Welcome World - It's my SITS Day!

Apparently it's not an Urban Legend.
SITS Days really do happen! And here it is, happening to me. (Or at least it will be once it gets to be Monday in America!)

For those of you in the dark wondering what the heck I am on about, SITS is a fab Blog network with the idea of comment support. You sign up, meet new bloggers, leave comments... and wait for your turn for a SITS Day. 

A SITS Day is a wonderful thing. Lovely SITSah bloggers visit you from around the world leaving you lots of commenty love. Your tiny little blog down under gets exposed to a wider audience. Your inbox overflows. Your followers expand *hint hint*

{here's the SITS Post About Me...}
So here we are! My very own Moment in the Spotlight.


I'd better make the most of it... *ahem*

Welcome!

Let me introduce myself...
I am Simone, living in a three-ring circus.
Mother to three clowns, married to the Ringmaster. Life is a Rollercoaster, sometimes fun, sometimes you want to scream. Or hurl. But here we are.
You can read more about our nutty bunch here...

When I heard you were all coming I did a bit of tidying up, getting things ready for your visit (after I screamed and did a little happy dance, that is).

I worked on my pages; made sure you could find my Best Posts, my Tips & How To's, Parenting Stuff, my introduction to New Zealand and all the rest.

I'm coming to you from Auckland, New Zealand; a tiny island nation tucked away at the bottom of the South Pacific. Small but beautifully formed, as they say. Read more about our slice of paradise here...

I think there's something for everyone here.
I'm party mad. So there's stacks of party ideas. I even have a Party Linky so you can link up your party posts. It's open all year round.

I'm a blogaholic and love making blogs pretty. Do you like my home-made design? I share my blogging tips with you here.

I love meeting bloggers In Real Life; I'm yet to meet one I didn't like. Luv the blog, luv the blogger, I say. I've got a linky for Real Life Bloggy Hookups: You can link up here.

I'm not crafty, but I am creative. So I share my lazy easy shortcut tricks on making cute stuff here...
I am mother to three firecrackers; not a librarian among them. My parenting stories are here...
I'm a lazy cook - so my favourite recipes are tried and true and easy to do! My daughter is gluten intolerant so there's even an allergy section. You'll find my recipes on this page...

But in case you might be mistakenly thinking that I am some kind of put-together SuperMum, you should see my washing pile. My unwashed dishes. Or check out my Depression and Me page. I battle the black dog. This blog is one way I keep him at bay. You'll find my posts on that and how my faith gets me through here...

If that wasn't enough I'm also a ravenous reader. My bookish alter-ego Mrs Readalot has started a Bloggy Book Club. You can read about that and join in here...

Phew.
Have I done enough for a comment? Or a follow??! Go on. It won't hurt a bit!
I hope you enjoy exploring my little corner of the blog-world.
enjoy!
♥

{PS Since today is already Monday in New Zealand and I have no idea what time Monday is in the States or when my guests will be arriving, I'm posting this early, just in case. I like to be ready when company's coming. Gee I'm really hoping for some new followers. Do you think they'll like me? Shhh, Simone, your insecurities are showing. Snap out of it and make a pot of tea. *smile*}


PPS: Hello Lovely SITSahs! You have arrived! Now somebody asked me in a comment, how many new followers so far? Well, before my SITS day I had 361. So you do the Math. Wanna help me make it past 400??? That would be sooooo great. :)
