My friend Mary sent me this:

Brett finished with Ewing's sarcoma treatment recently. He and Holly are
young and in love and could win a vacation from eHarmony. Their love
story is posted on the link below, and there is a voting button
underneath it.

Please give them a vote...or two. You can vote once a day through
January 23.

The Time Has Come to Reveal the 'BIG news'...

My friend/practically sister, Kelly, nominated me for Glamour magazine's 'Woman of Your Year' contest (thanks SO much, Kelly). The contest rules said this-

Who is your Woman of the Year?

Tell us about the unsung hero who's making the world a better place--whether she's a teacher, a doctor, a community activist or a cop. She could be featured in an upcoming issue of Glamour.

Glamour's Women of the Year Awards shine a spotlight on high-achieving women who inspire us all. But there are plenty of women whose amazing work never gets recognized.

Who inspired you this year? Write a paragraph telling us her name, her age, how you know her, what she's done this year to help others beyond your immediate family or circle and what impact she's had--whether she's saved lives, gotten legislation passed or raised awareness for a cause.

Well...I have been speaking to people at Glamour on and off for the past week and I am one of 5 finalists!!!

Starting on August 4th, voting will begin on the Glamour website-where the public (this is where you come in ;)) will decide who the winner is! I really appreciate if you would spread the word on your blogs, to your friends via Facebook, MySpace, email, whatever! Thanks so much :). I will definitely put up more details when I become aware of them!

Today, I am grateful for so much love and opportunity, for amazing friends, family and hubby, for God's graces.
