Not a Winner
I’ve decided that I’m just not a winner… There are people out there who are just plain lucky. They’ll constantly tell you about this thing that they won, and that thing that they won. I enter contests all the time, but I just never win. I did win some books during a Bloggy Giveaway a year ago, I think… and I won a raffle my senior year of high school (one of 10 people), but all the rest of the contests I take the time to enter? Nada. I think it’s pretty clear that I’m not going to be the one telling you about the free hotel stay that I won, or the spa trip, or the flight to somewhere fantastic. Oh well! If we have to work hard for the things we get, that means that we appreciate them more, right?

I believe someone I know, sweeps her carpets, while playing on the computer or watching tv???? Like your mother though, can buy 10 scratch offs and everyone a loser, then comes the next guy and wins my 100 bucks!

Don’t you have a sweet litte Roomba that terrorizes your cats, providing us with endless entertainment???

Yes, I do… as my mother already pointed out. But that wasn’t a contest that I entered, it was a door prize.

Aww! I am having a raffle for an iPod in conjunction with an event for my Race for the Cure. You might get lucky– I do not have very many entries yet!
