PeNNy RuG dOne..& PaYinG It FoRwArD 2011...

Good Afternoon my fellow bloggers..well day 4 of this rotten nasty cold/flu..holy cow is this a nasty one..Hubby started getting last night..although he doesn't have the cold part of it. I went to the pre-op yesterday and the doctor didn't like the way I sounded..so he postponed the surgery for get this..April 1st..so I have a 2 week reprieve..on the other hand my blood work and urinalysis came back great..so that was nice to hear..I am staying put this weekend..as I hear that what I have is spreading like wild fire..and I just hope I didn't give it to anyone yesterday..
I just finished up this fun spring penny rug last night..it is in my etsy shoppe as we speak..;)

okay the photo above..I noticed this on Misi's blog originally and then on 5 other blogs..so I signed up and I am getting 5 little goodies in the mail..I can't wait..but the catch is...if you want to get prizes..you have to be willing to give 5 prizes away as well..so if this interests you..you must do the same..
the first 5 that sign up on my blog and agree to the same..I will need your address ( I will email you) so I can send you alittle goodie..hopefully this week..(I am hoping to stay motivated)..
This is how Misi put it..;)*Pay It Forward *
When something, usually good, happens to you, you turn around and do something good for someone else. Instead of paying something "back" you are paying it "forward" on to the next person.

Here's how it works....

The first five people who comment on this blog post will receive a handmade gift from me.

In return, you must FIRST write a blog post explaining Pay It Forward 2011. Then.... send out a handmade gift to the first 5 visitors who leave a comment on your post. Take your time...you don't need to send them all today or tomorrow. Any time in the next few months. No pressure. This is to be a joyful experience.

This is such a sweet way to connect with friends or meet new ones, by sharing things we create with our hearts.
oh ain't this the truth..my belly button is becoming pretty good friends with these 2 gals.;) lol..well almost..give me a few more years..
okay I am in full shock of how high the gas prices are becoming..they should have these signs everywhere..
remember that question I asked you a couple of days ago..Well Theanne guessed it right..the question was: what model went to NYC to start her modeling career in 1966?
it was Cheryl Tiegs..;)
well that is it for me..we are getting a bit of rain today..I am going to do some sewing..will post what I did when I get them done..going to work on another penny rug project..gotta figure out what I want to do....I hope you all have a wonderful day and the weather is treating you well..our camillia bush is just starting to bloom and our forysthia is in full bloom..other things are coming up out of the ground..by then end of march we will be planting our veggie garden..hope its better then last years..lots of green tomatoes..no red ones..have a good one everyone,..;>)

  1. Gina,

    I love the idea of the PIF. I've already signed up on Holli's or I'd sign up on yours. I love how 1 act will turn into 5 and then 25 and then 125 and then 625 and so on and so on. Love the exponentialness...is that a word of it all! LOL!

    And gotta say I love the gas price sign...ours is still right around $3.50 a gal for regular....oUCH!

  9. Gina...question for you. Seems that there is some serious confusion about the pay it forward. this is the first time I ever did any of this and now regretting doing it since it seems there is so much confusion. I seen where you took off your entry in a couple saying you could not sign up because you already signed up on another one.
    So what are the rules, where can we see them, Is everyone supposed to send a gift to the 5 who sign up on there blog and in return those same 5 will send me a gift?
    To me that is a swap not a pay it forward.

    OR do I send to my first 5 and the blogs I sign up for send a gift to me. Hopefully we can Clarify some of this.
