~FAMILY CIRCLE GIVE AWAY WINNER~

Hello Girls....well I finally got my act together and did the drawing for my 200 post give away....Oh How I wished I could give each and every one of you a gift from my heart....Your all Winners to me...A BIG THANK YOU to all that entered and also for those that choose to follow my nonsense blog ha ha!! If I haven't been by to see you yet I will trust me...This has been a very emotional week here on my mountain top, with the dog dying and then Fort Hood..and 7 of the 12 that got killed at Fort Hood were in my grandson Jacob unit and he knew them personality.... You Remember these sweet plates that tell the story of life....






I think this is my favorite one...Because in real life we all have to learn to let go, be it with a parent, a child or an old dog....Len and I have had far too many discussion this week on letting go...Len wanted me to tell all of you THANK YOU for the comfort of all your kind comments this week...Which each one I read to him he would tear up on me, Many hugs I have given him and held him close as he cried...You see Rex really was his Best friend...Len had Rex for 9 years before he met me. It really was just him and his dog...I had 3 Yorkies at that time and they were my Girls...I lost Mama dog in 02 her daughters Brittany 04 and Tiffany in 05 they also died from old age....Len packed all of Rex's food and treats and took them all down to the Pit Bull shelter Yesterday....And I told him before he left he best not bring another dog home...ha ha!! I know many of you said he should get another dog but since Len and I have been together we have yet been able to just go some place and spend the night as we always had dogs to take care of, my dogs were not a problem as I could board them but with a Pit Bull no one and I mean no one would care for him....So we both feel we have put our life on hold for too many years and we both want to travel now and come April we plan on going to Vegas to meet up with Chari and Russell at Happy to Design for the Rockabilly car show YAHOO!! all music from the 50's...And Len and Russell are both BIG time car nuts I can't hardly wait to meet Chari in real life and for 4 days WOW!! we'll both be talked out by that time ha ha!!


Any way I best get to the winner...now as a rule I don't show the random number thingy and my lousy handwriting list...But this time I had to as you see I don't want anyone to think this was rigged ha ha!!!


As you can see I had 178 to enter...now really I had one more but she had the nerve to tell me she didn't want to be entered as these plates were not her thing and I won't mention any names Justine here.

So Mr. Random number thingy came up with 110....

This number was Melissa at "Heart and Home" OMG!! was my first thought people are going to think this was rigged for sure...As you know I adopted Melissa months ago as a Daughter and these plates aren't really her thing...But maybe her Cat Chestnut would like them for his room ha ha!! Oh Yes her Cat has it own room...Congratulations Melissa !! Now Please do your self a big favor if you have not met Melissa go by and visit her you won't be disappointed.... And girl I already have your address as I plan on moving in with you in my even older age ha ha!! Love ya sweet girl...Thank you all again...Now my next give away will be after Thanksgiving ....
May all of you have a Great Sunday...I am going to Second Sunday swap meet YAHOO!! Just know something is SCREAMING my name and I also get to see my Daughter Gina and do Dinner... Please take the time today to pray for our Service men and women and thank them for protecting our Freedom....
Hugs and smiles Gl♥ria
