That was a great list! With all the walking and how fit you look I bet you do have a great bum!LOL!
I thought you were a talented singer? I did know you got “mauied?” in Hawaii. I bet that was romantic!
Thanks for sharing…I might do a 100 things about me list…the sad thing is I’ve done so many of these, I think that most people know it all!!
What a great list. Way to go reaching your 100th Post. I say keep aiming for the 200th post. We will keep reading as we learn how to organize from you. You seem like a really great person.
Hey Laura, Congrats on your 100th post and getting me hooked. You have a great hubby, from the little I know of him and you have three great happy kids as well. You also have great parents whose house we are really enjoying lol. Way to go again. Keep up the good work girl. Sue H
Congrats on your first 100 posts! I just started reading your blog in the last few weeks– love it! I’m hoping some of your organizing passion will rub off on me. I can definitely use it!
Cool list! We have 47 things in common (but not the last one LOL) That was fun! Congrats on your 100th post!!
How wonderful to get to know you better! Congratulations on your 100th post!!
I am slightly jealous that you are one of those people who can fall asleep easily (it takes me for.ev.er), but I guess I’ll let it go since you share my appreciation for chocolate and my lack of appreciation for housework. :)
What a great list! That was awesome – however I noticed that you never said one thing about what great parents you have and what terrific siblings – maybe that will be on your 200th post!
Mom
Laura, Congrats. I hope that some day I can have 100 posts. I can dream big too!! haha. Love coming to your site. Jennifer
That was a great list Laura, I feel like I know so much more about you :)
I check my email constantly too LOL
I also can’t eat just one chip and I DO love ketchup ones.
I’m just shocked that you don’t like coffee *GASP* LOL
Have a great day :)
Here’s comment #10 :) I like #s 51 and 100 Laura :)
Kim
Congrats on 100!!! That is awesome!!!
It was so nice to find out more about you…and yes I made it all the way to 100…made me giggle!!
Oh this is fun! CONGRATULATIONS! I loved hearing all about you! I laughed about the dancing and silly dancing. And you don’t travel well? Does that mean you get carsick or you just hate traveling?
Thanks for the Candyland reminder. Just before having children, we played it with friends, and boy was it never-ending! Whenever someone almost won, they got sent to a gooey candy swamp! We kept saying we couldn’t imagine little children playing without fighting, and wondered how we did. I’m going to get the game out & teach the boys! :>
Ok wow Laura,
I loved that. I can’t wait to do mine. We have so much in common. Mostly that I think I might leave my high school sweetheart husband if I ever met the Take Home Chef!!! Congrats. Since I am new to your blog it was nice to get to know you a little better.
Congrats on your 100! LOL to #100. Yes I was still reading and you got me there for a second! Favorite chip is ketchup! Girl we need to have a chat! You don’t like coffee, we need to have another chat! :vD
You sound like a great person to know in real life!
Very good Laura…and you were even honest!!
And yes folks I’ve even seen her dance by herself on the dance floor!!
I was here yesterday for the holiday recipes! Just wanted to stop back in and say congratulations on 100 posts.
You have so many good ideas on your site!
This I just absolutely loved……all of it. Cant wait for 200…..enjoyed getting to know you a little better,
Jen
Wow. Congrats on the big blogging milestone!
I enjoyed reading your 100th post! I, too, think the Take Home Chef is hot! :::Swoon:::
I have 6 more posts until I reach 100!
Way to go friend! 100 already?? WOW! And yes folks I can attest to this gal being funny – she is one of my dear friends…………..she has a contagious laugh and actually looks happy all the time(hmmmm, what you up to?) She has one of the most beautiful smiles I know – I feel blessed to know her! Keep blogging —- you wouldn’t want to dissappoint your fans…….would you?
Congrats Sis!! Loved the list
Me
Good list, nice to read a bit about you! Congrats on your posts.
And you are almost a 1/4 of the way to getting your comments too!
YAY! Congrats to you! And thanks for leaving me a comment at my blog!
Which pasta recipe did you want? The one for the chicken penne pasta? Or the sausage, pepper, and cabbage sauce?
