Oh Happy Day!

I had the most wonderful day today.

Correction, I had the most wonderful afternoon today!

I had been sitting by my computer All. Day. waiting for McMommy to announce the winners to her most recent giveaway. (Persistent, yes. Also, Sad and Pathetic, yes.)

The reason was that I had entered one of her giveaways.

A Pre-Made Blog Design by Designer Blogs, to be more exact.

*here is where the heavens open up and a chorus of angels sing an...um...angelic chorus.*

Sorry for the redundancy.

You can imagine my glee when I saw the page had been updated (don't mock me,) and there, near the top of the page, was the announcement for the blog design winners, and...

I won!

I never win anything!

Not to mention the fact that I have been asking for a blog makeover since Christmas!

AND with Ian (my husband,) and I losing our jobs, and having to move out of state to stay with my parents while we job/house search, I was/am in need for some great news.

Okay, okay. I'll admit. When I found out I won, I cried.

Seriously.

And then, 2 minutes later, when Ian pointed out that my chosen blog design was "taken," (I think that means someone bought it,) I cried some more.

Though this time it was tears of dispair.

Because, people, don't mess with a woman and her blog.

Ian calmed me down though, and helped me find a new design that I love. It's a little different from I am used to, but I think it will turn out beautifully!

I am still waiting to hear back from Designer Blogs and/or McMommy, so there might be a chance that the original design is still available.

I guess you'll just have to wait and see!
