Thank you every-one!!


I thought I had 4 entries for this competition, but in fact I only had 3 and wasn't able to get anymore.

The reason I asked for help in this one is because my brain can't handle competitions like this. Give me coupons to collect over a week or so, and I do just fine, but my imagination got up and left around the same time as my memory!

I duely considered every single suggestion (thank you again) and finally made my (difficult) choice.

I told you I'd let you know what I decided.....so.....the winners are .................

Thank you from inside my heart ! http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...hearts0233.gif

Oh Anne, I do hope you win!! You say the prize is worth $30K? Okay, sell the stuff that you can live without (at least $15K worth) and use the money to come see us!!! :D

Already thought of that Carolina!! :D

I've also entered another competition that is running in our local newspaper. The prize is a return trip for two, plus accomodation to the destination of the winner's choice...... London, Dubai, Paris or New York. Paris was tempting, but I did write down New York on the entry form.

See! I'm covering all bases. :icon_lol:

In this other competition, the airfare is only to New York (and the accomodation is there too, so I might have to do some swapping there), then I'll be needing cash for flights to an awful large number of other destinations once I get there.

Mmmmm! I'm thinking ahead already. One can dream, can't one?

AfterMyNap 03-26-2008 10:20 PM

Anne, I have a strict rule when it comes to distant visits: Whoever travels farthest, travels least.

So, you would definitely win the farthest category, therefore, it will be our job to stalk you, uh, visit you where ever you land! See? Easy!

You're soooooo gonna win the game!

Mmmm! I do like the travel least rule. I'm gunna be so very disappointed if I don't win.....but I WILL stay positive. I've never had so may people who cared for me, barracking for me before.

Let's face it.....I've never had so many people who cared about me before!

The competition closes March 29th and is drawn on April 4th.


LATE EDIT!


There was another entry form in today's newspaper.
I can't believe my luck! Hopefully this is an omen :D

The suggestion I chose for my late entry is:

I did change it around a bit, but thank you ConsejoChick for the idea. Belize now has 2 entries riding on this!

I figured that if I want to one day get to see Toad Hollow, then I'd have to do something drastic DM....
hence the omission of your suggestion.



Awww! Ya know I didn't mean it... :hug:

She's coming to America! Not Toad Hollow! I had first dibs on her! :mad:

Koala77 03-28-2008 08:20 PM

I love that pic AMN.....reminds me of the saying "Somedays you're the seagul......(etc)"

I feel a lot like that fisherman some days!:(

ConsejoChick 03-31-2008 03:01 PM

Belize is pulling fer ya!!!!:D

Koala77 04-03-2008 03:53 AM

It's getting close!

Tomorrow's the day they decide who wins this package that we've all entered. The electronics package that has my new computer in it I mean!

I'm getting so nervous! http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...s/4_6_218v.gif

Oh my gosh. I doubt I'll sleep tonight, I'm so nervous http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...s/4_6_200v.gif

I'll be pacing the floor tomorrw, walking backwards and forwards just waiting for my telephone call. By the time it arrives, you'll all be in bed asleep. :Sob: Who can I call? Who will be awake for me to tell my good news to??

I'll be disappointed if I don't win this one, but then again....I still have entries riding on the trip to New York. That one won't be drawn for a few weeks more. I'm bound to get one or the other... :D


OMG.....I'm nervous again......http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...es/23_34_4.gif

Today was the day for the competition to be drawn!


I waited all day for the phone to ring! http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...ies/000078.gif


I did all the right things..... http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...Pleeeese42.gif


But nothing seemed to help..... http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...ilies/NO11.gif

I got very disappointed, and rather upset...... http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...es/crycry1.gif



Unbelievable as it is, but WE don't seem to have won this prize!!


But then I thought, what the heck?


.I must be going to New York instead!


http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...1EF4116989.gif



Look out everyone.....looks like I could be heading your way!! http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i.../Partyon13.gif

AfterMyNap 04-04-2008 08:50 AM

NO, NO, NO! They just haven't announced it yet!

weegot5kiz 04-04-2008 09:36 PM

Yeah, what he said. ;) Or you could have used the one from DM about punching their eyes.....

I really think you should have submitted one violent one. Frighten them into announcing you as the winner! :D

Riverwild 04-05-2008 12:32 AM

!@#$%^&*()_

They do that to us every Wednesday and Saturday when they announce the Megabucks and Powerball!!!

Someone's always stealing our money!!!!!

Thank you for all your kind words though, they did help ease the pain from this disappointment. :Doh:

You're all wonderful. Thank you for the support. :grouphug:


All I can say now is.....Look out America when they draw the trip to New York! :D

Kitty 04-05-2008 04:51 AM

Awww, Koala I'm sorry they didn't pick you. Will they announce who the winner is? I'd like to read the winning entry - and know who stole YOUR computer!! :D
