HGTV Dream Home 2013 - Clue!

I'm excited and inspired by the winner of the HGTV Dream Home 2012!  She mentioned entering the sweepstakes every day, twice for an entire year!  Alright, that's it!

The picture above is the first clue from HGTV as to the possible location of the 2013 Dream Home.  It's looking pretty beachy and I'm very excited.  Let's make an effort to enter the sweepstakes everyday this year!

What's the Malware Pop-Up from Blogger All About?

I'm not 100% why, but Blogger keeps popping up this menacing looking window that talks about malware from one of the blogs I follow.  I can't fathom that they send out malware, so I just proceeded to my site and theirs too!  Hopefully my computer doesn't crash now...

Has anyone been seeing this with other Blogger/Blogspot blogs they visit?

ETA: I think one of the blogs that I follow in my Fav Blogs list was "known to distribute malware" - so I just unfollowed it.  Hopefully that fixes the problem!

Thank you to the lenders, escrow officers, title reps, home inspectors, termite inspectors, contractors, and cooperating agents. Let's make 2012 even better than 2011!
