The winner is!

Well, the giveaway announcement day has arrived and gone.

I was all set to reveal the winner on Wednesday night when in the early afternoon my Internet connection went on the blink.

After what felt like a million

times of clicking off my modem to reboot it but with no satisfaction I decided to

call AT&T. After a long time on the phone it seemed it

was a problem that would involve maintenance to come out to check the lines.

They scheduled it for Saturday.

I thought..... WHAT Saturday!!!!

I can't wait til Saturday.

The memory of me in the

public library last January was coming back to me.

Ugghh I don't have time for that now!

But what choice did I have?

I told George they were scheduled to come out between 8am-8pm

(no time commitment there) haha!

Which cracked him up too...not really.

He said he'd take a look at it though I insisted I did everything I could already.

Seeing as AT &T

will charge you as soon as they step one foot

inside the premises I thought it can't hurt.

I went back to work.

A half hour later he tells me

I had Intranet again...(that's what he calls it).

For someone who never gets on the darn thing

except to check the weather or to watch a movie trailer

he's an ace trouble shooter.

Darn him!

I was happy.... just kidding.

Are you still with me??

I had this idea that I would enlist the help of one of my cats.

I had gotten the names and numbers all filled out the night before. I

wanted to sprinkling the pieces of well folded paper over one of

them and the one that landed on their head would be the winner.

Bella was the one I decided to use...but she was already in the loft sleeping.

Didn't seem fair to wake her just for my amusement.

So I used Charlotte instead. She seemed willing but wanted me to pick her up

and cuddle more then play my silly game.

I invisioned scattering the papers like confetti with one single paper landing on her head like a light feather....instead they just plopped on her back.

Less graceful then I pictured it in my head:))

I think I was holding back not really wanting to make a mess!

Then plan b was to have her put her paw on the winner.

This wasn't exactly very scientific.

I just picked the one closest to her paw.

At this point she was totally disinterested.

Just like a cat.

Ta Da!!!

Number 207

what.... you need a name?

It's Zuzu of A Cottage In the Woods!!!

Congratulations

It's kind of a funny story, Zuzu and I have been following each other for awhile now,

but she just recently joined as a follower....so I guess it paid off this time to wait to follow:))

She has a wonderful blog.

I know we all say that, but it's really true. She lives in the mountains of Colorado... in well

A cottage in The WOODS! hence the name.

Her and her husband built there home and they lead a simple but full life

entwined with nature.

Some of the scenery from around her home can bring a tear to my eye

they are so beautiful!

I hope you will go visit and say hi.

Thank you for all your comments and letting me know what you

love about Easter.

I hope you all get to spend it with loved ones or family.

I wish you all a Happy Easter!!!
