Please Head Over to my New Home

12:52 AM Posted by Liz

I will no longer be posting here, at least for now, I am trying to post everything here, on my review blog, including personal posts, reviews, and giveaways. THANKS!!

Finally completed my transition!

3:49 PM Posted by Liz

I finally exported all of my blog posts from here, and sent them to my "Review" blog, and became self-hosted. So head over to my site, where I will be posting not only reviews and giveaways, but also including photos, stories, and anecdotes as well. Hopefully it will be a well-rounded mix! Thanks for reading, and please make sure to head over to: http://www.lizzydearslife.com!

To Slang or not to Slang, that is the Question.

10:06 AM Posted by Liz

First of all, I hope to not offend anyone by this post, but this topic is on my mind, and I want to get it out! And a little disclaimer here-I am a Christian, and I am a Pastor's wife, but I am not perfect. So, here goes:


I guess you could call me a troublemaker, or a bad apple, or even a black sheep. I just seem to have this knack for stirring up some sort of conflict, (mostly just within my family, not necessarily out in public) wherever I go.


Well, yesterday I got into a bit of a disagreement discussion with my Mother-in-Law over a choice word that I seem to utilize quite regularly in my vocabulary. The key word is "freaking" or "freakin" i.e. "Are you freakin' kidding?" or "I am freaking mad" etc. So you basically get the point, I'm not exactly dropping the f-bomb here, but I can understand how the word could be a little offensive to some. I am not a prude to words, I can take 'em as they come, of course I don't like to expose my kids to profanity, and I definitely don't want to hear any of them cursing like a sailor, but dangit, I enjoy my slang talk!


I have come to the conclusion that I must refrain from using my "slang" vocabulary in public, and keep my potty mouth for behind closed doors only. I'm just curious if I'm the only naughty one who talks like this? And by the way, the word "fart" is used loosely in my daily vocab (I am the Mom of 3 boys, for crying out loud)!

This is yet another shameless post to qualify myself for extra entries in a GPS giveaway. Sorry guys, I promise I will start having some "real" posts soon! But anyways, if you are also interested in this awesome giveaway that my buddy Andrea is having, then head over here, and enter for yourself!

Working on Winning a GPS

9:43 PM Posted by Liz

My husband and I are always arguing about directions, and finding places out of town. I think the answer to this problem, or at least a help a little! I have entered to win a Motorola GPS from Mom Central, and really hope to win! It would make an excellent Mother's Day Present.

Print and Prosper Giveaway from Kodak

11:01 PM Posted by Liz

I have been feverishly entering every Print and Prosper Kodak Printer giveaway I can find recently. Not only to win the printer, which looks awesome by the way, but to get a chance to go to Blogher this summer. I waited too late to find sponsors, and the tickets were sold out, yep, right out from underneath me. So out of the 25 winners of Kodak printers that are being given away on various blogs, there will be 5 winners picked to go to Blogher. Woot, I really wanna go!! So, if you too must enter the Kodak Printer giveaway, then head over here, and enter, but do so at your own risk, for I will be watching. ;-)
