My Friday Five: Discoveries, Weight Loss, and Jewelry Sale!

We'll get there ;)

Happy Friday, and Happy 4th, you guys! I hope you all are having a great start to the weekend. I've definitely been a lot better, so here's hoping the end of this long weekend will bring some improvements in the health department... Meanwhile, here's my 5:

1~ While I've had a very hard week with health problems, I am thrilled to have discovered a new blog that did a really good job distracting me if just for a few minutes: Abbie's guest post on 34 Magnolia Street (another of my favorite blogs) was just amazing--so I of course had to take a look at her blog. And "Step One" is one of my favorite posts of hers so far, which actually builds on something I mentioned in my post on Wednesday. You've got to check out her blog--I can't wait to see more from her!

2~ And speaking of Wednesday's post, if you haven't gotten a chance to read it, please do. I've been wanting to tell you guys about my weight loss really for months now and finally got a chance to. Anyone can do what I did to lose whatever weight you might need to!

3~ Did you see the giveaway I'm having over at Elizabeth's blog? You can win the piece of your choice from my Military Sweetheart Collection! Whether you've got a significant other in the military or just love camo or patriotic colors, this giveaway is for you! It ends July 8th, so don't miss out--you can enter below!

4~ Speaking of my jewelry, I wanted to let you guys know about a huge sale I'm having--actually my biggest yet! You might have gathered that medical bills are leaving funds hard to find around these parts, so you can get 30% off in my Etsy shop with coupon code Summertime30! When is it good till? I don't know--I guess until I start running low on inventory? ;) And I've been adding so many new pieces to my shop, so please take a look! I would love for you to find something you love, and also share this sale with your friends!! :)

5~ Have any of you had issues commenting on my blog lately? I've had one reader let me know that they have, and I've had only one issue with the comment system here myself recently, so please let me know if you have too! If there is indeed a problem, I have no idea how I'd fix it, but I'd really like to know if this is an ongoing issue!

Don't forget to enter the giveaway, and also take advantage of that huge sale in my Etsy shop! Have a wonderful weekend!
