I’m going in circles today.

Unpacking,

Cleaning.

Putting up.

Planning.

Where to start where to start.

But.  First thing on my list is a pic.  Of myself.  Sheesh.  How I hate taking pics of me.  So many more interesting things. However.  This is an occasion!  I won a contest!  Yay me!!

How?  I called in to a friend’s radio program…Shellie @ http://www.allthingssouthern.com. She was giving away T-shirts so I called to enter my name.  Well, the guy who answered was tickled to death that someone from Kansas had called into Shellie’s show.  I explained that I met her last summer at ChristyFest and quickly became another one of her many fans.  To my horror, he put me on the show live.  Accckk!!  I’m one of those folks who when put in to a situation where I have to talk…like, out loud to any kind of audience…I never know what I’ve said.  I go blank.  Can’t remember a durned thing.

Anyway, I struggled through with Shellie’s help.  She was all chatty and nice and think I might have made some sense of some sort.

The next week, Shellie notified me that I had won!  I NEVER win anything.  Ever. And after telling Shellie exactly that, she kinda suggested that she “Might” have weighted the contest a bit.  In my favor.  That’s not official.  I have NO confirmation on that.  But my shirt came while we were in Branson!

And..since I had promised Shellie a photo, I was compelled to follow through.  Especially since Lucy aka Janis had NOT sent her pic in yet.  Gotta beat her at something and this is my chance.  But…I let Big Boss get off this AM without taking the pic so my only option was to do the self-timer thingy with my phone.  Sorry. It’s the best I could do.

Thank you for the great t-shirt, Miss Shellie!!  I love it and I love what it says.  And every time I bless someone’s heart, I think of you.  I catch myself blessing folks a lot nowadays…Jana can vouch for that.  Of course, she’s pretty sure I’m crazy anyways, so I’m not sure that counts.  😀

And if you get a chance, listen to Shellie this afternoon at 5 Central HERE!
