I'm Baaack...and Have a Competition/Giveaway!

Ok, time to get back at it.  Blogging and working out.  No more excuses...I have had my baby almost 3 months ago, and I need to stop making excuses!!

But first, I gotta show you us...aren't we cute?!


Here's another one of my sweet, little McKinley!


She is my cheerleader for losing weight!  She is also cheering on K-State...although it didn't help much...did you see that pathetic display of football on the 3rd?  Sheesh!

Back to the original reason for this post!  I need to find some motivation to lose some weight again!  I have an idea, though.  As some or most of you know, I own my own small business called PolkaDaisy.

At PolkaDaisy, I create hand stamped necklaces, hand stamped bracelets, and keepsakes for people.  Kind of like mommy necklaces, mommy bling, or whatever you want to call it.  However, I want to make a necklace for motivation!  

Here is where you lovely followers come in!  What the heck should I have this necklace say?!  What are some words that inspire you to work out, do your best, etc??

Ok, as I'm sitting here typing this, I am getting really excited and getting some good ideas!  How about this turns into a little competition?  The person whose "saying" or words of inspiration that I choose will ALSO get a necklace with the saying on it, and then I will offer it to all the rest of you at a big discount?!  Then, we can all be linked in a small way, no matter where we are in the country, and motivate each other.

If you have ideas for a charm or charms to go on the necklace, share those ideas, too!  I really want to be motivated again, and you all help me more than you'll know! 

Thank you so much for who you are and what you do!

  1. How 'bout these words by William Borden, Christian Missionary.... "No reserves. No retreats. No regrets." I LOVE THAT! :)

    1. I've always liked this quote by Norman Vaughan: "Dream big and dare to fail." Makes it seem like a challenge and I'm always up for one of those! :)

  2. So this may be too long for a necklace, but I just like the quote! "Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there" Love you Michelley!!
