My hubby asked to be taken out of the drawing and I realized I'd once had to sign up as my own follower (weird, I know) to be able to e-mail another follower through blogger. <br /><br />Mary: Please do enter! <br /><br />Amber: Will do. I'll likely do some helpful posts about dialogue and negotiation in the next month as a tie-in/reminder.<br /><br />Jemi: I was quite chuffed when I discovered the 111 and 33 connection right there in Fellowship. <br /><br />AJ: Thanks for the shout-out. Much appreciated. Strangely your bit of dialect reminded me more of Petrie from the Land Before Time (a sappy kids' cartoon about dinosaurs).