Happy 100!
(but how can you hate cats? lol)
Sherry
Congrats on making it to “100″. I am a lurker, but do enjoy your tips and encouragement.
Stephanie
Congratulations on your 100th Post..it’s as inspirational as all your other ones!!!
I, too, am another Stephanie lurker who appreciates your organizing and recipe ideas.
I must say, I don’t know what Ketchup chips are…are they a kind of potato chip?
Oh, and let us know how you liked this week’s recipes. I’m curious about the chowder.
Steph in San Antonio
Okay,I’ll crawl out of the woodwork and say hi to congratulate you on your 100th post! I somehow came across your blog a couple of weeks ago and love it (I have visited everyday since). I seriously did not think there was another person in this world that liked to purge and organize like I do! :) I totally relate with your blog. Hope you keep it up!!!
Hey Laura
great list I was totally shocked about the dancing alone thing I never would have guessed it but I guess if people have witnessed this act of craziness then I will beleive it. Talk to ya soon.
Tasha
Ok, so it isn’t the 100th comment, but a delurker at any rate. I so enjoy reading your posts and love the (relatively) new look, btw.
Congratulations on 100 posts! Wowsers!
Yo Yo BIG Sista! Love your list and your blog in general.
Too everyone out there I can vouch for my sister, her list is true and acurate – hey I would even say Laura dances like Elaine on Seinfield, but that’s only when she’s dancing seriously.
Love your anonymous brother…
Honey I get motion sickness pretty bad…no fun at all!
Akkk….Stephanie you need to email me with your address and I’ll send you some ketchup chips…you haven’t lived until you’ve tried them….soooo good!!! Right Susanne…he he.
I thank you all for your comments. I really enjoyed them…they so made my day!!!!!! Except of course for the one that says I dance like Elaine…don’t believe it for a second!!!!! He’s just jealous of my moves…lol.
Congratulations on 100 posts. I’m sure you’ll reach 200 in no time.
My husband and I would both tell you that our very favorite event when we watch the Olympics is the curling. And I’m a sucker for cooking magazines, too. Love them.
This is a great list. It was really fun to read all this about you.
OMGosh! We have soooo much in common! Seriously, I’d write it all down, but i’m too lazy to go find a pen!! But, for real, we have like 90% of your list in common!
Awesome list!! I’m glad to know of your comedic powers as well. Unleash them on us someday. And you really are a Candadian, eh? Ketchup potato chips? Curling? That list was fun to read.
Since you wish there were more pics of you, you should grace us all with a picture–put the face to the name and the organizing prowess.
Congratulations, Laura! Keep up the good work! Thanks for hosting Menu Plan Monday — it’s a great help to me.
God bless,
Mrs.T
Oh and I was going to say that once you meet Dixie Cat you may have to change your mind about cats….well maybe!!
What a great list!!! We are alike in SO many ways! I love your blog! :)
Love #79…and you collect containers and smiley face stuff. I miiss you you!
Hey Sarah, miss you too! I used to collect smiley stuff for my office at work…now I don’t have an office at work so no more smiley faces…I miss it sometimes.
Congrats on your 100th post! Sheesh, has it been that long already? You are a busy bee! I think you should have put “I deal well with large omnivores invading my back yard.” What poise! Have a great day from a fellow lefty – I’m hoping that if I hang around you long enough, you will open up the side of my brain that controls the organizing function!
100 already! Oh what a fun list. And there were many things on the list that I kept saying “Me too!”
You and Susanne need to move to Kansas , so we can get into all sorts of trouble! (And so you can organize my life… come on, I’ll make it worth your while with all the biscuits and gravy, apple pie and games you could ever want.)
Hey, it was worth a shot.
Congratulations on reaching 100. I just did mine this week, too. I have to say how impressed I am that you already have 42 comments. I have six. LOL
I’m glad I checked through the responses — I was really hoping you did dance like Elaine. SO FUNNY! I have brothers too. They keep me young! :)
P.S. I saw your Bookworm’s blog and mentioned some of my favorites from when I was her age.
A Loser cruiser? Is that a PT cruiser, or something else entirely?
