Maureen - Thanks so much for catching my "goof". I would hate to have an AR go un-noticed. Thank you!!

David - I am having fear about when I have to do the Carnival - Panic is setting in - 5 months early. Some of these posts that people do, make me wonder why they are not Authors instead of Real Estate/Techie guys/gals.. Ya know?

Craig - I feel quite proud for you - Man you have some guts - you jumped in, took the reigns and never looked back. Good for you. Many many congrats - look forward to seeing all your posts in the Carnival. BTW, I love Rubies and Diamonds... a girl can never have too many of those..

Eddy - those are just the posted ones.. I wonder how many actually go submitted - ya know?

Pat - Congrats to you as well - You are one of my favorites - and I don't think that you are a curmudgeon (sp?) - that does not seem to fit you -

Bryant - let me refer you to a post - written by a very smart smart man - I would advise you to read it - so you can get your posts in - ON TIME

And Rob - Next time you can attend in your PJ's if you would like - Not only are the competitions getting more fierce but they are getting earlier and earlier every time. I think the Carnival posting is becoming a contest as well. Its a contest in a contest - Ugh.. I am stressed out now.

I did not think of it as a goof! I was not trying to correct you... I just ran through the honorable mentions to see who I knews... and I thought it was Craig on his non Active Rain Blog and it was... As Active Rain grows it will be tough to keep track of these things.. Thanks for bringing the Carnival to Active Rain for those of us (me) who does not think to go look for it.

Ouch! Christine you got me on that one. We went out of town and about 2 hours down the road it dawned on me I forgot to enter. And of course last week AR was down all day. My fault for waiting to the last minute to submit. Just do it! I have to remember that. BTW you look very nice today:)
