Bloggy Giveaway - Starbucks Card


So, I started with WFMW and thought I'd end the day with a bloggy giveaway. I've only recently found this wonderful carnival and thought I'd join in this week. So I'm giving away a $10.00 gift cards for Starbucks.

So leave a comment with the following info:
1. Name (and e-mail if you're not signed in to blogger)
2. What is the biggest obstacle you encounter in your daily life (ie: messy kids, messy husband, small home)

I'll be using a random number generator on Sunday, February 3rd to choose the winner and will be sending out the card on Monday!

I look forward to hearing from you!

UPDATE: The contest is over and the card has been won by "Seven"! Thanks for playing!!!

brooke said...

The biggest obstacle I face in my daily life is working in the family business. I live at my parents' home, and that's where our office is, so there's no escape. Plus, my dad is the type of person that wants to get stuff done as soon as he thinks of it, which means that he'll ask me to look up a receipt at 10:30 pm if he's doing stuff. It's hard to maintain distance without isolating myself from my family by going somewhere else or hiding in my room.

I'm a newly wed...celebrating my first anniversary in March...sometimes communication is the hardest thing I face everyday...still learning and growing...and madly in love with my wonderful husband.

Greta said...

Yesss, I'm the first! Haha, my biggest obstacle is getting up in the morning. Hmmm, I wonder why!

Jenny said...

Starbucks has the perfect choice of drinks for a cold winter's day.

My biggest obstacle that I face daily is that I am raising my 3 month son alone while his daddy is in Iraq. It is a struggle everyday.

michelle said...

My biggest obstacle each day has got to be motivation. As a stay at home mom, sometimes I feel like I live in the move Groundhog Day. I get up, I do the same things each day, I go to bed, and when I wake up, I do it all over again. As routine as my life is, I do love caring for my family and I wouldn't trade it for any other job. I would love to be entered in your drawing.

Great giveaway, thanks! My biggest obstacle is living in a very small apartment with my daughter. I really wish we both had more space. I am thankful that we have a place to live though and that it's safe and clean.

FALANA said...

Missing my sweet Neil. He was my best friend and thought I was the smartest most beautiful person alive.

Anonymous said...

Fun! I think my biggest obstacle is myself. I doom my projects and dreams from the get go by not believing I can make them happen. Mess-wise, my biggest obstacle is my daughter. When she visits, as she recently did, it takes WEEKS to clean up after her once she's gone!

Team Zachary said...

Cool - I think I'm first!! My biggest daily obstacle - trying not to be over obsessive clean freak that I am by NOT cleaning up every toy my son plays with the second his hands leave it! I'm so bad about that - he looks to be done with it, so I immediately put it away. Not good for me, not good for teaching him to clean up after himself, and not good for his creativity either. I've got to be more calm about toys everywhere :-)

Thansk for this great offer! Very kind of you!

My biggest obstacle is CLUTTER! I need to get organized.

Deborah said...

please enter me! biggest obstacle is dealing with my job...not a big fan at the moment

Megan said...

Thank you for this awesome giveaway. I think the biggest obstable I find on a daily basis is that I am not making the time for two things...one is prayer time with God and the other is exercise. They are both on my resolution list, so I am working on it!

Kristen M. said...

Wow, I'm the first. My biggest obstacle is not wasting my day looking at blogs!

Jane O' said...

My husband recently retired. We need a little space from each other to save my sanity, so I could really use this Starbucks card to get him out of the house:)

I would love to win the gc.
My obstacle is dealing with all the issues that my preemie son has and then his daddy on top of that!

First! Wow. Please enter me. I love Starbucks. Thanks!

MrsMomma said...

My biggest obstacle? How about a combination of the three? LOL, no, I guess I'd say trying to divide my time equally between my kiddies and save some time for myself. I homeschool my daughter who is easily distracted and my son is at the age where he wants to show me everything he does while playing. Thanks for offering the Starbucks Card!

My name is Ellen. My biggest obstacle is a messy house and trying to get everything done in the day! Thanks for the awesome giveaway!

Don and Lisa Osborn said...

Yea for Starbucks!!!! Could use some now. Biggest obstacle--oh there are so many...I think it could be lack of organization and the overwhelming feeling that follows as a result...Trying to tackle clutter but probably taking on too much at once.

Thanks for making me think.

Liz Zelie said...

What a generous giveaway - everyone enjoys a good Starbucks gift card even if, like me, they don't drink coffee! I've so enjoyed visiting everyone's blogs this week and realizing how many amazing people there are.

I think the biggest obstacle I encounter everyday is the dishwasher. I swear it is always full, and we have a one glass a day rule. It seems like whenever I go to put something in it, its full...I'm on a bad cycle!

Anonymous said...

