Giveaway:
Yep, it's Thursday which means giveaway day! Just a few quick things about giveaways:
1~If there is a mandatory entry for a giveaway you MUST follow the rules. There have been a handful of people who have been disqualified for not commenting the 1 mandatory rule.
2~Please be sure to check end dates on the giveaways.
Today's giveaway is totally different because it will be uniquely put together for the winner based on your blog/personality. All you have to do is comment.
How exciting huh?
P.S. My ENTIRE google reader is BLANK...GONE...a.k.a NO lovely bloggy blogs. This is not just a blonde moment, it is really gone. I have been just finding blogs again through comments here and comments on other blogs. So, if I have not been to your blog in awhile, now you know why.

I have won a lot of things this year, a lot of experiences and met so many good, awesome people I don't think another is in my near future but I would love you to check out my blog anyway http://www.bitlesshorseblog.com
Fun give away. Surprises ar the best!!! That sucks about your Reader. Hopefully it will magically reappear. XOXO
Heyy lady!! I love that quote! Sorry about your google reader :(
Ooo fun, pick me, pick me! lol
I hate when the blog reader fails. I don't think I'd be able to find half of my fave blogs again if mine did that. Interested to see what the giveaway is!
Sorry to hear your reader thing is gone!! Hope you can find all the blogs you like to read! Love the giveaway idea and love love love the posted quote.
Have a great afternoon!!

http://lidiaadel.blogspot.com
well that blows! I can't wait to see what giveaway you have in store.
by the wy- love that image- how brilliant. :)
Love, love, love, love the quote. I consider myself a winner from this post already. This happened to me, but they were back the next day. This terrifies me, I guess I need to go and write down all of my blogs, just in case. Somedays I just hate blogger, but after research I have decided it's best to stay here. I do have the . com reserved, but scared I will lose readers. How are you today sunshine?
I usually don't enter giveaways, but who can resist a mystery??
Oh no! I am so sorry you reader is gone!
And, I think you have the most exciting idea for a giveaway!
Who doesn't love surprises?!
I'm a follower, I LOVE your blog, and I would love to win the giveaway! ;)
Hope you have a fabulous day dear!
You can visit my blog! sorry yours is being messed up :(
so exciting....i cannot wait to see who wins this giveaway and what they get!!! pick me! pick me!
I love surprises, and I love to see how other's interpret my personality from my words. How exciting!

I am leaving you a comment!! Love that quote!
great quote! your blog is adorable and what a fun giveaway!
Very good quote.
Love that you're putting together the contents of the giveaway based on who the winner is & what their style is. So fun!
I use Dashboard, and it often tells me that I am not following any blogs. I re-load the page {sometimes a couple times} and there they are again. I do have Reader, and have lots of blogs in there, but I don't use it. So I wish I had some advice on that, but I don't. Sorry!
Love the quote... and the giveaway has me intrigued! Can't wait to hear what you put together!
That stinks about reader. I had that happen once, so I bookmarked all the ones I read on my laptop :)
The giveway sounds so fun! Can't wait to see how it turns out!
OH! what a fun giveaway!! so exciting! i'm sorry about your blogger.. i can't imagine!! eeek!
Hi Jewels, thanks for stopping by my blog and I'm so glad I found yours!
Oy I wouldn't know what to do if my Google reader blew up esp. since a blogger's URL is different from their screen name.
Oh and I also hate to disqualify people who don't read the rules (err I hope I'm not one too often) and then I have to disqualify them. Anyways, lovely giveaway!
The quote of the day is fabulous! Thank you for sharing!
Ohh looking forward to hearing about the giveaway!!!
:)
Loosing something sometimes means finding a lot of new things you might not have ever thought to look for.... That is a crazy way of saying something very simple. Sigh. If you got through that than you might like reading my blog. I'm what I like to consider...organized confusion.
Sounds fun.. count me in :-)
I would be crushed if my blog reader went blank! Hopefully this helps you build yours back up!!!
Oh no! I would have such anxiety if all my blogs went missing, HA! I hope you find them all again. Love being bloggy friends :)
Great quote by the way...

Great quote by the way...
Hey there Jewels :) I love that quote! I love following your blog because it's so uplifting, raw, real, and vulnerably beautiful! Thanks for all of your wonderful life lessons, giveaway opportunities, and insights! My blog is still a work in progress (just getting it started actually...and trying to figure out how to jazz up the page), but I'd like for you to check it out....I'm still a "rookie" to the whole blogosphere world - hahaha!

