Please welcome, Adrian, one of our original followers as our special guest today. Adrian (of Adrian’s Crazy Life) has been around almost since SITS inception, and she’s a model SITstah. She roll calls (and has for years), she proudly displays her SITS button, she attends Bloggy Boot Camps, she comments on others blogs like a champion…..and she’s just an all around good person. We appreciate all that Adrian shares with our community and hope that you take the time to get to know her.
Tell us about your blog. What can readers expect when they visit?
Adrian’s Crazy Life is just that, bits and piece of my crazy life – my job, my 3 fabulous boys, my papercrafting business, my 4 grandkids, the whole enchilada. I’m always going 90 miles an hour with my hair on fire, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.
What is your ultimate goal for your blog?
I think I just like to give advice, so I indulge that by putting up weekly posts on decluttering your home and getting your finances together. I’m a radically out-of-the-box thinker, so I tend to come up with some unique angles on these subjects.
You are a long time SITStah. What have you taken away from SITS over the years?
It’s kind of like Cheers. It’s the place where everyone knows your name. Its where I go when I want support, friendship, information, prizes, validation. It’s the whole enchilada.
I know that you have attended a few blogging conferences. Would you recommend attending them to others?
Yes, absolutely! I’ve been to three of the SITS girls conferences and several others besides. I’m practically addicted. They are such a great source of information, networking, and friendship, plus you get a fun weekend with your girlfriends – what could be better?

Awww, thanks ladies! All your sweet comments make my heart sing. I was so excited, I came over here at 12:05AM and kept hitting refresh. I’m like the lady in the Mervyn’s commercial – Open, open, open! And I took the whole day off of work (gasp) so I could hang around and WALLOW in my special day!
Now THAT’S how to enjoy your SITS day!

I roll call and visit blogs, but I doubt I’ll ever be able to attend any blogging conferences. Any money I had for things like that would have to go to writing conferences. But other than that, I’ll be as faithful a SITStah as I can be!
