I did not win...

I really wanted to win the Longaberger Valentine's Day Getaway For Two on the world's largest cruise ship, Oasis of the Seas, to the Eastern Caribbean February 12-19, 2011 — A value of over $6,000 per couple!!  Cruising is our favorite vacation.  I had nineteen entries and it only takes one to win, right?  When the drawing was postoned until Monday, 2/22 it was fine with me.  I had my home phone forwarded to my cell phone because we were out of town for several very important events - 
Holly Grace's ninth birthday party,

Jack's basketball game,

a Blue and Gold Cub Scout Banquet, a second grade Greek and Roman Festival and pick up my Girl Scout Cookies

and Charlotte came home with us!

I do not come from a long line of big winners, but I was hopeful.  I know that there are other ways to go on the leader cruise.  Like lots of myDream points.  Unfortunately, I am way behind in points.  However, I do have a KitchenAid Mixer that I dearly love and don't know how I ever got by without it.  And, a new TV, a WII and a WII Fit.  I guess that I will just stay here baking, watching TV, working out and enjoying my grandchildren.  I love all these, but I really wanted to go on that cruise.  Maybe there will be another opportunity to earn it another way.  Or maybe I will get busy recruiting new consultants to our Branch, increasing my personal sales and helping my team grow.  Hmmm... I would really like that!  Will you join me?  We could all be winners!
