wall Slicks vinyl wall decal of your choice.
  • USC 13 – $100 gift certificate to Kay Jewelers 
  • US20 – $50.00 in jewelry from Cookie Lee
  • Cash or Paypal prizes like: USC35, USC39, US37
  • Target gift cards like: USC3, USC15, US32, US107, USC32
  • Amazon gift cards like: USC8, USC37, US112, US 73, US74, US87, US52, US88, USC36, US31, US55, USC40, USC44
  • US58 – A $50 online gift certificate redeemable at Costumes Inc.
  • US71 – A $50 Bear Bucks Card to Build A Bear Workshop.
  • USC 27 – A $50 gift card to The Recessionista Shop
  • US61 – Win a $25 e-gift certificate to Toys-R-Us
  • US12 –1 Month Subscription to Netflix.
  • US10 – Young Living Essential Oils Stress Away Roll-On

Phew! That’s a lot of prizes! And there are so many more available. If any of those sound pretty cool to you, why not go on over and join the Ultimate Blog Party yourself to get entered into the drawing?

And if that’s not enough, I’ve got my own gourmet food giveaway running until Saturday night. Make sure to enter! (Commenting on this post – or any other of my blog posts – gets you a bonus entry into the giveaway, so why not take a chance?)

I’ve also got an Eden Fantasys giveaway running. (Ooh la la!) But don’t click over to enter that one until the kids are in bed. It’s not exactly a family-friendly page.

Come back and see what’s new on my blog every day this week. Stick around to participate in the Dear Kid Saturday meme. What’s it about? Writing a letter to your kid(s) each week that you can save and give to them when they get old enough to appreciate. There’s a MckLinky each week for all participants to sign.

Happy blogging!

    1. Hi Saidah,

      I’m a very open and honest kinda gal. Sometimes my lack of a filter can get me into trouble with people, but most of the time others find my candor refreshing. Pleased to meet a kindred spirit!
