PhotoHunt: Surprise!

August 29, 2009

I’ve joined with some others at work to support the Komen Foundation Race for the Cure to fight Breast Cancer. I shamelessly take this opportunity to ask for your support by clicking here to visit my fund raising page & make a donation. I’ve already made my personal donation, but to sweeten the pot, for every donation made through my page, no matter how small, I will donate an additional $2 out of my own pocket. It’s that important to me. I hope that there will be lots of takers!

Now, on with theThe PhotoHunt theme this week is “Surprise!”

The Surprise this week is for you! I just noticed that tomorrow, Sunday, August 30th, is the 3rd Anniversary of this blog. Oh, I’ll admit that I didn’t really do anything with it for the first year and a half or so, but since I’ve become more active in blogging – and especially in PhotoHunt – I’ve met a lot of super-nice people all over the world.

To celebrate, I’m giving away this necklace! It comes from the treasure trove of jewelry my late mother-in-law collected over the years. I’m going to sell most of it on Flamingo Estate Sale (just a few pieces are listed there now). I hope to have most of it up by the end of September, in time for your Holiday shopping pleasure.

The necklace is by Absolute from HSN. The pendant measures about an inch and is 14Kt gold and comes on a gold chain (I don’t know how long the chain is, because it is still in its original package in the box. The stones are CZ/Diamonique. It has never been worn.

And all you have to do to get it, is leave a comment on this post between now and midnight Sunday night (U.S. Eastern/DST Time).

There is only one rule: Only one comment per person! I know some of you have multiple blogs, but I will only count one. I will count the number of comments and use an online random number generator to pick the winner.

Surprise!
