I've never bothered to keep track of my contest wins because I never won much, didn't seem worth the effort to write them down :-) But it seemed like I was doing better lately, maybe because I've been more consistent about entering since losing my job. So I made a list -- and I have been doing better even though the wins are not big things. But every win is really nice anyway!
April Wins:
Powder Art Kit (saving this for when I need an art project to distract the kids)
2 Books -- Let's Get Ready for Kindgergarten and Let's Get Ready for First Grade (great books since I have a child who can use each one)
Book -- Fatal Waters by Iris Moss
Grateful Mom Tank Top (hasn't arrived yet)
Book -- How to Mess Up Your Child's Life (humor)
Book -- I loved, I Lost, I Made Sphaghetti by G. Melucci
Book -- The Triumph of Deborah
$50 Gift Card to a kid's store (a great win since the kids always need clothes)
May Wins:
Book -- One Deadly Sin by Annie Solomon
Gold Star Lubie (stuffed toy that I'll put away for a Christmas present)
Book -- Everyone is Beautiful by K. Center
Fruitabu Smooshed Fruit (which the kids will like for snacks)
Four Plaster Pets to paint (another good art project to hold for a rainy day)
Book -- Do-Over
Book -- Girls in Trucks by K. Crouch
Book -- Rescue Me by Christy Reece
Stuck on Me Labels (can use them for labeling the kids stuff for school, etc.)
I'm hoping my winning streak continues -- it's nice to get emails saying that I've won and even better to get mail that isn't bills or other things to worry about these days!!
