Blogging Birthday Gifts Winners
By
Finally, after a week of fun and great conversation on this site and then a jam-packed social weekend for my family and myself, I am ready to announce the winners of my blogging birthday gifts. There were 80 entrants and 13 prizes to be given away – those are pretty good odds, if I do say so myself. I used Mrs. Glosser’s Math Goodies Random Number generator to draw the numbers for each prize.
Drumroll please…

Fantastic, Char!
I’m a big fan of Liz and her Successful Blog, so to have the opportunity to guest post there is a great prize. I’ll have to get in touch with Liz.
There should be a copy of Lorelle’s book winging its way across the Atlantic after I ordered it last week. Looking forward reading it!
Off-topic, did you remove the ‘subscribe to comments’ plugin? I was looking for the little check box but can’t remember if it was here before. That plugin is the first I’d install on any new blog (providing comments are open of course).

Randa – I think you will have fun with it!
David – I was so excited when I saw your number come up for the guest post. You will do a great job and can have some fun with that.
I did remove subscribe to comments because the old version didn’t work when I redid my site. I have the newer version – thanks for the nudge to get it added back in!

Hey, wow, it’s nice to win a prize once in a while! Imagine getting a gift for something you enjoy doing with lots of passion! Like having a blog, and surfing outher blog sites… Isn’t that the reason why we have blogs in the first place?

Congrats, Gabriel! Char, I’ll send the book within the next few days – I’m bogged down with a major project.

Wonderful and what great winners! I’m just finishing up a big road trip as part of my work and I’ll fire off that autographed copy as soon as I get back to the farm. So exciting! Congrats all.

Yep, let’s face it: you’re a peach!
Cheers!

From Glenda Watson Hyatt’s teaser, I could tell that the book is more than inspiring.