Great giveaway! Thanks for offering the Starbucks card. My biggest obstacle to my day some days is my teenage daughter who thinks she knows everything, but really doesn't. She's a good kid, but sometimes very frustrating. So on days when she is being stubborn, she is my biggest obstacle even though I love her to pieces!

Love Starbucks! #1 Daily challenge I run into is getting my two boys up and getting them ready for school! They are 9 & 11 and share a room together! Grrr...they drive me nuts with their playing around and rough-housing when they should be getting dressed, etc.! #2 Would be trying to keep my 4 yr. old daughter's room straighted and that their is a pathway to walk to get to her bed at night (without stepping on something!)! Grrr...that girl is always making messes in her room and is a disaster zone! That Starbucks card would be a nice way for me to escape in peace and energize me to deal with these ongoing issues! What are your two worst issues that you deal with? :-)

Thanks so much for doing this!

My biggest obstacle is my siblings. Not that I don't love them it's just I have a lot of them and they occasionally get on my nerves. :)

Please add me to your list.

KnittinChick said...

My biggest challenge is in my own head-Seriously! I tend to say yes WAY too much and am learning to say no... but I battle some significant guilt.

However, I often take a SB run to leave work and clear my head. You could help me out:-)

The hardest part of my day is being on time. Ever since becoming a mother I usually have something go missing or a child that needs to be changed, go to the potty, anything come up at the last minute that makes me late. Late for work. Late for church.

School

Scarlett said...

The biggest problem I have daily is a messy ME! I have so many books and craft supplies (mostly knitting) that I'm running out of places to keep everything, so it ends up on the floor.

phxbne said...

The biggest obstacle for me is enough energy to get done all I want/need to do. So Starbucks helps!

Chantelle said...

my biggest challenge is def my messy dh lol

Kristen M. said...

I thought I posted a comment already? Anyway, my biggest obstacle would be to not waste my entire day reading blogs.

Wendy said...

My biggest obstacle definitely has to be how to juggle my own daughter and the kids I babysit at home. She gets VERY jealous when I pay any attention to them:(

Lissete said...

Biggest obstacle? First, it's waking up. I have a hard time getting up in the morning :) Then it's messy DH & 1 of my girls. Lets just pile stuff in the sink and see if it magically disappears! No fairy in this house though, I raise heck!

xashee's corner said...

my biggest obstacle is my small place and FOUR dogs lol wouldn't be TOO bad if one of the dogs WASN'T 60lbs & BIG!! LOL i trip over them constantly :D one day they might learn to get out of MY way hehe Thank you soo much for joining in on this FUN giveaway AND for this chance!! Have a GREAT day :D

peg42 said...

Thanks so much for the great giveaway. My biggest problem that I face is getting my sons not to fight. Especially first thing each morning. Thanks again.

Robin said...

Hmmm..how to determine the biggest? LOL I guess finding time. I homeschool my 5 kids, ages 13-1 and finding time to do all I want/need to in a day can be challenging.

Amber said...

School:) What a great idea~ Thanks for entering me:)

Sheila said...

Hi there! My biggest obstacle is too many of all of them, plus messy me! Thanks for counting me in!

Sweetpeas said...

Yum! Starbucks!! The biggest problem in our house is probably my kids' love for "crafts" that means little itty bitty pieces of paper & such all over everything LOL

Amity said...

I love Starbucks...My biggest obstacle...I would say it is the fact that I just can't seem to get an order to my day (i.e.routine, schedule)

Celeste said...

My biggest obstacle is being patient with my two toddlers, for sure!

Tyna said...

My # 1 obstacle currently is being VERY pregnant and just way to tired and sore to do anything!

windycindy said...

Hi, Nice giveaway! I think taking care and worrying about my 89 year old dad. It is not an obstacle and I am glad he is in our lives. Mostly, I worry about his safety and such. Thanks,Cindi

Minty Fresh said...

My biggest obstacle is my messy desk! I can never seem to keep it clean!

Jes said...

count me in please! the biggest obstacle I encounter is probably my small apartment. We don't have enough space for everything so it gets messy very easily.

Chelsea said...

Hiya,

Welcome to the blogging world! I think my biggest obstacle during the day is keeping myself active enough AFTER work so I don't just sit around the house and watch tv (no kids yet) and actually do some housework. This usually means I just need to do some light cleaning and pick up my crafting/sewing messes, but still, one of my biggest challenges. Oh, that and finding the motivation to workout and be healthy...something I haven't quite mastered yet.

Tracy DeLuca said...

I think my biggest obstacle is that no one seems to think they need to help out around the house. My teen and my hubby would not be bothered if the house was a trash heap! LOL... so it is either do it myself or nag all day and night. Great giveaway!

Zaankali said...

teenagers. please count me in.
smiles!

Ms Moore said...

Hi!

