Luck O' The...

Ok, you're right, for a good Irish girl to let the holiday of St. Patrick's Day slip by with nary a mention is a travesty in itself, but to my utter and complete defense (that and I absolutely and totally forgot on that day...I didn't even wear green to garage sales, I mean, isn't it enough that my last name is Irish and I dont' tan?) it was the weekend, and it was the weekend that I needed to rest...so, no, I didn't post...and no, I did not drink any green beer (because I was still ill) and no, I didn't get pinched because I didn't go anywhere that day...and the cat's not Irish (plus, I've noticed she's a little lax about holidays sometimes...and with her allergies kicking in too...she's been a little out of it)


But, that didn't keep the Leprechauns from smiling upon me, and bringing me some luck...I accidentally in my blogtravels, found out about this little contest called One World One Heart. So, I visited a bunch of blogs and signed up for thier give-aways. I was a little bummed too, because it seemed like such a wonderful idea to participate in (on the give-away end of it) but I was a little late, so perhaps next time? Anyway, as I got home last evening, I found a surprising email in my box from 1,000 Faces of Mother Henna telling me I won...This was such an intruguing blog, and I enjoyed perusing the artwork and creativity quite a bit, which of course, led me on some more blogtraveling adventures too numerous to mention here...but rest assured, I am completely recovered and excited to receive this little bit of fun in the mail...

I'm telling you, my life is incredibly amazing and I'm one of the luckiest people I know
(I say it a lot, so it must be true...yes?)
