I highlighted One Project Closer's Before and After '09 program a few weeks ago. I sent them an entry just like I had last year.
Today, it features my brick and walkway project! Because Gmail is being a difficult creature, I learned this from Google Reader instead of the nice note they sent me of which I can only see the first line. I have to tell you, I'm blushing a little but still bursting with pride at the same time.
This is really great for a number of reasons. It's always fabulous to be recognized by great sites like OPC. And a $25 gift card to Lowe's, Home Depot or Amazon -- you guys really know how to make a girl smile! But the best thing of all ...
Having a donation made to Habitat for Humanity in my name. What a great thing that is! This is a group that I've worked with before and that I promise, if I can ever get This D*mn House under control, I'll work with again. My mediocre skills and collection of tools can definitely be put to the greater good.
Thank you Fred, Ethan, and gang for the honor and the accolades!
Be sure to put your own B&A into the mix because it's ALL good!

Not only is Habitat a great organization helping people all over the world, but it's a great place to learn other skills, too.

I'm just writing about your blog in general. I found it late last night on somebody's blog list that they follow you and took a look. I've read most of your entries - what a hoot you are! Plus what skills you and the mother have - and I so want a Lawrence to walk in to my world and help me out!! Love the all the bead board - I put some in my entryway and dining room 2 years ago and have never regretted it. Thanks for a great blog - I'm going to put you on my list right now! Take care.
Woo-hoo, wonderful, fantabulous, terrific...way to go!
