Countdown to 1,000 Posts..."A Turtle's Tale 2" Giveaway


This is post #991 and I'm beginning a celebration month of giveaways. Thanks to our friends at Gaiam Vivendi I'm delighted to offer a giveaway for "A Turtle's Tale 2: Sammy's Escape from Paradise." I had the good fortune to have a giveaway -- again thanks to Gaiam Vivendi -- for "A Turtle's Tale," and am so glad to share another adventure of this lovable turtle. Sammy's tales are sweet, thoughtful and perfect viewing for rainy day or hot-hot-hot summer days. The DVD will be available on Tuesday, July 9th and I will announce our winner on the same day. This giveaway is limited to the US, but there will be others this month open to all. Please be a friend of Buttercup -- Bloglovin, Google+ or Google Friend and leave a comment about a favorite rainy day summer activity.

I was overwhelmed by the comments to my last post. Thanks and thanks! I had the MRI this morning and it went as well as a contrast -- I received dye so that there would be a clearer picture -- MRI could go. I'm not sure when I will get the results, though I am expecting it will be after the Fourth. I am optimistic and am so grateful for the many prayers and hugs.

The bathing suit, alas, was not a success. I definitely need to lose at least ten pounds to wear it. But that's a post for another day. My old suit will have to do for awhile. I do like to swim a lot and I'm looking forward to some pool time while I'm in Florida.

Wishes for a wonderful Fourth of July!

Wow, 991 posts. That is a lot of writing. Congratulations!

Waiting for results of tests is nerve wracking, but from my experiences, the results from an MRI come back quickly.

I am so glad to hear that you made it through that MRI well. Too bad about the bathing suit.:-(

I am not on Google+, but I think I follow your blog on Google Friend. I'm not sure, though. I'm a bit of a mess when it comes to understanding technology.:-)

So glad the MRI is over. About the bathing suit, with all the activity you will be doing - - - walking, etc. - - without the stress of work - - - and time to eat healthy - - - the pounds will get gone. I am confident of that for you!

Hope the results are well, from MRI I find the open machine much easier to handle-hope you don't have to go for another MRI. Happy holiday weekend

I hope that the MRI turns out well. Let us know when you hear about it.
I need to lose 40 lbs to look good in a bathing suit so 10 lbs is not so bad.
that looks like a good give away.
Have a good week.
