Countdown to Surgery Giveaway #2 Avon Organic Cottom Chemise Size LARGE AND Water Bottle too!


Please note: I only have a size Large for the giveaway

I have been lucky to win a few things made of organic cotton for my grandson and I just can't get over how soft it is! So when I saw that Avon had a Liiv Botanicals Chemise made of organic cotton I just KNEW I had to get one for my readers! Unfortunately, I was only able to get the size LARGE at the time, so I am hoping that some of you will enter to win this very comfy looking chemise. (I am hoping it is super soft too, I haven't taken it out of the package to check but it looks pretty nice in the photo above)Plus, you will get a water bottle to go with it as well! Now THAT is drinking water in style.

When I am recovering from my surgery, I will most likely be in sweats and a long tee shirt, definitely not something so pretty as this. But one of you can win it just by leaving me a comment below-

Giveaway starts today and ends September 29th at 11:59 PM EST. Winner chosen by Random.org and has 72 hours to reply to my email or another winner will be chosen. Be sure to leave a way to contact you in your comment or via your blog. I will ship to US and CANADA, so this giveaway is open to residents of those countries only.

For your first mandatory entry, just leave me a comment. It really can be anything at all, I will have fun reading them as I am recovering.

Other optional entries:

Be a blog follower +1 entry
Be a Twitter follower and tweet about the giveaway (leave a link in comment) +1 entry
Add my button to your sidebar & let me know for +3 entries
Blog about this giveaway & leave a link to your post +5 entries

Good luck!

This Chemise does look nice. We use a lot of water bottles in our home (4 kids). And, they're constantly getting broken. It would be nice to have one all to myself (like that ever happens) Well wishes for your surgery...

My surgery last year was unexpected (I was taken to the emergency room at 1 AM and had 2 procedures within 24 hrs.)

While recovering at home the walls started bothering me. How on earth do walls get so dirty way up there? And what's that on the ceiling? Oh my...how long has this pillow been this threadbare! No wonder Grandma looks so disappointed when she visits. The room would work so much better if the furniture was arranged differently. Cabin fever? A little. And unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how you look at it) I was on strict no lifting more than 5 lbs orders from the doctor. I did alphabetize the movies and music, though.

I hope your surgery and recovery are smooth if not "Happy!"

Nikki57 said...

Ohh so cute! Good luck!

TX_Jen34 said...

Good thing I'm a large! Good luck with your surgery. I hope you heal fast. Last year at this time I was recovering from knee surgery, so I know how boring it can be! I hope you have some good things you can do while you are healing.

This chemise is so pretty and organic cotton should ensure that it's soft. I think sweats and a tee are "comfort clothes". Best of luck with your surgery.

I hope your surgery goes well and you have a fast recovery. I got the funniest get well card a few weeks ago. It featured the Grumpy Lady and it said: "Feed a cold, Starve a fever, Moon a neighbor. What ever makes you feel good." Isn't that funny!

Hi Michele! First, I want to say I hope all went well with your surgery, and that you are recouperating okay now. I am sending well wishes your way!

Also, thank you for hosting such a wonderful giveway. I have been on a passionate green journey ever since we rang 2009 in on New Years! It has been a fun and interesting new path to green up our act and we have made so many changes to our life, the products we use and the way that we live it to become a greener household.

The reason your giveaway caught my eye is I can really use another personal hydration vessel, as we are no longer using bottled water in our house, this is quite an achievement since we used to go through cases of it every month! I feel it is helping to contribute to saving our earth!

I also would love a nice soft warm natural chemise, I mean what woman wouldn't! But one thing I have not done is replace items in my wardrobe with natural cotton and bamboo materials, and this would be a start in the right direction for achieving that aspect of going green!

Thanks so much for the chance to enter!

Good luck during your recovery. I love how the water bottle isn't too bright so I could carry it anywhere without it standing out.

Two Bees
Bad pun alert. :-)

- - -

Two bees met in a field. One said to the other, "How are things going?"

"Really bad," said the second bee. "The weather has been cold, wet and damp, and there aren't any flowers, so I can't make honey."


"No problem," said the first bee, "Just fly down five blocks and turn left. Keep going until you see all the cars. There's a Bar Mitzvah going on and there are all kinds of fresh flowers and fresh fruit."

"Thanks for the tip!" said the second bee, and flew away. A few hours later the two bees ran into each other again.

The first bee asked, "How'd it go?"

"Great!" said the second bee. "It was everything you said it would be. There was plenty of fruit and, oh, such huge floral arrangements on every table! I made my quota easily."

"Uh, what's that thing on your head?" asked the first bee.

"That's my yarmulke," said the second bee. "I didn't want them to think I was a wasp."

Maybe this will make you chuckle. I have two O's in my last name, and this morning I was so frazzled by my sick baby that while spelling my name to someone I said "zero" both times instead. I realized afterward but the damage was done - they thought I was weird.
