Update: This giveaway is now closed.  Congrats Jennifer on the win!!

Let’s start this Tuesday off with a fab find…

April 2014 391 copy

That, my friends, is the new double wall insulated, BPA Free, 12-oz, stemless tumbler from HKL Designs.  I’ll expect it to be my new best friend all summer long.  Start your day with coffee, cool off your afternoon with sweet tea and kick off the evening with a cocktail.  It’s perfect!  And don’t you just adore their chevron anchor monogram?!?!  Of course, the world is your oyster as far as designs go.  Even the littles will love them…  Minecraft and Frozen… two of our favorite things :-)

Let’s see… I have a few other things on my mind.  First, my heart goes out to all of those across Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia that have been terribly impacted by this awful storm.  It wasn’t nearly as bad as predicted here where were are.  I hope that the second round coming tonight goes by quickly and quietly.  John is terrified of storms after the tree grazed our house last spring.  He slept in our bed last night so between his jerking and jiving all night long and my ankle, it was pretty miserable but I’m considering us fortunate.

Speaking of my ankle, I had a good day yesterday.  It didn’t hurt all that much and I was at least able to get my laundry done.  I was feeling good about it until around bedtime when it started really aching again.  This morning I could barely walk when I got out of bed and had to skip a room mom meeting at the PCP’s school because I couldn’t stand up long enough to get ready.  Friday can’t come quick enough (my follow up appt).  It’s been two and a half weeks since I fell and a week sitting, icing and wearing the brace with no improvement.  I’m starting to think a fracture is a real possibility.  (That being said, I have a yummy lunch planned with a dear friend that is moving to Chicago in a month and I’m going to make it to that if I have to go in my pjs and crawl in the door of the restaurant.)

I’ve had so many of you reach out to tell me you are no longer getting my blog post in your inbox.  I have NO clue how to fix this.  If anyone out there knows, please share your insights with me.  My IT support (Honey) has been useless on the matter.  (Probably because he is now cooking, cleaning and doing laundry at night since I can’t get around.  He’s a good man.)

I should end on a good note.  Soooooooooo, without further ado, the winner of my Magical Miles: A Runner’s Guide to Walt Disney World book giveaway is Ashley Haymond!!!  Congrats girl and good luck at your races!!!!!!!!!

  1. Very sorry to hear your ankle injury is holding you back from fun things. Has anyone recommended a "knee walker" to you? (Google it) Your doctors can prescribe it or you can simply rent one from a medical devices place. It will really help you get around more easily than crutches or hobbling. It's like a scooter so the boys might be very envious of your new mode of transportation!

  2. Feeling your pain – hope you continue to be on the mend.

    I am a long time follower via email and am one of the ones who is no longer receiving your posts. Best as I understand it, it is due to Yahoo changing some platform. The good news is that Rhoda from Southern Hospitality seems to have found an answer – may be a temporary fix – but seems to work. SHE SAYS: "Some of you have been having problems getting my email subscriptions and I think I have it fixed now. Apparently some mail accounts changed some settings and wouldn’t let feeds go out with a personal email attached, so I changed it to my blog email address (which I have through my host service) and I hope all is well now."

    Hope this helps or at least guides Honey in the right direction!

  3. I am a follower. Love all the fantastic HKL designs. I too am thankful the weather was not worse last night. Praying the storms today go through quickly, and everyone stays safe. Praying you find answers in regard to the ankle on Friday!!

  4. Absolutely love your blog! I find it a morning ritual to drink my coffee and open your blog!

  5. Hope your ankle feels better. I do subscribe to your email updates, but I haven't received any since the middle of April. I thought it was just me. Hopefully Honey will get it fixed for us when he has time.

  6. I'm a follower of yours! Love your blog and I'm from Savannah too! Hope the ankle gets better quickly.

  7. I've been following you for some time now and love every minute :) Liked the HKL FB page. Shared an item on my page and let her know you sent me. Fingers crossed!!

  8. I'm another one not getting your emails anymore. :(
    I think it's a Feedburner issue because I'm not getting any blog emails from them anymore.
    BUT I have you saved as a favorite & check every afternoon! :)

  9. I'm not getting your blog either! I thought it was just my deal and that I was losing it.. Hope the ankle is better soon. It's so frustrating how long these things can take.

  10. Love, love, love your blog!
    Very sweet that you are doing a giveaway when YOU are the one that should be getting a pick-me-up!

    P.S. Random question after reading yesterday's basement update- what color do you prefer for painted stairs? The gray like your basement or the black like the ones leading upstairs? I need to choose the one that will show the least dirt.

  11. I follow HKL on Facebook and I've followed your blog for a couple of years, now. Always so enjoyable. Hope your foot is on the mend. No fun.

  12. Thanks, Amanda! Black it is for the stairs.
    I'll be saying an extra prayer for you,
    -Kandace

  13. I one 30-something that isn't on FB, BUT, I LOVE these tumblers and have had HKL do me up a few TOO CUTE items. She made me the most beautiful pink monogram decal for my crib for baby girl #3! She is the best!

  14. I love following your blog!! (And I'm loving the monogrammed anchor, too! Perfect for evening cruises on the boat.)
