I WON A CONTEST AT THE LIBRARY !!!







I didn't think I would be putting the Palmyra Community Library on two days in a row, but again, I didn't think I was going to win one of their contests, either.  They had five different baskets you could win.  The first picture shows the form you had to make out for every book you read.  Once you complete the form, you could put it in the container next to the basket you wanted.

Now, I don't know if you know, I love to read.  I read 4 - sometimes 5 books a week - contest or no contest.  I guess I read more than that in the winter than I do the other seasons, but I read all year around.  So I had several entry forms and put them on my three favorite baskets - but still I didn't think I would win.  There were LOTS of entrants.

The children were not forgotten either.  There were also five baskets that they fill out forms for the books they read and put them in their baskets container.

I had to go out and I was shocked when I got a message on my answering machine that I won one of the contest baskets.  Went right down to the library and picked it up.  I was thrilled when I saw what I won !! The rest of the pictures show what I won.

I will be writing a thank you note to the library.
