$50 Gift Card Winner!


Thank you all so much for entering the $50 Outlet Shops of Grand River gift card giveaway!  I had a lot of fun reading through the comments and "meeting" several new friends!



I wish I could give ALL of you a gift card, but unfortunately, that would cost me $1250, and I just can't quite swing that for now.  BUT, if I ever inherit a million dollars, those gift cards are ALL yours!  LOL

And, without any further rambling, the winner is:


JULIE DAVIS
 
Julie, get in touch with me and I'll get your $50 gift card to you ASAP!

Again, that you ALL so much for following me on FB and actually reading my itty-bitty blog!  Keep watching because I hope to have another giveaway before Christmas!

-----------------------------------------------------

I have decided that Disqus officially hates me and is determined to lead me to even more gray hair!  I initially made a detailed list of the contest entrees going by the comments showing up on my blog.  I then went to verify timing of comments, likes, etc, using my e-mail notifications from Disqus.  Well, I was very disturbed to find that for some reason, Disqus had "hidden" 12 of the contest entries.  I have screen shots of my e-mail comments, in order, and I also have screen shots of my Disqus dashboard that show these comments and in what order they were made.  If ANYBODY wants me to send them copies of these to verify the validity of this contest, I will them to you ASAP.  I want to always be honest with all of you and don't want there to ever be a question in your mind that my contest winners were chosen unfairly.

A little computer malfunction.


I promise all of you that my intention today was to do a post about a fabulous opportunity I had Saturday with 16 other fantastic Alabama Bloggers at The Outlet Shops at Grand River in Leeds, Alabama.  I laughed harder than I have in months, thanks to the incredible women that were there.  We had delicious food provided by Olexa's Cafe in Mountain Brook, a informative fashion presentation by Tracy James, a wild and crazy scavenger hunt, and a very productive shopping trip with some great friends, compliments of The Outlet Shops at Grand River.  AND, one of YOU may have the opportunity to have your OWN shopping trip, compliments of The Outlet Shops at Grand River.

BUT

MY STUPID COMPUTER IS BEING A JERK!

For some reason, it has decided that it no longer recognizes my SD card and is re-downloading ALL 2163 photos!!!  This is taking FOREVER! 


Plus, I am at home today with a very sick young man.  He felt puny all day yesterday, but started running a fever last night.  So, I guess we are in for the next few days.  I am proud that he made it until November before missing his first day of school.  He's usually already missed several by this time of year.

 I promise I will do my very, very, very best to have my post up within the next day or so.  One of you will win your very own $50 gift card to The Outlet Shops of Grand River AND since this little glitch happened, I will also throw in a hand-crafted item of mine, of your choice (within reason)!

and I will post when the giveaway goes live!

I hope you all have a fantastic week!!
