    To post on the side of your blog, go to design, then click on gadgets and go to text. You have to click the html on the right hand side of the box and then can copy and paste. You can move your gadgets around as you want, and add and remove. Pretty nifty!
    P.S. I love your list, might have to steal a couple to add to mine :~)

    Yay for more blogs to read! We haven't met, but Karen talks a lot about you, Erica, and I'm so glad she has you as a friend. I look forward to learning more about you through your writing. :)

    #35 goal: black dress shoes? Like pumps, oxford, dress boot? for pants or dresses? Clarks & Soffts? look nice, are long lasting & are comfortable too. Always clean, polish your shoes and you will extend their life by years! (and getreplacement heels at the Dent shoe repair place). Then you won't mind spending $85 for a pair of shoes that will last you (3-4) years. -signed, The Shoe Queen.
