I won?????

I’m feeling a little rejected.
I feel a bit grim.
I hoped to get a great super prize.
After the contest I did win.

However, it seems
It seems to be
That I’m being ignored
By Bliggity.

A contest – a contest
An e-wager he announced
When my money comes in
The winner is pronounced.

I thought and I thought
And I thought some more
I took a guess
I’m no bore.

And sure enough
It was with cheer
He announced the date
The winner was clear

I won I won!
Could it be?
For two contests I’ve won
At Bliggity!

Oh nobody knows
My delight was extreme
My prize – is it a song, a steak
Could it be ICE CREAM?

And then, my days
Turned into nights
Into weeks
It sure bites

I have no prize
I have no reward
I have no steak
I haven’t even a sword.

My sadness now
Consumes my blog
That bliggity
What a prize hog.

I think you deserve a BIG prize. He really made it sound like you would get a prize.

coffee

I have to take issue with something. Dave Ramsey... love him. usually. But, today... I got an email from him (not because we're personal friends but because we've paid to take his FPU class)... and he had the NERVE to say that coffee is not a necessity. it is a luxury. I'm contemplating my open letter to him. Something like this... Dear Dave, Although I appreciate all that you have done in your life and ministry, I have to take issue with one point. Coffee is not a luxury. How can I ask my husband to extend a special line item in our budget for Starbucks when you continue to claim that it is a luxury? Let me educate you on the value of my daily Starbucks .... First of all, it is research... when I get the necessary funds, I plan to open my own coffee shop, and it is vital to my financial peace that I complete the research needed for a successful coffee shop. Secondly, ... have you SEEN me in the morning when I don't have it? Do you work beside me? No... you haven't...

Quick! Call an Ambulance!

I went on a bike ride with my 9 year old yesterday. Okay... I will wait a minute while you gain your composure. You don't have to be so loud about it. I had been promising her that we would go on a bike ride together for a few days. Why didn't I promise her a trip to Starbucks for a nice hot latte? So, we ditched a few responsibilities and went on a bike ride. But, I didn't have a bike. So, I was going to walk. She said I could borrow Abbie's bike. Except Abbie has the bike seat from the land down under - you know what I mean. And my rear was not meant to sit on that tiny thing. But, I rode it anyway. After we crossed the street, we started heading down the road and it was pretty nice for a couple minutes. Luckily, my dad lives 2 blocks away, so we had to stop there to say hi and to tell him that we are on a bike ride. Then, we headed back on our bike ride. We left my dad's and there is a slight hill. Emily got tired just-in-the-nick-of-time so I had to walk...
