I can't quite see how the money's going to work out either as the winnings pot seems very small - but I think Glenda's looking at it as crossing one bridge at a time...

Typing only with your left thumb ~ whew. I totally forgot about the Blog For A Year contest. I actually have my profile on the site, although it needs updating. I was even #5 for awhile. But then a "popular" blog came along and completely blew everyone out of the water. I was left feeling quite frustrated. I don't think the winnings ever reached what the host had intended, and I'm not sure the contest gained a lot of support. Too bad ~ it's a fantastic idea. Now she is someone for whom I would vote!
