Giveaway Winner Announcement

All twenty names went into the golden tea light receptacle.  I gave them a good a shake and without further ado or hesitation I took the plunge and pulled out Amanda Claire from Amanda's Patch. 

Congratulations Amanda!  Please email your details to me so that I can get the key ring sent off to you.  I may get some more key rings made up to sell at my Linden Grove Mercantile blog unless I get distracted by paper crafting in the meantime! 

Thank you to everybody who takes the time to comment here, as I know your time is valuable.  Thank you also for your concern regarding my eye test.  I have to have further tests at the hospital to see if there is a problem with the back of one of my eyes but getting an appointment could be a long way off yet.  In the meantime I have updated my look with a nice new pair of designer glasses.  I may even colour my hair this weekend and paint my nails.  (I don't think I have painted my nails for about 20 years!)  Have a lovely weekend however you decide to spend it. x

    Congratulations to Amanda!

    You sound a lot more positive today, I hope you stay that way. New glasses and hair are always a tonic aren't they?

    Congrats to the winner.

    I need to colour my hair this weekend too. I don't especially enjoy it but it's worth it for the end result, I don't like being so grey.

    Just catching up with your last few posts.Sorry I missed the giveaway but am sure Amanda really could use the boost your lovely cross stitch key fob will bring.
    I heard today that each of us contains within our bodies enough energy to power a town if it could be harnessed. I like to believe that what energies we pass to others with our love and support is enough to lift the darkest soul to light. I am sending good thoughts and healing energy for good eyes now and forever.

    Congratulations to the lucky winner - i love the key fob!
    Good luck with the eye test, I hope you dont have to wait too long for an appointment.
    Its amazing how perky and younger i feel when i colour my hair - mine is multi coloured as I type - i have a thick line of grey on top - hate it!
    Like you i can't remember the last time i painted my nails (except my toes that is!)
    have a great week Simone!
    Gill xx
