Ok, so it's just two rules, but still.
Rule #1: You have to post at least once before March 1 or you are officially kicked out of the sitting room.
Rule #2: You have to post about something other than a birthday, anniversay, upcoming plans, or your cousin's wedding. We need to take our blog back to the good old days when our page was full of "would you rathers" and "what is your favorite cereal".
Thanks to Lars for getting us started. :)
