I won! I won! I won!

Ok, so it’s not really ‘first place’, but, I did win some really cool blog contests recently!

I’d like to send a big GIANT thank you for Jim and Doreen Kukral for sending me out a super groovy package of goodness in the mail!! You may know Jim from JimKukral.com and recently his wife, Doreen, has stormed into the blogging world with her wonderful blog, MomGoesGreen.com!

I’ve been following and listening to Jim for a number of years now and I really have learned a lot from him. Most importantly, to step up my video game. So – thank you for that, Jim!

And Doreen – she has taken over the green blogging world, as far as I’m concerned. This is one mama that knows her stuff in the ‘going green, saving the planet’ movement – and what she doesn’t know, she researches and finds out – with all of us following along!

Well, they’ve both recently run contests on their blogs and I just happen to be the lucky winner of both of them! No, they weren’t rigged, no, I’m not related to them – no, no, and no! LOL!!!

I won the coolest contest recently! I won a whole bunch of BluFrog Energy Drink and a ton of BluFrog schwag! Have I ever told you? I love schwag! I’m a sucker for it! Big time!

I met this super cool dude on Twitter named John Raser – or @johnraser. John is a professional competitive golfer. (Not sure I said that right, but, I know he’s pro and I know he still competes) Anyway – his blog is awesome – it’s called Go Speed Raser! Man, that brings back memories – my brother, David, absofreakinlutely loved that darned show!

John also represents a cool new energy drink company, BluFrog. And he decided to have a Friday the 13th Twitter BluFrog contest – and I won!

Thank you so much, John!! We are loving our BluFrog – we are definitely ‘Feeling the Frog’!!!

You can seriously buy just about anything online nowadays. And now you can order eyeglasses online and have them delivered by mail. Funny when you think about it.

My friend, Connie, is having a contest on her blog in which you can win a pair of eyeglasses that will be sent to you in the mail. The name of the company is Eye Buy Direct and Connie has already received a pair of glasses from them and she was really pleased with them.

Connie is giving us NINE chances to win the contest – how cool is that? I have been needing some new glasses really badly! I have had one person make fun of the outdated-ness of my glasses, but, more importantly – I’ve been looking through a foggy right lens for far too long. It is really not good.

GOOD LUCK!!

Do you know someone who would love to watch Jeff Burton race in the NASCAR Chase for the Championship race in Miami, Florida the weekend of November 14, 2008? I know there are some serious race car fans in my family! The races are often on at our family gatherings – we love crowding around the TV and watching the races as they happen! It’s especially exciting when they’re racing at Talladega, as that’s only about fifteen minutes from us! But I know several of them would LOVE it if I won a weekend trip to this race! Hmm…the thought of them waiting on me hand and foot hoping I’ll give them the tickets…. *wrings hands* Oh yeah!
