Winner Announced in Contest


We have a winner. Out of 56 comments, I've chosen one. Every comment was cut and folded and placed in a basket. And the winner is . . . drum roll here . . .

RUSSELL


Congratulations, Russell! Please e-mail me at katydid56@gmail.com to claim your framed print. I'll need your address to ship it to you.

I want to thank everyone for entering this contest by telling me what makes you happy. And from your comments, I see that they were all such very simple things, like the love of your family, taking walks, knitting or reading, housecleaning (I love a gleaming home), gardening, baking, holding the one you love, having a meal alone at a diner and people-watching . . . and if I've left yours out, I'm sorry. There were just so many things that we do to make us feel happy!

I'm really glad to report that I've sold several items from my new Etsy site. And George wants to be in an advertisement for it. I'm working on that.

With the holidays approaching, I plan on having a couple more giveaways just to get in the festive spirit of the season.

So, until tomorrow, my friends . . .