You know I was waiting for someone to ask me what a loser cruiser was…lol…that’s what some call the mini van…I happen to love mine though and wonder how I ever lived without it!
So this is your 100th post, nice! I had to laugh when I got to the last one that said you have a nice bum. :) My 21 month old calls his bottom a bum. :)
Thanks for making a point to participate in my Hooray for 100 link exchange! I do appreciate it!
I hope you get your 100 comments!
This is a really great list, it got me thinking about what I’d put on my own. I just found your blog, today—it inspired me to clean and organize my kids’ room. Thanks!!`
Loved your list – we seem to have a lot in common.
great list – I really enjoy your blog! thanks for the big 100!
LOL!! I have a nice bum too… glad to see that you can admit to that one. :)
I just finished my 100th. It was fun to read these things about you. We have quite a bit in common.
WOOHOO! good job reaching 100 :D
You just might make it past a hundred comments. I’m a leftie and the oldest of three too!
Congratulations!
My 100 Things list was too morbid, so I deleted it and instead gave out a link where folks could go get over 100 ebooks for free. I’m either a rebel or a scaredycat, lol.
Congratulations on your 100th post!
That was a great list! You cracked me up at 100! Congrats on such a great blog. You provide such awesome info for everyone.
Congratulations! I wasn’t paying attention and hadn’t been out in the blogging world long enough to know about this tradition so when I hit 100, I missed it! LOL Now, I’m at 240+ so I guess I’ll wait ’til 300?! *wink* Could I come up with (or would any one CARE) if I listed 300 things! LOL
HAHAHA. I got stuck at #47 and #48. That cracks me up. My husband tells me the same thing. He’ll catch me organizing and say “I thought you were cleaning…” and I’ll tell him I am. He says I never like to clean, but I like to organize..
Ok off to read your other 50…
I also label everything, and I am TOO planned, and not spontaneous enough! I enjoyed reading your 100. It hink I need to do another 100th post on my blog!
And yes I read all 100, and saw the bum comment!
This is a great website.
I am 7 months pregnant and I want to get my home organized before the baby arrives.
Since I live in downtown Honolulu, I can only afford a 1-bedroom apartment. But I am determined to keep it organized and set an example that my child could follow.
From one fellow organiser to another, congratulations on your 100th post. Just thought I would help you try to reach 100 comments!
Hey congrats on this site I will try to follow in your organization skills ……..Best Wishes
Pat=)
I just found your blog last week, so the 100 list got me caught up fast! Just wanted to help you reach 100 comments……..but could use organization tips for homeschooling 4 kids!!
Jen
I was looking for a answer to Polly Pocket…my daughter is getting wrapped up in them…and before it becomes a nightmare i needed an organizing tip. The answer was this site! Way to go on the 100th! I will be here waiting to see the 200th! :)
I loved reading your 100 things! In many ways you sound a lot like me. I’m thinking of taking up blogging so I can do my 100 things about me! Love your site, it’s fun, and fresh and has lots of great ideas. Thanks for taking the time to blog and for sharing yourself with us.
Here I was, thinking we could be friends, and then I got to #96.
:-)
I just posted my 100th post/100 things about me list last week. What a great occasion that was. So congrats (even though this was well over a year ago, LOL)!!!!!
Hee hee – these are wonderful! I’m not sure I could ever come up with 100 things about me, guess I should start my list now, huh?
I’ve had great fun and motivation in my organizing since I found your site. Thanks so much for doin’ what ya do!
:-)
The Take Home Chef is hot! You crack me up. Thanks for sharing all about you!!!
~J
you might get those 100 comments one day! we can all dream! I love this list, it’s like reading about myself. except I Love Cats! we have three!
Hi! Just leaving a comment because you asked. You are very organized! Your blog puts me to shame. :) A friend mentioned you so I came over to check it out.
I want to visit BC some day (random fact).
We were missionaries in Africa and now live in West Texas…
And I may try to organize my house this summer “with you” before school starts again. :( (sad for school).
Thanks for blogging!
(I’ve gotten sucked in too!)
