congratulations to JALYNN! she is the winner of the $25 special souvenir scrap booking prize. (j, email an address that will work for you right now. i'm not sure where you're at this week.) and for the record, although she told me to do so in her comment, i didn't even fold her paper smallest in order to be able to distinguish it from the others. she just won it naturally. (i did take a photo of her name after it was drawn out, but i accidentally deleted the good one instead of the blurry one and i don't know how to get it back...or if that's possible.)
congratulations must also go out to VIRGINIA. virginia won the super secret second prize. she was the first and only person to point out to me that august 22nd was not a sunday, as i had stated. so...she wins this awesome 18 month desk calendar. not that she probably needs one, since she already knows her dates, but it's cute and it is for the remainder of this year AND next year. way to go virginia! i like it when people nicely point out mistakes i've made...how else will i ever improve? (virginia, i'll need your address, too.)
now, this has nothing to do with the giveaway, but i was just curious...did anyone else get up this morning and get all ready for their first week in their new ward only to show up to an empty parking lot due to the temple dedication? or was that just me? i braved my way through the rain and my hair was actually looking okay today all for nothing. why all of a sudden for this temple are they shutting down the entire church production? does anyone know? oh well, i tried.
and i forgot to put photos of my bathroom on...another steal from ikea. so here's a photo of that. i like it a lot. i've had that rug for about 7 years and i've never really used it. i was so glad to find a cheap curtain that matched it. even though with the lighting in this photo it doesn't really look like it matches. the rug is NOT peach, as it appears, it is bright orange. man, living in a city, you can find almost anything. now i know why there is so much debt in the world. yikes.
thanks for all of you who entered. it makes me a little less homesick and a lot more happy to get comments from you all. keep 'em coming. here's me smiling even though my hair got rained on and my whole ward dogged me on my very first week:

We had several reminder calls and emails about the dedication, fortunately!
Fun prizes! I'm glad your enjoying yourself in "the big city". Cute shower curtain.
Cute bathroom! They even cancelled church here in Blanding for the temple dedication.
DANELLE!!!! (That's me screaming your name.) Do you remember me? We met in Colorado and used colored toilet paper in an outhouse...scarily risking vajayjay cancer. I love your blog. You are a HOOT! Hope your new adventure is working out well. I'd love details about it sometime. All my kids are in school all day now, and I'm seriously considering OT as a job when I grow up. You'll have to keep me posted! Take care ~ and by the way - that orange colored TP would look AWESOME in your new bathroom!
