We Get By With A Little Help From Our Friends

First and foremost, we want to give a big, loud, exuberant shout out to all of our friends for reading our lil’ blog in its very first year of existence.  As Steph pointed out in her “See Ya, 2010!” post (one of my all time faves thus far – way to go, Stooph!), 2010 was the year we gave birth to the chubby baby with fat rolls we call Covet Living.

And aside from really just wanting to say thank you (!) for the time you’ve spent perusing our bloggy blog and commenting on all of our various musings, we also wanted to make sure you knew how to subscribe to our RSS Feed.  What in Sam Pickens does this mean?  Well, it’s this simple technology that emails you updates as soon as we’ve posted.  And since we’re all about simplifying our lives…

Here’s how you subscribe:

Just click on that pretty little orange “Subscribe via RSS” link on the upper right side of the page.

This re-directs you to a page where you’ll click on “Subscribe in Mail” on the right hand column.

Then, you’ll get an email asking you to verify your wanting to be a fan of the page.

It’s as simple as that, and ensures you’ll never miss out on a new post from us broads ever again!!!

Lastly – and we can take it cause we’re Ram Tough – we’d love to hear any of your comments on the look and feel of the site.  We’re just a few months old, but we want to make the blog as fun and easy to read as possible for all y’all.

(Goooooo COVET LIVING!  PS why is Steph so tan in this pic?  She was in INDIANA for crikey sake)

Have a great day!

xoxo,


Home For The Holidays: Merry Christmas!

(via)

Part of the joy of cyberstalking people on Facebook this holiday season has been reading everyone’s plans for the holidays.  One acquaintance is skiing down man made slopes in Dubai; another, snuggling in LA with her brand new bundle of joy. Meanwhile, our gaggle of Hoosier folk are all in the homeland trying to survive the brutal winter weather and congregating at the Locker Room (what up Hoosiers???!!!)

And what about us dames at Covet Living?  Well, Stephanie has been precariously assembling holiday gifts of moonshine for family and friends, trying not to pass out from inhaling grain alcohol…

…while visiting with her lovely, hysterically funny fam.  Ohhh hello Ruth and Bud!!!

Karrie is in sunny Florida.  She is delighting in family time as well, partaking in lively debate with relatives on subjects like vajazzling and The Big Lebowski.  It’s the simple things, really.

On this Christmas day, wherever you are, we hope you’re with those you love the most.  And might we suggest giving them a great, big ol’ hug.  Have a wonderful day today, people!!!

“I will honour Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year. I will live in the Past, the Present, and the Future. The Spirits of all Three shall strive within me. I will not shut out the lessons that they teach.” – Charles Dickens

Merry Christmas, everyone!
