It's Only A Comment Away!

Recently I hopped onto Shelle's blog at BlokThoughts.

She was having a really great book giveaway. . .


. . . and I only needed to leave a comment to win!


And I won! Woo Hoo!

This lovely lady sent me a signed copy of The Tower of Strength, written by Annette Lyon.
(if you'd like to visit a really great blog written by a real live published author, visit her at http://blog.annettelyon.com/ )


Now I know it wasn't actually my comment that won, because Shelle used one of those random number picker thingys, (and for sure there were many more entertaining and humorous comments) but, ya know, what I wrote, even though pretty trivial, brought back a really great memory of my dear sweet grandma . . .


And so today, now that I have already reached chapter 4, have to say thank you thank you THANK YOU! for the moon and the stars lining up just right so that I could receive this book.

Because it's captured my attention, and I just want to finish this post up and get back to reading it . . .

Good job girl. I've seen so many people talking about her book and feel pretty special because I got to sit right at the same table as her at a blogging lunch last month. Enjoy the reading.
You asked about when I'm going on the trip. Possibly July or in the Fall. Me and Rhonda haven't figured that out yet.
