What Julie Leto had to say on Friday, July 18th, 2008
Sorry this post is late going up…I’ll blame the aftereffects of the anesthesia (how long can I milk that for anyway??)
Today’s winner (just post a comment!) will receive the following summer treat from Bath & Body Works!
It’s been raining like crazy in Florida all week, so I thought this “Rain-Kissed leaves” collection looked fabulous. And I don’t know about you, but I could have used that bath strap to wash my back when twisting and turning wasn’t an easy thing to do! Just post a comment and we’ll announce the winner on Sunday! Good luck!
By all reports, Julie Leto was a sweet child once, somewhat shy, preferring to play quietly in her room making up stories. However, being raised with three brothers in a loud, primarily Italian household did have its influences and Julie discovered her inner tough girl. That’s probably why most of her heroines kick serious butt. Writing sassy heroines has worked out, as she’s sold nearly thirty books to three publishers featuring strong, confident women. Julie lives in Florida with her husband, daughter, spoiled dachshund, enormous guinea pig and a wide range of relatives all within driving distance.

I am still using the same excuse too.
Off to drive home for my HS class reunion this weekend.
After 4 hours of sleep.
Let me just say, RUN, do not walk to the theather to see The Dark Knight.
OH. MY. GOD.

Love the prize!
Wishing you and everyone a happy and safe week-end

Well, I hope you’re feeling better, at least. This stuff looks great, though I have to be careful what I use (hypersensitive since diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis). If I win it, I will be giving it to my daughter, who absolutely loves Bath and Body Works!

As my friends in Florida reminded me yesterday, it rains there from May until November. When I was there in April, I drove through a monsoon so I’ll add another month. :wink: It’s just
here so I’d take some rain in any form. Now all I have to do is finish rebuilding the shower in the master bath so I can enjoy the prize if I win.
Have I mentioned that the Plot Monkeys rock! And are so generous to boot! (Naw. Not sucking up. Not at all…. :angel7: )
Well back to my own :monkee2: Have a great TGIF all!

I love B&BW products but affording them is another story. Rain is something we need here but I’m afraid we may be looking at too much rain if that area of disturbed weather off the northern South American coast heads the way most predictors are predicting.
Comment
Great prize!

Oooooo, Love Bath and Body Works! :wub:

Hi everyone! My husband and I are trying to decide what to do about our refrigerator. The freezer part is working but the refrigerator part isn’t cooling very well. The guy we had to come look at us gave us our money back and said “good luck” because he couldn’t figure out what the problem was. I had to call the company that makes it and hope they can fix it for us this week. It’s just awful when you can’t put much in the refrigerator and have a four year old who always wants milk. I hope you all have a great weekend.

Fabulous prize. I think most people who haven’t been to Florida would be surprised to find out it rains in the summer almost everyday. I was when we moved here. In Seattle our grass in green in the winter and brown in the summer and it is the complete opposite here in Florida it is green in the summer and brown in the winter. Have a great weekend :monkey

It’s been raining like mad here too! Enjoy your weekend :)
