It’s here, it’s here: Please vote for me!

Suzanne, must we endure this again?!
It’s that time again! The second (final) round of the SAM-e contest! This is no ordinary contest. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, please read here lest I drive my regular readers mad, simply mad, by repeating it: Read here.
Against all odds and only because YOU MADE IT HAPPEN, I was at the top of the first round contestants for this job that would mean so much to my family. You can see the first round final tally here.
I am grateful beyond belief. You can read how grateful I am here, but you don’t have to because I’m going to tell you again and Again and AGAIN until you are sick of it. THANK YOU!
From today (November 17) to December 7, you can vote again. The final decision will be made beyond the vote this time–by the company. However, your vote COUNTS. The company wants to see it. Please bring it? This round, including the Top 20 contestants from the first round, required the submission of a 90-second video plus an essay. I have the video here.
I hope you enjoy it! (Those are my beloved chickens and ducks! That’s Boomer barking! Those are my animals! CLOVER. And, yeah, that is ME. I made this video for YOU.)
Thank you!!!!!!! (Don’t be making me cry again!)
And!!!!!
I have something for YOU! I can’t tell you the details today, but starting tomorrow and through Thanksgiving, I have a contest for YOU to win something right here! Come back tomorrow for all the details and to enter enter enter because there will be multiple winners! (The prizes were DONATED. It is AMAZING.)
Remember you can vote every day!
Here’s the link again: Please vote for me!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! Have fun with me with this and let’s ROCK IT!!!! Cuz, you know, they just don’t think us little hillbilly farm girls can do that…..

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....
Make friends, ask questions, have fun!
Take Clover with you in 2010!

I was laid off in April and know what it’s like to need some income. I’ll be rooting for you in Florida!
Good luck!

Hearing the chickens cluck and the ducks quack as they tried to get the most of the goody they were eating sure brought back memories of my childhood. Thank you!
I also didn’t find the place to vote so I will keep checking for the link. I’ll tell everyone I know to vote!!!

I also went out and bought my first box of Sam-e Complete yesterday. After first reading all about it and what others had to say I decided I’d give it a try.
Good Luck and we all know you really don’t need the luck, you’ve got this wrapped up.

You rock! I love the video–I have wireless here at the hotel room, and it loads slow so I had the benefit if seeing the tousle for the scraps in slow motion and fast forward in the same video.

This company is not only going to choose you, but hire you permanantly. They would missing sooo missing out if they did not hire you for a permanant gig.
Your “fans” will make sure of it!!
Because of you, I am taking the SAM E now and it does work. Just wish I could find my niche in life like you have.
We LOVE you!!!!

Ern wanted me to tell you his calendar at work said today is Home Made Bread Day & that it’s celebrated world wide.
I voted on both our computers, he voted at work. I’m not sure how he can vote on the weekends. My computers only let me vote once a day on each one, even if I clear my cookies. But we’ll do our best!
I posted on a small writers loop & they’re on it.