-Kara @ lilmisswisecracker.com
I wish more people would live by that quote! and that horrible that your reader is gone! omg
cool idea for a giveaway-bummer on the reader-hope it magically reappears for you!
Love the quote! So true! And I allso really like the picture below it!
I am sorry that your blog reader is down :( Mine was for a few days too..but its back now..Hope you can get yours working soon!
XOXO
Reader did that to me once. I couldn't believe it!
I ♥ the quote. I absolutely ♥ it!
I am very intrigued! Hope you figure out all the problems with google reader soon!
How awesome! loving this giveaway!
Hope it comes back!!! :)
Oh Juliana, like your life hasn't been crazy enough, blogger lost your following feed. That would make me wacky. Well, you know that is a short trip for me. I'm so sorry. I hope it pops up in the manner that it disappeared: Magically. Anyway, I loved your quote. Yesterday's blog (mine) was wrapped around a deleted scene from Grey's Anatomy. It was about connections. I hope you take a minute to stop in and read it.
I'm still pushing positive energy your way. I know things will turn out for you.
Your post today reminded me of a Native American quote that I haven't thought about in a long time. I think you just gave me inspiration for today's blog. I always love visiting your page!
Love you Juliana. Keep taking care of you...xoxoxo
cool idea!
good luck with your greader!
Ooh, how intriguing!!
I'm pretty sure you found me again yesterday. ;-) Sorry about your reader!!
Such a fun giveaway! I hope you find your lost blog reader - good luck!

I'm officially intrigued! Count me in!! :)
Well - this is a giveaway with a difference! Love it. I'm in.
TOTALLY INTRIGUED, this sounds fun!
my google reader did the same thing----no fun!!!!!
I am just crazy about this giveaway!!! Eeeee!!! What a fun idea! Crossing my fingers (and toes and eyes) that I'm the lucky duck winner!
You have me curious as to what the giveaway really is and I hope to win. Love the quote!
I am completely intrigued!! Can't wait to see what this is all about! So sorry to hear about your Reader!!
Today's giveaway sounds so interesting! Count me in too! www.anewkindofnormal.com
I hope you find mine.! I would be crushed if you didn't have me!!. (: This is really cute idea. You are so crafty.!
I'd love to have you put something together personally!
Love that quote!
Love the quote! I don't know what I would do if my reader disappeared. It has taken some time to discover some of the awesome blogs that I have.
Sorry you lost your blog reader!!
Just want you to know you have given me much inspiration to share with my sister, who is fighting a GOOD fight!! Just know there are people like me out here needing you for inspiration to "pay it forward"! much thanks and love
Lisa G
Dude, my blog reader is being weird too! It's been going on for a few weeks! Yours came up today, but there are several posts of yours that don't show up and I would say about 20% of the blogs I follow only show up here and there. Does it happen if you start to follow too many people? Annoying huh?
Wow! This is fun and exciting! Fun giveaway!! Woohoo! :)
I just come back to say thank you for stopping by my blog!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the quote!!! Can I borrow it? (of course, you'll get credit and stuff)
count me in for the giveaway!! wow...sounds like really cool!
I've accidentally MARKED ALL AS READ on the Google Reader, before; never though, have my blogs disappeared. Dang Google! Messes up too much!
I can't imagine what I would do without the Google Reader! What a bizarre thing to occur. I love the "quote" you posted.
Looking forward to seeing what this grand giveaway is for the winner.
LOVE the QOTD...I want that :)
Fun giveaway...so exciting...hehehe!!
I might die if my Google Reader went blank...!
And mystery giveaways might be my favorite :)
I'm very intrigued by the giveaway!!! Can't wait to see who/what the result is!
That scares me...I mean not seriously scares me, but scares me b/c Reader is how I keep track of my blogs...I'd be lost.
I think I understand the giveaway based on other people's comments...I'm not typically a complete moron, I just don't read between the lines too well...okay, maybe I am a complete moron...maybe I just have twins that run me around all day...who knows?
What a fun giveaway! I can't wait to see what the winner gets! Just so you know, I like balloons, butterflies, cupcakes, chihuahuas and tattoos! Just in case you didn't get that from my blog. So now you know what to get me when I win! LOL
That sux your blog reader is gone! Hopefully you'll be able to find everyone again. And who knows, maybe you'll be able to find a few more friends along the way! :)
Thanks so much for all of your advice. I know you have your own issues to deal with so it meant a lot that you were willing to help me.
Have a beautiful day, my friend!
Your comments make my day, darlin'...holy crap, your blog reader is gone? I'd freak out but do what you're doing...sift through the comments first and try and see if I forgot anyone.
Okay, so does one win this giveaway by leaving a sparkly comment infused with their personality? If so I like long walks on the beach, peanut butter chocolate anything, and root beer floats. :)
::Hugs:: and I LOVED that quote!
What a fun giveaway! I adore your quote btw--I think I want to paint that somehow for our bedroom...

How neat! A custom giveaway!
I just found you and am now hooked! I love the quote...I had never heard it before today and it is so true and helps us to remember not to get caught up in "keeping up" but instead being unique, helpful and inspiring to others through our words! I cant wait to see the custom giveaway! Cool idea!
hey sweet pea! what a fun idea for a giveaway. that picture is lovely and so perfect.
no doubt you'd put together a collaboration of wonderful things!

