Can someone PLEASE tell me where that phrase came from???  I had never heard it before a year ago…we were on vacation with a large group of people…and a Texan friend couldn’t stop saying it.  Now I hear it all the time, but…I digress.

You would much rather I just spit it out, right?  Who won the Bloggy Carnival? 

Congratulations Jamie from SavinginStyle!  Remember…..I asked for your motivation tips and suggestions.  Jamie wrote:

I stare at my son. I know, it sounds strange. I stare at him while he’s sleeping – before I get up in the mornings – when I go to sleep and he’s already sleeping – I stare at him and remember why I get up and do the things I do each day. I need that moment of peace and sanity – my husband is in the military and has been away for over a year now, so as strange as it is…staring at my little three year old angel gives me all the calming force in the world.

Congrats again!  I will wait to hear from Jamie to determine where I will be getting her $45 gift-card-of-her-choice! !Later this week, I will post a ‘motivation wrap up’ with the best tips, quotes and of course get-me-going-songs that so many of you shared!

Thank you so much for all of the entries…all 400 of you.  I’ve written back to many of you, but am still working on finishing the list. Please know I am thrilled you stopped by and hope you will be back again!
