Thanks for all your great suggestions for this post!
I loved all your ideas.
I especially loved sharing my 100 favorite photos or photos of 100 of my favorite things.
Fabulous idea.
Have you ever tried to upload more than 4 photos on blogger?
Exactly.
That my friends is. not. happening.
I also loved the idea of a 10x 10.
Ten things about ten different subjects.
Another great idea.
I had a hard time coming up with the subjects.
Pathetic...I know.
So...I am going with 100 random things about me.
I know what you are thinking.
There is more?

One of my many favorite things about you that you omitted was:
You love to bake things in odd numbers, three's, five's so that you can share them with friends in need like me! Your bloggers should know that you have a generosity gene that is rarely seen these days. One day maybe I'll learn your secret for being able to squeeze one more thing like that into your oh-so-busy days.
Happy vacation to all!
Love,
Snowbird
Congrats on your 100th post!! I can't imagine doing laundry for 5...I feel like I do laundry all the time for just 2!! I love NC as well, and you definitely live in one of the best, if not the best, places in NC! Have a great time on vacation!!~

Love you 100! And, I can't believe you did it in an hour! Mine took days!
We're going to miss you! Do you have any more Christmas surprises up your sleeves? Have a great time!
You're going on vacation and only just mentioned it? Does that mean more random Christmassy posts?
Loved your 100. Though I am slightly baffled as to how I got to 100 before you. Clearly my addiction is worse than I actually imagined.
Wendi-
I'm Leah's friend. I love your blog. I look at it all the time. Your 100th post was great.
Have a wonderful vacation.
Very cool! Your blog is cute!
Happy 100th, Wendi! I loved learning all of these things about you! We have a lot in common.
And ya know what? Your house sounds like so much fun!!
You and I are kindred spirits in so many ways...through so much of this I was nodding my head, agreeing.
The sitemeter thing made me laugh. I was the same way. Then one day for some weird reason, it just disappeared from my blog. I still haven't figured out how. I never put it back. Its better for me that way.
Oh, and LOVE your new look! Fabulous!
Happy 100th!! Wow, I've got some catching up to do! I never realized that you and I were so much alike. As I was reading, I kept thinking, "Yes, this is me, yes, yes, I do that, too..." Great minds think alike, huh!? Have a great vacation. I'm jealous...
congrats on the 100th post! And like the new look of the blog!
You are more than welcome to come organize this crazy house anytime! I also have a crap load of laundry you can do too! Just ask!