Oh goddess, the thought of losing all of the Google Reader. Nightmare.
And I love that blackboard quote.
And the giveaway sounds cool.
How does that happen?? I don't know what I'd do without my GReader.
Sorry your reader disappeared on you! I'm not tech savvy at all!
Beautiful quote! Bummer about Google Reader, hope you can restore it!
Yikes that stinks about your google reader!

Here I am, add me to your reader, haha. Curious to see who wins the giveaway and what they receive.

Google Reader can be such a pain sometimes!

I love that comment. I would be so sad if my reader disappeared. I only discovered it recently.
Great quote, I saved the pic coz the words had meaning to me.
Jewels, I was just thinking about you when your blog button scrolled up on my scroller. Hope all is well. -Pippi
I'm sorry your blog reader is gone! That totally stinks!
I love the quote!
What an exciting giveaway!
I hope you have a beautiful and blessed week! XOXO, Ka
Ew, that's too bad about your Google Reader! How frustrating! Technology is so difficult sometimes!
I meant to comment the other day on your previous post - I am SO excited for you that you have a surrogate! I have been thinking about you and your family lately. I hope you're doing okay!
I can't wait to see what this mystery giveaway is! I'm sure it will be an awesome surprise for whoever wins it, even if it isn't me :)
Take care!!
I bookmark all of the blogs I read. I do it right after I add it to my reader, every time! I'm paranoid. :)
wow - that stinks! so crazy, makes me wonder if that will happen to me?! scary!
hope you are getting all of your bloggy blog readers back today!
love your giveaways!!!
exciting giveaway
please enter me!
Aah how exciting!! OK add me back to your reader meow, mmkay? Thanks :-)
I think I'd freak if the reader was gone! I'm not sure what I did before it!
Love the quote and the image of words "flutter(ing) from your extraordinary mind!" Words are very powerful.
But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart... Matthew 15:18
Even a fool who keeps silent is considered wise; Proverbs 17:28
Boo to your reader being gone! How does that even happen?!?!
But, Sometimes having a blank slate is refreshing, hopefully thats what it was for you!!
I love a mysterious giveaway!!
Wow weird on the reader. I am happy you made it by yesterday though. :) I'm interested in the giveaway! :)
i want to win this personalized giveaway! how fun!!! my google reader has been in and out of commission too... so weird!
Yay for giveaways! Too sad about your Reader- it would be great to see you around my blog again :)
I am so intrigued by your giveaway at this point I just HAD to comment!
I'm so sorry about your reader - I think I would cry buckets of tears if I lost all my blogs!!!!
Please come back to mackenziescraftymom.blogspot.com - I miss you!!! :)
Yeay, can't wait to see what I win!!!
I absolutely adore that quote/piece of art. It's beautiful!
I love the quote! Also count me in for the giveaway!!!

Congrats on tackling your reader, sometimes it feels like a huge weight on my shoulders to get that thing cleaned out! haha :)
You are such an amazing woman...keep on doing what you do! Sorry about all your blog stuff disappeared....
I would completely freak out if my reader got screwed up!
this could be interesting!

Hunny I know that you will have a child in your arms one way or another with a bit of patience and FAITH! I love you to shred my fun sized Buddy!
What a great quote! It so easy to get caught up in the things that don't really matter. Thanks so much for sharing it and I hope everything with your surrogate works out ( :

Sounds like a lot of fun...I'm game :)
http://myshadowintime.blogspot.com/
What is the mandatory rule? I read twice...thrice!
Just a comment?
:) That I can do...
Perhaps the Reader thing is temporary? These things seem to happen. Often.
I'll be watching to see what the winner gets. It should be interesting!
Andrea
Well I'm wondering if your reader is gone because you made it go away (i.e. freedom!) or it was an accident.
Love this rule for the giveaway...intellesting!
New follower. Love love the photo you posted!
I can't wait :) enter me!
ps - i love that written image, too!

Hi there..following you from Friday Follow! I hope you will follow me back!
I've always loved that quote. Love you!
I swear I commented before but can't see it now, so I am commeting again. I love the quote.
Thanks for stopping by my blog because now I'm visiting yours. When I read your blog title I chuckled. When I read the quote I got teary eyed as my husband read that to me at our wedding. When I read your blog (I've read several posts) I realized you are own amazing gal. You are strong, yet human. You are wise and honest. You seem to "get it" about life. I think you and I could be friends!
My shadow boxes make my eyes tear up...that mean the world to me...I've captured some meaningful stuff in them. I'll be back.
Sorry about your blog reader! I would be devastated if that happened to me! Is there any way to get them back? Hope you find a solution soon!
New to this...but sounds like big fun!
I'm so glad you commented on my blog! *squee!*
I love grey's and was SO sad that it wasn't new this week! ah! Thursday nights are my "glass of wine and hospital drama" nights!
The quote about freeing herself and the birds is PERFECT!!! You couldn't have written me that at a more perfect time! :)
Thanks!! :)
-Kara @ lilmisswisecracker.com
Your blog is so cute!! And just love that quote!!
Have a blessed weekend!! =)
