It's a funny thing....

I thought that I would let ya'll know I have been contacted by Overstock.com to feature them in a blog post and add links to some of their products. After which I would be able to provide my readers with a 10% off coupon code. I find this funny and odd all at the same time. I am not a giveaway blog, I am not a "featured product" blog, nor am I a blog that reviews products. I blog about my life. My life that is ANYTHING but normal.

I was contacted by a PR person to do it. I was kinda like "well what's in it for me" because honestly I don't think Overstock has very good prices and have NEVER bought anything from them. I always find better deals at Amazon.com or ebay.com. This particular PR rep never said anything, so, I apologize to all my followers but that is not what this blog is about (not that it would be if I was compensated) but this blog is about life; about living life with a child that has a disability. Not about the next best sale at Overstock.com.

I don't know how she got ahold of me. I don't know if they google pages with so many hits or what. I obviously don't have thousands of followers publicly like some of the blogs I follow do. So I don't know why me but I am sorry, I can't bring myself to do it and whats 10% anyway? 

Hope Everyone is having a joyous Holiday Season, I myself can't wait to get the go ahead to head home, its almost been 2 full months since we have stepped foot in our own home!!!

Love,

  2. I know how she found you I think. She contacted me, but I live in NY and am not eligible. I bet she linked to yo from my page in search of someone else. It's the only thing that makes sense, since your blog isn't a review blog.

  3. Last night I read your blog! It brought me to tears, but also made me happy about the good parts! I just want to say how very strong your family is and how I look up to you for being as strong and committed to your little boy as you are!Most people wouldn't know what to do and its sad! It got me thinking and I was wondering if you minded me putting you on my "Proud Mommy" discussion board asking others to help support you and you're family and pray for your child! (: Let me know if its alright!
