1000th Post; Daughter, Brother, A Giveaway

 

My daughter

the baby

born in 1975

 

Before anything else, who does this look like, someone on a blog? This is not the best likeness of the other person, but the only one I have on the computer. She looks like me, sort of, but I am not sure how I had a blonde. The longer hair is obviously been colored. She has been coloring her hair since she was thirteen. At least now it is not purple or red. She was living in a family of extreme blondes and dark chestnut brunettes and she was a dishwater blonde, so she adapted with the help of CVS. Usually, it is redder than this.

 

 

My Brother's Birthday

born November 11, 1947; died December 12, 2001

 

Gary was exactly 14 months younger than I.

 

1000th Post

 

That is a lot of posts! I have been blogging for 3 years and 3 months. We can celebrate with a giveaway.

 

It's time to gather Christmas presents. So, I will give something that will be great for a present. Or, you can keep it for yourself. I have been debating as to how to work this. I can go two ways. First, I can do like Sluggy at Don't Read This; It's Boring and add something each week and make the drawing weeks away. Or, I can make several drawings, each with a short life.

 

I think I will go with many drawings so more than one person can win. Plus, I don't know how my chances for free mailing will work out. We will see. When I am told to mail, I mail! I will never shorten the time limit, and if I extend the limit, I will add one or more items to the giveaway. How will that work for you?

 

Remember, I received this for hosting a giveaway and blogging about Bear Grylls.

 

First drawing:

 

Bear Grylls paracord bracelet

$24.95 value



 

You must be a follower to enter. If you get someone else to follow me, you get an extra entry. But, that person must tell me or you must. You can enter once each day. If you blog about the giveaway, you will get three more entries. Leave an entry with a link of your blog where you announce this giveaway. Okay, that is one entry per day with the possibility of three extra ones one day, and as many more entries as you get people to follow my blog. Clear?

 

Entry chances:

1 entry if you are or become a follower.

1 entry for each person you convince to follow my blog.

3 entries if put the giveaway on your blog.

 

This will run through November 18th at midnight. If there are not at least ten entries, I will not draw. Oh, I might add something else and extend the deadline. But, hurry to enter now.

 

There is no one that I give Christmas gifts to that would care at all about this bracelet or even appreciate it!

 

Is this confusing? Just ask me in a comment.

 

Your turn

In your entry today, tell me what else would you like to see as a prize--box full of soap, shampoo, toothbrush and toothpaste? School supplies?

 

How long have you been blogging?

 

Have you figured out who might look like my daughter?
