First post of the new year

The kids keep asking me if I've updated my blog yet. I haven't been able to spend much time on the computer lately, but a new year is a good time for a fresh start, so here I am!

One of the main reason I created this blog was so that I could participate in book challenges and contests. The first contest of the year that caught my eye was Pam at Bookalicio.us's  two year blog anniversary contest. She is giving away tons of books and advance readers. The Grand Prize is a NookColor! This blog entry counts for 5 points in the contest. If you are interested in entering, you can get additional points by tweeting or posting to facebook or tumblr. Head on over to Bookalicio.us to enter. Check it out, the prizes are terrific and Pam deserves all of the attention, her site is terrific.

Pedigree Adoption Drive

Each year, more than 4 million dogs end up in shelters and breed rescue organizations. Pedigree created The PEDIGREE® Adoption Drive to help shine a spotlight on the plight of these homeless dogs.

This year the PEDIGREE Adoption Drive is raising awareness for homeless dogs by donating a bowl of food to shelter dogs for everyone who becomes a “Fan” or “Likes” The PEDIGREE® Adoption Drive on Facebook. So far more than 1 million bowls have been donated.

For each blog that posts about the PEDIGREE® Adoption Drive through September 19th, PEDIGREE® will donate a bag of their new Healthy Longevity Food for Dogs to shelters nationwide. It’s simple: Write a post, help a dog.

From Thursday Sept. 16th through Sept. 19th, go to Life With Dogs Blog and leave the link to your blog post so it can be counted. Too easy!

Better still adopt a dog. Maybe a greyhound? No home is complete without a fur-friend.
