business mom blog contest.

I would love it if you would click on the icon above and VOTE for me! You can vote EVERY DAY until March 31st!

Here's the deal:

I've had a few people and write me and tell me that I should enter this contest that was about women with blogs that help women in business. I checked it really quickly and I thought it said that you could enter until March 31st. So, I thought I had plenty of time to sign up...

Ummm...I just went and checked it tonight and what it REALLY said is that the contest is OVER on March 31st. SOOOO... the whole thing has been going for quite a while now and I have a LOT of catch up to do...so if you could vote for me EVERY DAY...that would really help. :) --reading that last sentence makes me laugh...like I'm not asking too much or anything!--

I can't win this without you.

Thanks everyone...here's to a fun...or funny... competition as a hobble along in 4,192nd place.
