• Mar. 6, 2007 - Too Much Stuff Contest!

Posted in HSB News

This contest was originally over on the Porch, but only one person entered and she let me know that it was a real problem leaving comments over there. So Cammie wins by default! Way to go!

Now, however, I want to give all of you another chance to win the below book!

To help promote Kathryn Porter's book, Too Much Stuff, I thought it would be fun to have a contest! Here's what I want you to do, first go over to the Porch and read the interview I had with Kathryn, then do the following:

Go and find the part of your home, car, garage, storage shed, mother-in-laws attic that you want to de-clutter. Take a picture of it and put it on your blog.

In your blog entry tell what the picture is for and tell us how that area became so cluttered, how you plan to de-clutter it and what you will do with the space after it is cleaned up. Be sure to link back to this contest.

Leave a comment right here, giving us the link to your blog entry.

One winner will be announced on March 13 and they will receive a copy of Kathryn Porters book, Too Much Stuff.

I would be too embarrassed to post mine. Maybe that's why you only had one entry last time. :D

Maybe I'll just buy the book, apparently I need it.

WTG Cammie.

I know I entered the contest, unless I didn't do it correctly. My comment is even over on the HSBCompanyPorch. LOL, I even kept checking back to see if anyone else entered and to see who the winner was. Glad I saw this or I would still be wondering.

Hi,
you left a comment on my blog (the post "Contacted Support"). In that comment you said you could see two entries, and hoped that meant everything was working properly....

It actually means it is NOT working properly. There were about 6 entries at the time (and are about 13 now). I have all but two set to "friends only". The two you saw are set to allow "everyone" to view them. The others are not allowing anyone but me to view them, not even those on my friends list.

I tried setting the posts to allow "registered users" to view, but that was allowing everyone to view them. I could sure use some help figuring out what changes I need to make for this to work.

Thanks!

Just wanted to let you know that I have humbly lowered myself to admit a HUGE fault of mine. I have shamefully posted a photo on my blog of my worst cluttered area in my home and how I plan to make into something wonderful.
I look forward to hearing about the winner. Thank you for encouraging me to make a difference in the area of my home.

I have fixed the blog I posted for the contest. I do know that decluttering this area will bring joy to my heart and soul. Not only is it depressing to see this mound of clutter each day but it is making me physically ill. When I decluttered the other rooms of the house there was a deep free feeling, and then I came ill and have had to look at this mess for so long I know it is just weakening me more.
So... I am off to make a difference.
Thanks again for the inspiration!

The politically incorrect ramblings of a sage rat den mother. As well as thoughts on adoption, special needs children, and My Lord and Savior.

About my Avatar: Tia Turtle is a character in a new book by Gena Suarez, "And Then Mama Said...It Takes Time to Learn to Read." Kevin Collier is the illustrator and he made me my special avatar, because yes, Tia Turtle is named after Me! (Okay, so I'm bragging. Leave me a correctional comment in love.)
