Yes, it's my birthday. I have no idea what we're going to do today but I'm sure it will be great. Last year Larry took me to Atlantis in the Bahamas and I got to swim with the dolphins. Not just to stand around and pet them but actually snorkel with them. That was great. The year before that it was a cruise. The year before that Larry rented an entire pontoon boat (normally seating 12) at Disney in FL, and we went around the lagoon before parking to watch the 9:00 pm fireworks from the Magic Kingdom on the water, complete with music & sound. I could go on and on (he's the master of awesome birthdays), but whatever happens today, I know it's going to be special. And to celebrate, I'm in the mood for a book giveaway. One of my sons bought me a copy of Lisa Moore's February, and I'd already bought one, so I have an extra copy. If you would like to try to win this copy, here's what you have to do.
1. Leave a comment on this post, and then send me an email with your email address. Anyone from any country can enter.
2. Enter by August 15th -- I will pick the winner (via random.org) on the 17th.
3. You do NOT have to follow my blog to participate. I didn't start this blog to gain followers (but a special thanks to all of you who read my posts and comment every now and then!) so that's not a requirement.

Hi Colleen! As it turned out, the celebration was cancelled due to me slipping in the grocery store parking lot while it was raining and falling flat on my back. I've been flat on my bed ever since. How I'm going to manage to fly to California on Friday is beyond me!
ReplyDeletethanks for coming by!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
ReplyDeleteThose are some great gifts!
