GRR to Blogger

As many people trying to click on links, and many Bloggers using Google Blogger platform knows, it's been giving us fits over the past few days, going down constantly, being only in read-mode.  For that, I'm sorry...we bloggers could do nothing but watch our blogs from the outside in.  Every now and in, a blogger would get a rare chance to add one post, then down again.  But alas, YAYS, it appears it's up and fixed and double YAYS!  I just wanted to drop in and explain why no new posts at all could be seen.  Some people were telling me in person or emails that they thought my site was messing up and I probably should look into it and see if I could fix it, lol (that was nice of them tho, letting me know just in case it was something else), Was it down? yes and no...not the sites themselves, just the platform our sites are on.  All 'appears' to be well now....fingers crossed.

Guest posts for a few days...send prayers for Misty!

Hello followers, readers, and fans of Misty's Thoughts Too.  I'm Debbie from Thrifty and Frugal by Debbie, and wanted to let everyone know that Misty is feeling a bit under the weather.  I'll let her get into the explanation of it all when she gets back to feeling up to posting, but for a few days, I'll stop by periodically over the next week to drop a line, share a savings tip, and such with you all.

But right now, I'd like to ask you all to send out a silent prayer for Misty, that she feels well again soon, and can join you all back on her site, sharing the great stuff that she loves to share with you all.  I'm sure once she is able, she'll pop back on and let everyone know how she's doing, but for now, send your best and prayers to be with her.

Allure Free Stuff / Giveaways for May!


My favorite time of the month is here! It's time for Allure Free Stuff! The first 500 Allure readers to sign up at noon EDT on the dates below will get one free.

May 3: Pureology ColourStylist Illuminating Curl. Waves get a major blast of moisture with this defining gel that calms frizz, even in humidity, and adds a pretty sheen to strands.

May 4: Mary Kay Lash Love Mascara. Long and short flexible bristles allow this brush to coat even the teeniest corner lashes—and the formula allows you to layer without any clumping.

May 5: LaLicious Sugar Reef Soufflé Moisturizing Body Scrub. The batter-like texture and gentle sugar cane granules leave skin soft; it has a subtle coconut-and-almond scent.

May 6: Ocean Potion Suncare Natural Faces SPF 50. The mineral sunscreen packs a high SPF, but that doesn't mean it's white and goopy—it absorbs quickly and feels surprisingly light.

May 9: St. Tropez Everyday Gradual Tan Mousse. A self-tanning foam for the body that slowly darkens skin to give an authentic-looking tan.

Click here each day to enter. No Purchase Necessary. Good luck beauties :)
