Hosting my FIRST official Mug Swap!!!

The rules are simple...

1. Sign up using the below form. Click on the link below to be taken to the form! Open to everyone. International folks included.

2. Sign ups close September 10th and you will receive your partner by the 12th at the very latest. if numbers are un-even I will open for a couple more days!

3. Spend 1-2 weeks chatting with your buddy, getting to know them.

4. Send out a mug to them BY September 30th. The MAX you should spend on the mug is $15. If your buddy is international, then reduce that to $10 MAX to for shipping purposes.

5. I'd love to see your mugs when you get them. Use the hashtag #mamagraymugswap2014 (because apparently mug swapping is a thing and its already got a handful of taken hashtags!)

6. Share it! Make sure to tell your friends about the swap on twitter and IG. I don't twitter, but have at it!

Bear with me.
This is my FIRST EVER swap I'm hosting.
BUT, I will continue it yearly.

I'm hosting this swap as a fun way for people to connect and have fun swapping a mug. However, I can't be held responsible for your partners actions. I like to believe everyone will be fair and only sign up if they intend to swap a mug, but there is always an off chance that someone is dishonest. If you haven't heard from your partner or do not receive a mug, please email me to let me know (lindsaygray7@gmail.com) and I will do the best I can to figure it out!

PLEASE CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP!

Setbacks Over Progress.

Tonight I was going through my phone, looking through old notes I had left myself in my phone. I noticed one from December 31, 2017. It was before 2018 hit us, and 10 days before our world started to turn completely upside down. It was a list of all the good things and accomplishments of 2017. “Became pregnant with our fourth child”. Just like that. I remembered something I’ve been doing a LOT of recently. I’ve caught myself if the good moments, reflecting, but not in a good way. I look at old photos, from before Sadler, or before his pregnancy took a high risk turn, and I just bask in those moments of happiness. I try so hard to remember the happiness i felt in those photos. And just like that, hello guilt. Almost 5 months has passed, and while there is no routine of how grief plays out, you begin to realize patterns and ways of how you deal and cope with all things associated with your grief. But as the time goes on, you start to notice thi...

DIY ok to wake clock!

Recently, I added an "OK to wake" clock in my Amazon shopping cart. Hasting needs help determining when the time is appropriate for him to wake, and when it's appropriate for him to come out of his room. Some days it's normal hours, others, not so much. I need time to myself to start my day. I've been wanting to wake around 6am myself, have time to make (and enjoy) a HOT cup of coffee, meditate, complete some morning yoga, and talk to Jesus. BUT , with a kid thinking it's ok to take over my space at 6am, I haven't been able to even START that sort of routine. A while back a friend had talked about a DIY "ok to wake" clock. Up until now, I had shoved the idea off, and wanted to just buy one because they seemed cooler, lit up, and played cool noises. But, I quickly discovered they're $30. So, I decided since I had all I needed to do the DIY clock, why not give it a whirl first, seeing as I love being thrifty and like saving money and all. So, ...

UnSubscribe

It’s been almost 5 months. Yet I still haven’t been able to fully unsubscribe from all the junk emails from all the hideous baby crap. There is SO MUCH. “Buy one get one, one daily only @ Motherhood!” “25% off at Buy BUY baby” “8 weeks postpartum Lindsay” Mama Natural “Today’s the day! It’s Your due date” — enter in the name of of of the one million baby related websites there are these days. Every time, EVERY SINGLE TIME, I go to check my emails, another one squeezes it’s way in. And when that happens, another very-detailed, very sad memory of a moment has an open window. Letters in the mail. Social security cards. Insurance information. Accidental bills mailed to your address showing every procedure and every dime, and every detail of your dead sons expenses. Will it ever stop? Is there a button for “un-subscribe” for all these constant reminders that your baby is dead. Will my phone EVER forget to auto-correct the words Infant loss, N...
