SPIN OUT 2007: FINALLY!

Hi all! Good news! The Spin Out 2007 Prize Packages have been awarded! I have sent emails to all of the winners - please, please, PLEASE! Check the email address you used to email me your raffle information. Also, PLEASE CHECK YOUR SPAM FOLDERS! I can't tell you how many times email gets dumped into spam!

I realize that many of you are not at the place where you usually read your email (ie: work - I've gotten a few Out of Office Replys already.) I'm sorry for the timing of all of this - but don't fret. Your box will be waiting for you. And maybe if you read this you'll check your email? (And your SPAM filter?)

The emails all came from the same address: cara@spin-out.org.

Whew!

I also want to take a moment to sincerely apologize for the length of time it's taken me to award these prizes. If I had had any kind of inkling what a humongous undertaking this would be - that the bulk of the work would coincide with the exact same time that my business is at it's busiest. And that this year my business would be busier than ever. And that I'd be pregnant and sick and have half the energy I usually have - well, to be honest, there wouldn't have been a Spin Out this year. Last year Spin Out was in June - which gave me the whole summer to get things out and still have plenty of time before work got crazy. And there were maybe HALF the prizes to give away. And work wasn't as crazy as this year. And I wasn't pregnant and sick.

I truly appreciate that you have not given up on me. Know that I want these prizes out of my house as much as you want to see them in the winners' hands. I'm reminded daily (by the boxes ALL OVER THE HOUSE) that I haven't fulfilled my obligations. I always fulfill my obligations. My integrity is something I treasure and I'd hate to think that someone might question it because I've been sincerely overwhelmed this year.

To all of the people who so generously donated to the raffle and to all of the vendors who so generously donated the prizes: I AM SORRY. Truly sorry.

Thank you.

I will be announcing a list of winners and the remaining prizes that were never featured sometime in the coming week. I want this all done (and hopefully OUT OF MY HOUSE!) before my birthday. Think of it as my present to me AND you.

Thank you again for your patience and continued support.
L, C
