Gavin DeGraw

It's been awhile but I'm back. I forgot my password...silly me. Took a nice little trip to San Francisco with the family, did Six Flags (which was hotter than hell) and the Zoo (where I froze my behind off).

Today I'm adding the brand new Gavin DeGraw widget! I can listen to the entire "Free" CD while I post on my blog.

MONDAY!

Hey, hope you had a great weekend. I was landscaping in 93+ degree weather. Not very fun - did wonders for the tan though.

Swagbucks - scored 8 on Mega Swagbucks Friday, 1 on Saturday, none on Sunday and 1 today so far. I've been running around today so I just haven't had time. I missed the swag code by 12 mins.

Instead of talking about Keith Urban (I got a lovely voicemail message from him Sat.) I'm gonna talk about Gavin DeGraw.

In case you haven't heard of him before (you must be from another planet if you haven't heard of him) his biggest hits are "I Don't Want to Be", which is the theme song for One Tree Hill, "Chariot" and "In Love With A Girl". All three of those songs are great. Chariot is the song that got me hooked so to speak. But, after doing a little web surfing, this man is fantastic. Go on YouTube and type in Gavin DeGraw "Against All Odds". It's only an audio track but Gavin is singing this in front of Phil Collins himself. If that doesn't get you type in GDG "Tracks of My Tears" or "Hallelujah". All great covers. His new CD "Free" (came out March 09) has a song called "Dancing Shoes" that just makes me melt.

That's it for now. Check out Gavin and let me know what you think!

A Couple of Things today!

First, I just finished watching CMT's Stacked - a full 30 minutes of nothing but Keith Urban old and new videos. What a way to start my day! What's really funny is that he has the same haircut now in Kiss A Girl that he had in Blacktop. He should really go back to the Somebody Like you hair do. Personally, I think it suits him way better.

Onto Swagbucks. Today is Mega Swag Bucks Day! Every Friday they give up to 10,000 Swag Bucks in Mega Bills to help start your weekend off right. While searching for my OWN blog I scored 1 Swagbuck - Sweet!

I'm saving up for the PS3 for my 11 year old son. I have no Swag Friends so I created this blog to find some!!

This link: http://www.swagbucks.com/?cmd=gn-s1-swagCode explains how Swagbucks works. I've been doing it about a month now. I have 93 Swagbucks and have never been asked for anything other than my email address. It's not a scam but it is highly addictive. If you have any questions send me an email, if you want to sign up use my link today and you'll start off with 5 swagbucks (after today you'll start off with 3 swagbucks) http://swagbucks.com/refer/MrsHoj

Okay, let's start off with Keith Urban today. I've been a fan of his for a number of years now. I heard of him in The Ranch but never really paid attention until "You'll Think of Me".

Just noticed an artice that came out yesterday:

Universal Music Publishing Group Signs Exclusive Worldwide Publishing Deal With 2X GRAMMY(R) Award-Winner Keith Urban

Interesting, to say the least.

Swagbucks, Keith Urban and Life

Greetings!

I'm brand new to blogging, I've read a lot of blogs and thought I'd give it a go.

I'm a married stay at home mom to three beautiful boys. I have some time on my hands and thought I'd write about some fun things.

Let's start with Swagbucks. If you've never heard of it here's a little teaser for ya:

Swagbucks.com

1. Search the web (like you normally do)
2. Earn (Swagbucks baby!)
3. Redeem (for great prizes, Amazon Gift Cards, PayPal Cards, iPods, PSP, PS3, Games, trading cards, music, etc.)

Sounds easy right? Yes, it is the easiest thing in the world
