Apologies & Update on Giveaways

August 28, 2009 by Darlene

Hi all, I just wanted to give you a quick update on things. As some of you have noticed I haven’t been out commenting a lot and that’s because my Dad has been having some health issues and has been in and out of the hospital. I’m praying that things get back to normal soon so for all of you who pray, please send one up for my papa.

I have a few giveaways that are overdue for drawing and I hope to get to them sometime tomorrow. My apologies for not getting to them on time but it can’t be helped. So, that’s it for now. Just didn’t want you to all think I’d disappeared. Things will eventually get done.
