Um, If You Wouldn't Mind, I Mean, It's Not Like I Ask You To Do Anything. Much.

Posted by Heidi in another lame request to vote for moi

Hey, I just found out that I was nominated at Mormon Mommy Blogs for the privilege of being highlighted this month.

Thrilled!

Also--wetting my pants. People who have never heard of me are coming here from there to check me out--which means I am going to have to come up with something way more brilliant than the post I had planned for today. Plus, I am up against eight others. Eight! I haven't worked up the courage to go and see who, yet.

It would seem that the good in life is always tempered with the less than good. (One example, my finger injury that was hugely exacerbated by my eight hours of novel-typing day before last--what's up with that? Not to mention I spent the whole day yesterday just staring at the walls, completely blog-brain-dead and wholly incapable of catching up on anything, including your blog posts. Way sad.)

Hey, Life--way ta be! (And thanks to you who nominated me--that pint of blood is in the mail.)

Kristina P.

I was so excited for you when I saw it!

Unfortunately, I decided not to vote. Not because I don't love you, but because I love 6 of the blogs nominated!! Ack! So, in the interest if fairness, I just didn't vote.

But I voted for you in my heart!

Can you believe that Kristina? That was her excuse for not voting for me either! I blame my loss entirely on her.

That's wonderful! Congratulations!

Although my nauseated tummy could have done without the "pint of blood" reference. It's not your fault though.

I keep smelling dried ketchup *groan* somewhere around the computer, but there isn't any so I know my brain is playing tricks on me.

There. I voted for you! Now you're tied for first!

It's funny how that notoriety creates such pressure! I had my craft room featured in a magazine once as the 'perfect space'. I was seriously never able to work in that room after that. Too much pressure to do things 'perfectly'. It was weird. I finally got rid of the room so I could enjoy my less than perfectness again.

YOU however will be expected NOT to cave under pressure like I did. No, you'll swim just fine.

At this moment I hold in my hands a copy of the one and only book written by the one and only Heidi!!! It came today!! My son thought it was his camera...not a happy camper...but I am! This will help me through the next two weeks!!!!

Oh, ya, congrats! ;)

Heidi--thanks! Stacey, you too! Cynthia--thanks for stopping by! And sorry about your craft room. So, I take that to mean I should never have my house featured in a magazine or I would have to move? April--Yay! I'm so excited for you to read it!
