Kindle Bzz Campaign - Me, Me!!

I have been a Bzz Agent for several years now and have enjoyed it immensely. As a Bzz Agent, I try out products, then spread 'bzz' on what I think about them, my experiences using them, positive/negative things about them, etc. And then I report back with the responses I receive. I usually get a bunch of rad coupons to hand out as well. I love it. I love to talk, and blog, and FB, and Tweet...So it's great.

Anywho...the latest Bzz Campaign is for a Kindle...Yes! A KINDLE! How awesome is that!! All you have to do to be picked is tweet why you want to be part of the campaign. I, of course could not pass up this opportunity! I tweeted that I want to be chosen because not only do I read a lot, I read a lot of books that are hard to find. I went to the library here in town to find a book on adopting children that have been sexually molested and of course I couldn't find anything like that in a town like this. Amazon was right there with a nice selection though. Not exactly the sought after books that everyone else is out there to find, but nonetheless, great material and information for someone like myself. Over the past two years I've probably ready two dozen books about adopting older kids, kids with fetal alcohol syndrome, PTSD, reactive attachment disorder and many, many others. Having a Kindle would be a great way for me to look back in any of these books for info that I might need in the future. I have toyed with the idea of buying one for a while now...but with everything else going on, it just wasn't in our budget. So, there you go. That's why I want to be picked for this campaign. #imabzzagent

Fall is here!

And it's time for an update :) Well, nothing much to update really. We are getting ready to do another back ground check with the new agency we've chosen...that's about it really. I checked out the MN Adopt website the other day and seen a sunny smiling little face looking back at me...that was incentive enough to kick my butt back on track and get the ball rolling again.

July 2011 marked TWO YEARS that we've been approved and waiting. Yesterday morning I read in the paper that a little boy down by the cities was killed by his mothers boyfriend when he slammed his head against the bathroom floor. Then this morning I read they found a newborn baby girl in a plastic bag floating in the Mississippi River...I just can't even fathom a mother doing that to her child. It just breaks my heart. I would have gladly opened my home to both of them. RIP little angels.
