Today must be ranting day...my blog is basically a rant too. I gave up LONG ago on contests. I love the accounting commercial where they talk about the lottery...the first number is...NOT YOURS...the second number is...NOT YOURS...okay, the third number is yours, it's a 5, but you don't get any money for that, and the last number is...NOT YOURS...the story of my life. LOL

LOL!! I rarely win anything, either. I never win random contests, but I did win $500 for a video contest, last year. That was sweet.

The only random contest I did win was for some gorgeous speakers that Kim Komando gave away on her yearly giveaway week. I was the LAST caller of the entire giveaway; it was, like, a miracle! Unfortunately I didn't need the speakers. So I sold them for $250!

I enter every year to win a home makeover, with various organizations, and never win. :( That's real sad. I don't need speakers, but I sure do need a new kitchen.

Here's hoping Murphy's Law kicks in for both of us!
