I’m Back/Giveaway!!!

Hey everyone!

I apologize for being gone for so long. I left out of state for two weeks, and then started getting ready to leave the state again for another trip while working full time. I addition to that, I’ve been staying out where I’ve been working for pretty much the entire week, and I don’t have internet access out there. But I’m getting to work on making a blogging schedule and my work schedule is also slowing down a little bit, so *fingers crossed* I should be here more regularly from now on.

Now, I’ve been promising a giveaway for a long time now because I hit 20 subscribers (by the way, now we’re at 30!!!), but until now I hadn’t been able to find the time to get everything for it. But I FINALLY managed to get everything together!

The theme of this giveaway is getting to know a little bit more about me! Here’s what I’m going to give to the lucky winner:

I’m giving away this notepad – and the reason I chose this one is because, as many of you know, I love to write poetry and songs! And when I started writing, I always used a yellow spiral bound notebook like this one. Whenever I filled one, I started a new one!

I’m also giving away my favorite candy, Trolli’s gummy worms! I love sour candy, and these are ones that I can eat with my current diet restrictions (more on that in another post ;).

I couldn’t do a giveaway of things related to me without including some music! This is one of my favorite CD’s ever.

Included in this fun package is a pack of my favorite pens. When I worked as a paralegal, my boss asked me to run to the store for him. He wanted a very specific type of pen: Pilot G-2 07. He actually didn’t know that was the kind of pen he wanted, he just knew that the kind of pen he had was his favorite kind ever, and that’s what he wanted me to get. But I managed to locate the desired brand and model at the nearby office max, and when I brought them back he gave me two of them. And I’ve loved them ever since!

Aaaaand last but not least, I’ve gotten into painting lately. Whoever wins this giveaway will be getting an original painting from me! (By the way, if you all are interested in a post about my painting, let me know! If people are interested enough I’ll share about it sometime in the near future.)

Are y’all excited now? Here’s how to enter!!!

1. Leave a comment! One restriction on this – do NOT comment as ‘anonymous’. You don’t have to comment with your real name. In fact, you can comment as ‘yellow walrus with green stripes’ if you want. But when I draw names I DON’T want to be dealing with 5 different anonymouses. In addition, if half of you comment as anonymous, and ‘anonymous’ wins the giveaway, when I post who won, everyone’s going to be expecting a package! If you comment as anonymous, I will NOT enter you into the giveaway. Commenting gets you two entries because I LOVE hearing from you all!!!
2. Answer some questions! I’ll list some questions about myself for you to guess. If you guess 1-3 right, you get one entry. 4-6 is two, 7-9 is three, and 10-12 is a whopping four entries!
3. Share about the giveaway! Get everyone else in on the fun! Post a link on your social media or blog and let me know, and I’ll give you an extra entry for every platform you share it on. Being as I don’t have any social media though, if you post there you’ll have to send me a screenshot through the contact form or send me a link to where you shared so that I can see.

Alright, here’s some questions about me! See how many you can get!!!

1. What’s my favorite season?
2. What’s my favorite meal?
3. Introvert tendencies or extrovert tendencies?
4. Fancy dressing or sweatpants?
5. What’s my favorite music genre?
6. Do I use acrylics, oil paints, or watercolors?
7. Do I prefer performing, or do I shy away from the spotlight?
8. Am I a pen person or pencil person?
9. Ice cubes in my water or no?
10. What’s one of my greatest pet peeves? (More than one answer!)
11. Sweet or savory?
12. How many states have I been to? (Not including layovers between flights)

When you comment, if you leave me a list of questions about you so I can join in on the guessing fun, I’ll see how many of them I can get right!

Giveaway closes in 2 weeks, so on November 7th. I’ll post the answers to the questions at the same time! Make sure you get in on the fun!!!
