YOUR WORST CHRISTMAS GIFT EVER!!! CONTEST!

So I was having a chat the other day with my far too pretty, far too skinny, far too perfect friend whom I love. The convo made it's way to Christmas talk...Bla bla bla, ho, ho, ho...but we then turned a very humorous corner into the WORST PRESENTS EVER...that we had received for Christmas...

I have to say my list was pretty short, I seem to make out alright from the Jolly old guy...But I did have one that I remember quite vividly...My EX...(father of my 2 darling older children)...gave me a lovely matching 3 piece set of Blue , Quilted, Winnie The Poo diaper bags one year...I know, I know...back of ladies...He's all mine...well WAS...Decided to donate him to charity much like the diaper bags...


Anyway....enough about that Hot Mess....Let's talk about me...and my FIRST GIVEAWAY EVER..ever...ever....(insert....fun echoing effect here...) And it's for TWITTER'ers....


I am giving away 3 Autographed copies of my book...and all you have to do to enter is leave a comment about your worst Christmas gift ever & Tweet this contest (not totally necessary...but would be lovely if you did...)...be sure to leave your Twitter handle so I can reach you for your info if you win!!!
I will pick my 3 faves and post them on my web site with a fabulous CRAPPY GIFT COCKTAIL...



This contest is open to residents of Canada & United States only.

Contest closes Wed Dec 2 2009 @ 11:59 pm
