The Winner and A Little Bit of Pixie Dust

Last night there was some magic afoot.

Yesterday had been a very long day.

A few of life's foibles had gotten

in the way of my grand plan for

the drawing giveaway.

I managed to get the names cut-out.

I had everything

ready to go

for the drawing.

I was using my favorite

Peter Pan

tin bank.

I put all of the names inside.

One by one.

I shook the can this way and that way.

I shook it up really well.

Then the phone rang.

I had to run up to the library

and hook the computers back up.

We had new counter-tops put in

and everything was disassembled.

When I came home

I had forgotten to finish the 

giveaway!

My brain can be fuddy-duddy like that.

Little did I know...

That fairies

had intervened.

You see, they were

tired of waiting.

Tired of waiting on me.

I woke up Saturday morning

to this!

One lone piece of paper on the doily

And

NOTHING was in the tin bank!

I turned the piece of paper over

very s-l-o-w-l-y

and

the winner is

CAMERON!

(the fairies are doin' some dancing, NOW!)

Cameron, please email me your address.

Unless you're afraid I might show up unannounced

with broken glass and a soldering iron

toting a large box of band-aids.

I would understand.

Congratulations, Missy Cameron!
