Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on June 24, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 150, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 30 people
  • Final notes:
    As Blushfulmoon is unwell, she has asked me to close this contest on her behalf.
    While we are very grateful for those members of my group who loyally support the huguenauties contests, it is disappointing that many (who enter other contests on this site) don't participate in ours. Is there a reason for this?
    Congratulations to j aime Coudre (GOLD), Maureen (SILVER), Hinemoa (BRONZE) and Angelica, Heathcote and HuMaRIE who won Honourable Mention.
    The standard of all above entries was very high and our thanks go to the Hostess, Blushfulmoon, for inspiring them with her choice of contest topics.
    Love to all and may God bless you.
    Hugh (R.)

    Three good subjects!

    I hope my muse will cooperate so I can enter this contest! "Come on, Muse, this is no time to snooze. Get a move on!"

    Jenelda asked me to let you all know that she'll be off line for a while. She was bitten by a mosquito and contacted Ross River Fever which is very debilitating and she apologizes for not entering the last few contests. I check any messages for her and visit her when I can.

      I didn't know either~

      My hubby got bit by a tick..all red and swollen..needs to go to ER the area is beet red..but you know men and their pride....
      I found some old Cipro's I had on hand an antibiotic and been giving that to him..and cleaning it with alochol rub...and the Lidoderm Patches that numbs the area...so far it's looking better today.....
      Come on people I know you can think of poems to go with these options that I have chosen..surely our muse isn't that far gone...
      Hoping to see lots of entry's
      Hugs

    Sorry Susan, I have many distractions and I can't get a handle on the subject. Best wishes to all participants, happy summer (or winter as the case may be).
