Birthday Give-a-Way Winner & Scrapbook Time!

So sorry for the delay!  Blogger was down for a bit and then I actually forgot to write up the post of who won my Birthday Give-A-Way.  Drumroll please.....

#11 - TJ!!!!! 

Please drop me an email with your address and I will get your prize out to you!

I am gearing up for a major scrapbook-a-thon and I'm so excited!  I've got a little birthday money in my pocket and with a few friends we are going to the Scrapbook Expo in Sommerset NJ.  Get this, when we signed up, we thought it was an evening thing.... nope.... ALLLLLLLLL day!  I've got the kids covered and I'll be attempting to catch up on my family scrapbooks.  I'm keeping my fingures crossed that I'll finish at least all of 2008.

Peace be with you,

How do you win?  Well, it's pretty easy and only requires two things:

1. You MUST be a follower (GFC) of Domestic Deadline

Earth Day Blog Hop

And so Stashbusting ends... I'm still working on a huge project with tons of my scraps and I'm planning to keep going and not buying craft supplies until at least Mother's Day, because the craft area is still not in real shape yet!

But the most exciting thing is today is Earth Day and that means my first Earth Day Blog Hop!!!!!

*** Please note:  If you want the full Hop experience, you need to start at A Home Made by Kiki, trust me, it's worth it! ***

If this is your first time visiting, we'd like to welcome you to Domestic Deadline (by we, I mean my various personalities)!  Please feel free to check out my little piece of blogland and leave nice comments if you find something you like ;)  If you're a regular, well, you're welcome too (you can also look around and leave nice comments)!

So, what's this blog hop all about, you ask?  Well... good things for the environment of course... keep reading and you can win some of those good things for the environment... and a little dirty talk...

Did that get your attention?  All right, get your head out of the toilet, I didn't mean that kind of dirty talk!  I meant this kind of dirty talk:

Yup, I let it go for a few weeks just for this blog hop.  Why?  Traditionally, if I let the toilet get this bad I'd have to give in to a toilet bowl cleaner with bleach in it and still scrub with all my might.  But a few weeks back I found out about Shaklee which offers non-toxic and natural cleaning products that are safe, powerful, Earth friendly and just plain SMART! 

I put two drops of Basic H2 into the bowl and swirled it around, let it sit for a few minutes (I would have done that with bleach based products too) and much to my surprise, not much muscle power was needed to  get that nasty ring off.

But I couldn't just stop there.  I wiped down the rest of the toilet with one Basic H2 wipe.  When cleaning wipes first entered the market, I jumped on the band-wagon, they made cleaning that much faster.  It didn't take too long for me to realize how many were ending up in a land fill and returned to a spray and washable cleaning rags.  The wipes made it so much easier for me to get the girls to help with bathroom cleaning, but there was one for the mirror, a different one (or three when the girls clean) for the counter and another one or two for the toilet.  The Basic H2 wipes have solved this dilemma in our house, currently reffered to as magic wipes by the girls.  They were so relieved to be able to use wipes again, and surprised to find they could start with the mirror, move to the counter and finish with the toilet all with one wipe (that's why they are magic).

See, now the whole toilet is nice and clean and no harmful chemicals were used in the process, that make me happy.

So are you interested in trying Shaklee and cleaning your home with clean cleaning supplies?  Here are the opportunities:

1. Starting at A Home Made by Kiki, collect the letters by hoping from one blog to the next.  Once you have collected all the letters, e-mail the phrase to healthy-solutions@hotmail.com to be entered into the drawing for the GRAND PRIZE! (by April 30th at midnight ET).
2. Become a follower of Domestic Deadline AND A Home Made by Kiki via Google Friend Connect, leave me a comment for an entry to win a Basic H2 sample (by April 30th at midnight ET, you MUST be following both of our blogs).
3. If you can't wait to see if you win, Shaklee is having an Earth Day special, FREE membership with any $30 purchase AND other great specials that you can find out about by sending an email to healthy-solutions@hotmail.com. 
4. Check out my Stashbusting Give-A-Way for the opportunity to win some other great stuff (ends at midnight ET today, April 22nd, 2011)

Ready to hop and win?  The letters you need are SH and the next blog is Momof3dolls.blogspot.com

Peace be with you,

Earth Day Every Day

Not only is today the deadline to file your taxes but it is also one week until Earth Day!  Ok, maybe I'm a bit of a geek, but I feel taking care of the planet we live on is everyone's daily job.  If it takes a "holiday" to make some people remember it, I'll take it.

Earth Day is also the last day of The T-Shirt Diaries Spring Stashbusting Challenge.  I've done petty well but I'm going to be continuing to work through my stash for a few more weeks, that's for sure. 


Next Friday is also the last day to enter my Stash Busting Give-a-Way and earn $75+ in Avon products and more.

This Earth Day I will also be a part of the Earth Day Blog Hop hosted by Kristina over at A Home Made by Kiki! 

This will be a fun event to "meet" some different bloggers, "collect" something from each blog, enter each of our give-a-ways, and if you travel to all the blogs, be eligible for the awesome grand prize!

Peace be with you,

Stash Busting Give-a-Way

Welcome to my first official Domestic Deadline Give-a-Way.  As I mentioned the other day, a part of my decluttering and stash busting is going to include my Avon inventory.  I've decided I have enough stuff to put together goody bags for all the teachers at my childrens' school for Teacher Appreciation Week, that's how much inventory I have!

Wouldn't you like to get a goody bag too?  Well, you can!  I'm putting together a goody bag for one lucky Domestic Deadline reader with at least $75 worth of Avon products including Skin So Soft, Naturals, fragrance, the amazing Advanced Techniques Frizz Control and an Anew skin care product.  The goody bag will also include a hand made piece of jewelry from yours truly.

So, how do you enter? First follow me (mandatory).  Then leave me a comment that you are a follower (leave a comment if you're already a follower for your entry).

Want more chances, you can earn another chance for each of these, leave a comment for each:

1. Follow me - this is mandatory, if you aren't a follower, all other entries will be void (don't make me be a meanie!)
2. Follow my new Facebook Page
3. Check out my Avon site, leave me a comment with what our favorite product is or what product you would love to try
4. Place an order for direct ship from my Avon site

Last day to enter is April 22nd, the end of the Spring Stashbust.  I will pick the winner on April 23rd via random generator, so check back to see if you won!

Peace be with you,
