Wholly Guacamole winner!

It is highly appropriate that I am picking the winner of the Wholly Guacamole giveaway as I eat my lunch (peanut butter sandwich, popcorn, and 100 calorie pack of Wholly Guacamole, straight from the little bag into my mouth, mmmm.)

The grand prize winner is number 109, Sara D! I can’t say I’m surprised, as she entered every day. That girl was determined to win, and she did! Yay Sara!

And now for our runner up, who will get a Wholly Guacamole prize pack, including coupons and fun goodies. Yay Kat, a girl after my own heart!

Sara and Kat, contact me for more information about your prizes!

Do me a favor.

Don’t ever order from Soap.com or their sister site, Diapers.com. They are a bunch of idiots.

I ordered from Diapers.com several times when the boys were younger. They sent me a coupon code to order from their new site, Soap.com. So I ordered some stuff, and as usual, opted to have it shipped to my office.

They “held” my order because of fraudulent activity at my address (they led me to believe it was my work address) and wanted a copy of my utility bill. No thank you. I cancelled the order.

They tried to lure me back with a $25 credit, so I reordered, this time using my home address.

Guess what? They’re “holding” my order again, and now they want my home utility bill.

In my ten plus years of ordering online, I have never had this come up. NEVER. Sure, they have friendly customer service reps, but all they do is spout the same line over and over and over again. “I do apologize, but…”

NO BUT. Just send me what I ordered. Legitimately.

ARGH!

Random observation from the weekend

The boys have been somewhat difficult lately. For one, they’re mimicking each other constantly. Which can be cute if they’re doing something safe and good, but incredibly frustrating when they’re doing something they shouldn’t.

Cute:

(spreading out their towels and laying down on them after bathtime at my mom’s)

Frustrating:

(leaning over some gross black fountain water, after I asked them not to.)

Sigh. And I’m guessing it’s only going to get more fun, the closer they get to three. Sigh.

But you know what I love?

This:

(don’t worry, I was stopped at a stop sign, no one was around to be irritated by me stopping to take a picture of my sleeping kids.)

We went to a 90th birthday party today for my Great Aunt Mary.

You know you’re in South Louisiana when there’s a taxidermied alligator (and bobcat and deer) in the dining room.

(And a moose in the living room.)

Tomorrow’s the last day to enter my Wholly Guacamole giveaway…go enter!

My Linus bear, such a sweet smile!

(He was smiling so big because he stood in front of the fan while wet. THAT’S FUNNY, PEOPLE!)

Two and a half, times three

This is kind of what having three two and a half year olds is like.

All doing their own thing, going their own way.
