We have a winner!

I think the real reason I wanted to do a give away was just to play with the Random Number Generator. When I got to the site, there was an option for Random Integer Generator, too, so I thought I'd try that one. That's a lot of math before 9:00 a.m. considering I also had to help D with some 5th grade multiplication before school. Seems she spent her homework time over the weekend concentrating on long division and missed out the 3-digit multiplication studying.

Anyhoo....here are the results:

Counting down the comments, the 25th one is from Paulette! Congratulations! Sounds like Paulette could really use this thread catcher! She said:

"Boy do I need this! Actually what I REALLY need is one of those huge dumpsters that you find in alley ways....but alas...it won't fit in my sewing room!"

Watch for an email from me Paulette. Once I get your home address I can pop this in the mail to you.

The retreat was wonderful, productive, delicious, tiring, hysterical, loud, quiet, contemplative, relaxing, restorative and fun. Photographic evidence coming soon......for now, I leave you with a pile of Christmas gifts completed:

I love getting presents completed early. Lots of other hands in blogland have been busy starting holiday gift projects, it sure feels great, doesn't it?
