Sponsor Giveaways : Lettergirl & Transparent Touches

I bought myself a novel to enjoy at my own leisure instead of borrowing it from the library and having a deadline as to when to return it.

I'm taking an online class; learning to use the Bind It All I purchased and have never used. Hooray for me!

I got a pedicure. It had been about 4 months, and it was awesome!

i redecorated my room, just the way i wanted to. now i love it looots. :)

I love to read, and I've been taking time each night before bed to read even if only one chapter.

I allowed my husband to withdraw money from his stock-trading account and buy me a MacBook for my birthday! For us this is a big-ticket birthday item, but I needed a laptop and NO MORE PCs for me, I'm tired of their crazy hair-pulling antics. So YAY!

I have registered for your class. I download everything on my hard drive and listen to it when I go to my childrens gymnastic competition & trainning. This is my alone time, my reflection time. Your class has brought back many memories and has made me reflect on where I am today and where I wan't to go from now. How I would like things to be in the futur. Very eye opening & chalanging. Soemetimes sad, sometimes happy but all good in the long run. So thanks!

I am reading your blog from the beach, where I ran away to yesterday. I left daddy in charge of 3 girls, age 5 and under. I need time to recharge so I will be good for them again. And I sure would LOVE those address labels :-)

I took the day off and went shopping for some new clothes!

I am going to a seminar for some continuing ed and to see a college friend and hope to get some shopping in before the seminar!

took myself for a little fall shopping- lovely fall weather- browsing at my own leisure, and new boots! score!

I bought some Amy Butler fabric to spruce up my living room. That means I get to sew for me too.

I'm taking your Yesterday and Today class--a treat just for me! It also requires me to learn Photoshop--just for me! Thanks.

I went on a scrapbookweekend with friends!! It was sooooo much fun.

I bought a scented candle for my night table. I light it every night so things smell nice while I read for 2 hours.

Now that my kids are all grown and moved out of the house - I am starting to think more about my needs or wants. I have changed my diet and exercise routine so I can become healthier, started to take classes in scrapbooking and photography and on Sundays I unplug so I can rest, relax and read more. Trying to find a balance and enjoy life more. Thanks

I have taken the time to actually paint my nails :) i love, love, love Lettergirl! thanks for the chance to win!

Something for myself-I guess the most recent thing was quitting my job! I was very unhappy and things were going badly and even though I felt a little guilty, I knew I needed to get out of there. So I did. And, I feel so much better and so much happier!

I don't normally do stuff "just" for me even though I know I really need to, but last night I came home from work and made it a point to put on my sweats and do NOTHING! I didn't even answer the phone, let alone pick up or anything else. I even told my husband he was on his own for finding his own dinner. :)

the one thing i have done for myself lately... is i bought myself a canon 50d body. i had canon's rebel xt for 5 years and it was time for me to upgrade. i am so loving the camera and your yesterday & today class. thank you for the giveaway opportunity.