I think my biggest obstacle is not my messy husband - but my messy self. I get so distracted - and things like doing the dishes seem so minor (doesn't help that the messy husband encourages this: "don't worry-they'll be there tomorrow).

Thanks - Sarah

Sharon said...

Can I list all of those? Nah, I'll go with small house.

Hillary (Mrs. Einstein) said...

Yea Starbucks! My biggest obstacle? An almost-4-year-old girl who's going on 13. What an attitude she can have sometimes!

Gretchen said...

I'm giving this one, too. :)

My biggest obstacle is myself and not getting off this computer when I need to get busy. :) This has been fun, but luckily for my family, it only happens a couple of times a year. The blog-hopping is addicting.

Blessings.

Holladay Family said...

My biggest problem is my husband and my children don't clean up after themselves. It is really hard to pick up after 5 people and have no one care to help me. I feel like living this way so they WANT to do something about it. Oh, the life! Starbucks would at least reward ME for doing stuff for everyone else all the time! Thank you for you having such a generous giveaway! I would LOVE to win!

biggest obstacle... not enough storage! I live in a decent sized apartment, but whoever designed it thought it would be a good idea to have an eat-in kitchen as well as a dining area so half my kitchen has no cabinets. Very frustrating. I love starbucks, I'd love to win (:

Ananga-manjari said...

Katie said...

Oh hi!
1. Katie K.
2. We're first time homeowners so didn't realize how terribly our house is laid out for children. Great when they want to run in circles but awful when we're trying to have one/both of them asleep. We struggle with this all day every day because someone always needs to be sleeping.

Heather said...

Hmmm, I'd say right now my biggest struggle is that I have fallen back into some not exactly healthy eating habits and I can't seem to find the strength/willpower/motivation to turn the tide. I know the hardest part is just getting started, after that it gets easier by the day.

After being a stay at home mom for many years (now an empty nester) I find that the biggest obstacle I face most days is having to get ready for work. If I could just go from eating breakfast to being at work it would be a whole lot better. Maybe a little Starbucks would help.

Love Starbucks.

My obstacle is really making sure to keep a positive perspective, I need Christ daily.

JoAnn said...

My biggest obstacle is my own tendency to get distracted. I can start doing something and it will never get done because I saw or thought of something and off I went. Then I see or think something else and the cycle continues until I'm frantically trying to get the most important things done and leaving the rest for tomorrow.

Angela S said...

My biggest obstacle is probably my depression. I've been blessed to find a great doctor who's helped me fined the right medication balance. Its been a crappy health year but I like to hope we're on the upside now. Regardless its the sweet things in life like blogs, the internet, friends and my family that make each day so great! Thanks for offering.

My biggest obstacle is actually getting up in the morning. I have tried to get up early, then I am in a bad mood all day. So everyone encourages me to sleep in

My biggest obstacle is not having enough "me" time. I'd like to have more time to relax.

My husband is a flight attendant so my biggest obstacle is him being gone for so long. I feel like a single parent some times.

I think my biggest obstacle in daily life is getting my priorities straight... determing which thing (or person) needs me the most... it tough

My biggest obstacle each day is ME. I cannot seem to get organized (so I'm really signing up for the organization items that are being given away). If I were more organized, my life would be so much easier. I know it would.

My biggest obstacle is that we are all LAZY. We leave things lying around instead of putting them back in their place ASAP.!!! I hate that! Thanks for the chance to enter your drawing!!

Londa said...

Biggest obstacle? I would have to say getting everything in order... I keep hoping that one day everything will have a place in our home so that we can run like clockwork and have more quality free time to be together as a family. Right now, I just do well to get a shower in the morning with two little ones running around and one due end of the month!

Yum Starbucks! I guess one of my biggest obstacles in my everyday life is just getting the day started. I know that when I get going earlier, I get more accomplished and it's all good. Otherwise, I feel like i waste so much time.

Evelyn said...

My biggest obstacle in daily life is laziness ... pure and simple. I waste more time and it is sad ... I have all this time to myself and I don't feel like I am productive at all. If I win, I could be lazy with a starbucks latte in hand ... lol. Thanks for offering a chance to win a great prize.

My biggest daily encounter is staying focused as I seem to get sidetracked quite easily. Please count me in! Thanks ~ :)

Hey, I'm Heather.
My biggest obstacle would be the enormous amount of stupid paper in the house. It must leave.
Thanks for the giveaway!

My biggest obstacle each day is finding the time to get to everything that needs to be done. I have 4 children (homeschooling 3 of them) and 1 on the way, so things are very busy!

Liz said...

My biggest obstacle is trying to keep the house picked up because we have a very small house and their is just not room for everything! My son's playroom is our living room so it is always covered in stuff! But I am thankful to have a house and a beautiful son!

Julie said...

Not enough time!

Thanks so much!
