- U.T.E.R.U.S. Update: a second ad for U.T.E.R.U.S. has gone up on my sidebar over at Stirrup Queens. They money from all of the ads in that ad space go to U.T.E.R.U.S. Therefore, support the blogger or business who purchases the space and if you want it, go bid on it over at the US eBay site (it currently has one bid--but there are two days left on the bidding). I'll design your ad and hopefully you'll get a few new readers in the process. By the way,we have so many cool auctions running on the US eBay right now and need your help to advertise it. Please put in a plug anywhere you post and make the US eBay auction as successful as the UK one!
- Team On the Road continues to truck along. There are now three teams walking in honour of Lennox and Zoe: Stirrup Queens, My Perky Ovaries, and In Search of Biscuit 2.0. I cannot thank enough those who have donated or posted the code for Team On the Road. We've currently raised $3250! If you would like to help with our March of Dimes fundraising, read this post and join along. There are at least five things you could do!
- If you notice another loading slow down or receive error messages for Stirrup Queens or Lost and Found, please let me know. Now I'm nervous every time I add anything to the side bar!
