We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give
It’s Monday! We all hate Monday! Well, I hate Monday!
But today? Today?! I love Monday. Just this once. Today at 8am sharp I became a real, official employee of my company! And effective tomorrow I will have health insurance! And as soon as my company purchased laptop arrives I get to work from the office really close to my 
house and save tons of money on gas!
Obviously, I am going to need a laptop messenger bag. Maybe like this one, isn’t it simply magnificent?
So, I am making a living again. But as the title says…I want to make a life. So I am going to have to give…
For you my wonderful and supportive friends, you who have been here for me through thick and thin, I want to giveaway a little something. How about $75 to spend at any CSN store? Sounds good right? I love CSN stores. I will have get some pictures of the awesome ceiling fan I got from there. And my cookie jar…..I digress so back to the giveaway.

Oh wow they have too much to choose from! I’d love one of those flower greenhouses, but for edibles. I’ve been looking for a magazine rack for my bedroom and saw they had many to choose from. Then there’s the workout section! I’ve been wanting a kettlebell… And a rowing machine! But I’d need to win a BIG prize for that one… LOL!
Great giveaway – I’m thinking we need a fresh set of sheets this Spring and I have my heart set on one of the Dwell Studio’s designs carried by CSN.
Oh… and 12 “!” was my count!
I would get this blanket:

And you used twelve exclamation marks! (It seemed like more, probably because most of them were in the first paragraph or two!) Can you tell I really, really want to win?
