It’s my 1 year WordPress blog birthday party, and you are invited! Thank goodness I checked in on one of my favorite bloggers, Kay, yesterday, and saw that she was having her one year blogiversary. It reminded me that mine was coming up soon, so I hopped back on over to mine to see, and soon it was indeed! It’s today! I have enjoyed sharing with you this past year. I am always amazed that so many of you keep coming back to visit me. I’m not the most interesting blogger, not the wittiest, nor most creative. I’m not sure why you keep coming back, but thank you! Thank you for taking the time to visit and share with me. What will we do to celebrate? How about a reward challenge? If you are a “survivor” of reading Randi’s ramblings this past year, I think you deserve a chance at a reward. What is the challenge? It’s simple. Just comment on this blog birthday party post, by the time I stumble out of bed this coming Saturday morning, and settle in front of the computer with my cup of coffee. (that is usually somewhere between 7:30 and 9:00 am central time-sorry I can’t be more specific 🙂 it depends on how tired I am) So, Survivors, wanna know what you are playing for? How about one yard cuts off of the five cheeriest, most partying looking bolts of fabric I have in my stash?
Worth playing for? If so, get those comments coming! You have til I become conscious on Saturday morning to be included in the drawing! I will post the winner shortly thereafter. Good luck!

Hey Randi, I started my blog shortly after you did. I guess my 1 year will be coming up soon. It’s taken me a long time to get in the groove of posting, but I read yours faithfully! I never know what you’ll blog about next!! I guess that’s why I keep coming back. Quilting? Golf? Haircut? Snakes? Flat Stanley? LOL! Your blog is fun to read, keep it up.
