…but at least this time I stopped short of wetting my pants.
Yesterday was bitterly cold in our neck of the woods, especially when you consider I live in the South. Wind chill drove the "feeling temperature" to the teens.
You can imagine how thrilled I was to attend my son's evening soccer game; it had me thinking soccer and football needed to change seasons.
Layered like "The Princess and the Pea's" mattress, my daughter's car blanket in hand, I was as prepared as I could be for weathering the elements.
I wasn't prepared for the text (via twitter) I received from Barbara Jones, founder of the amazing One2One Network (that, if you're a woman, you must join if you haven't already!):
"Hold on to your seat. U R not going to believe this but you just WON
the Artisan 800 printer in the O2O giveaway…no joke..fair &
square!!"
After that good news, I barely noticed the icicles dangling off my nose.
I am curious, though…have YOU ever won anything during Bloggy Giveaways or through some other venue on the interweb? Do tell about your good fortune :).
(Thank you One2One, thank you Barbara…you couldn't have drawn a more grateful person's name out of the hat!)
Congratulations! I entered a SV Moms contest to try and win one of those. They just seem amazing.
Goodness Gracious, Lucky Ducky!!
CONGRATSU!
Wow. That is awesome. But it’s no bag of nuts and a t-shirt. : )
Oh wow! That’s amazing, Robin! I’m so happy for you because you seemed to be coveting it . . . I mean, wanting it . . . like crazy! So glad you won! We’re expecting even bigger and better things from you now.
Hey, congratulations!
Now you can print out all those great photos you take with your Nikon D40, frame them, and hang them up in an available hallway to create the Robin Pensieve Gallery.
Be sure to let us know the gallery’s hours of operation so we can stop by to admire your work. And don’t forget – all the really cool galleries serve fancy hors d’oeuvres and tasty beverages.
Woot!!! Excitement! 😀 I’m happy for you.
Congratulations! That is so awesome!
Alli, Good luck!!!!
Thanks, SAM :).
Julie, {{giggles}} 😉
Shoot, Shelly…DON’T PUT PRESSURE ON ME!! I’ll cave! 🙂
Stephen, hmmm, you’ve given me an idea. Those photos can be sold at AUCTION! Sotheby’s???
Thanks Heather & Carrie :).
HOW FUN!! YAY!
WOW! Where’d you win it from? Was O2O doing their own giveaway too? Just curious. But totally happy I don’t have to rig my giveaway for you to win now. 😉 LOL
Good things happen to good people. This validates how I’ve long felt.
My stroke of good fortune? Um, first I won the lottery when a 16-year-old girl saw me from afar and decided I was the one.
But more conventionally, I won a killer HP laptop at a conference in Shanghai last year. Since then, it’s become an extension of my writer’s existence.
May your new MFD be a similar extension of your own creativity.
Congratulations! Very awesome news indeed. Let’s see, I’ve won a Starbucks card, a re-usable tote, a tea infuser and two of the Chex Indulgence baskets that everyone was giving away.
