My One Year Blog Anniversary With Giveaway!



It has been one whole year since I started this blog!  Thank you, Meike, I honestly doubt that I would have done this had you not suggested it !  Tempus Fugit! (I only know that bit of Latin because that was the name of our yearbook from Rockdale County High School.)   In fact, I know very little and I suppose anyone who reads my blog can figure that out, but it hasn't stopped me from writing this blog.  And I still have a lot I want to write about, so keep checking in! Thanks to all who have signed up over there on the side as one of my followers or friends, as I like to think of you all.

Wait, didn't I say something up there about a giveaway?  YES!  Since today is the 21st of August, why not have a gift certificate for Amazon for $21.00?    That is in US Dollars, if anyone wins this in another country, I will figure the exchange rate out and it will be the equivalent!  What do you say?  Leave me a comment on here and I will put all the names in a hat and will draw the winner in a few days.  Now, I hope you like the video of the Muppets  that I have on here for you.  I was thinking of how little that I know and it made me think of this joke.  One thing you need to know about me, if I think a joke is funny, it will always be funny to me.  Always!
                                                               
Here we are, Richard and I, on top of Stone Mountain, smiling at you.
(And I am so sneaky, standing on a rock to make myself as tall as Richard!)

Thank you all for reading Georgia Girl With An English Heart!
 
UPDATE:  The Winner of the $21.00 Amazon Gift Card is Connie from Nonnie's Random Thoughts! Congratulations!  And a big thank you to all who left comments on here.  This was fun,  I hope to do another one soon!

  10. Congratulations Kay. I have only recently "found" you via CJ's blog. Stone Mountain was the first thing that attracted me but now it is just a joy to read your blog - often thought provoking but always thoroughly entertaining. Long may you continue. Very best wishes. Pat

  17. Hi Kay G - thanks for stopping by my blog! My sister and I are not necessarily alike in everything, but we are both NICE :}

    Yes, I, too, sometimes think I could play just about any role in Fiddler on the Roof, off by heart - I love the story SO much!

    I love your Hoppa Bus....but it loooks like it might be a bit lost!

  18. P.S. Have you ever read the lovely series by Jan Karon, about the life of an Episcopalian (sp?) priest, Father Tim Kavanagh? I have just started it and am four books in, already. The first one is called At Home in Mitford. Very easy reading, and lots of fun!

  20. Hi Again, Meant to say - David (my husband) used to drive an open top 'bus from Worthing, through Brighton (Devil's Dyke) and onward to Beachy Head and Eastbourne. Then back again. That completed one eight hour shift! He is now driving and guiding tourists around this island (Lewis), three days per week during the summer months. Sooooo your picture brought back more memories - oh heck! I am getting quite nostalgic - time I went!! Hope you are having a happy day.

  29. As your newest follower I hadn't realised your blog was only a year old. Your name seems more familiar than that through CJ and Spesh. It's good to see the view from Stone Mountain. Are they Jacaranda Trees? The lane up to The House in New Zealand is lined with them and that photo makes me feel quite homesick.
