Two years- two years I’ve been doing a Sunday Evening Post, though some, including this one of have come on Monday morning. It’s actually often my favorite post of the week, where I let my readers know what’s been going on in my life and hold myself accountable for my goals. (See the first Sunday Evening Post, from July 24, 2011)

But two years is a long time in the blogging world, and we all need to change. I’ll be honest, I don’t know how the Sunday Evening post is going to change. I just know that with my “new” life, it needs to. I need to work on finding a balance that allows me time to write (fiction and blogs), do my best at my new job, and take the time to enjoy being a mom.

I’m still learning, still figuring it out. Today is the start of my 4^th week on the job, and we’re almost at 3 months of being parents. It’s new. I’m still figuring out the best way to settle in. Which means I’m still trying to figure out how Sunday Evening Posts, or maybe even Monday Morning Posts, will figure into my new world.

Truth is, there’s a lot in my new world I need to figure out- including whether some of the goals I have been tracking for this year are still reasonable goals. And the budget stuff is mostly out the window. I need to sit down and figure out a new budget that takes into account spending on the kid and a few other things. But I likely won’t know what my regular paychecks will look like until my 3^rd one- so a month from now.

My world is a little crazy. It’s a little upside down. But I am also loving it. I am exactly where I want to be both career and family wise right now. In fact, sometimes it seems a little too perfect (until I remember that I’m out of the house 12 hours every week day, and I’m averaging less than 6 hours of sleep on weeknights).

So to celebrate two years of “Sunday Evening Posts” and my new life, I’m doing a give-away.

The winner will get a $52 Amazon.com gift card for themselves, and in addition, I will then donate another $52, in their name, to a cause of their choice from the Greater Good networks or at Watsi.

If I get over 100 entries, I’ll donate another $52 to the cause with the most votes in the poll located in the sidebar to your right.

You have one week to enter and vote. Good luck!
