3/9/08 Gotta love it

One thing I really like about the blogs is that it allows my friends and family to keep up with progress and involvement in the contest. My mother started calling my relatives a few days ago to tell them how to vote for me and read my blog. Almost immediately I started getting encouraging words posted from various members of my extended family tree. I even got a little note from a lady who used to babysit for me a long. She was just checking out the site and recognized me. Pretty cool, huh?
