I never win anything. NEVER. I have of course not participated in many contests and I have bought lottery tickets only a few times in my life, but I have never won anything. Until now.
Recently, my very talented blog friend Holly hosted a giveaway in honour of her one year blog anniversary. Holly is one of my oldest blog friends and she is so kind, generous and absolutely talented.
In any case, I seem to have become one of the winners! About a week ago as I returned from work, there was an envelope waiting for me in the mailbox, filled with small "treasures".
Thank you Holly, the gifts were a wonderful surprise.
Congrats on winning! :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations. It is always a good thing to have a dear friend around.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on winning Protege. That was so nice and so kind of Holly, but you are definitely a deserving recipient!
