It&#8217;s like an obsession for me.  Seriously.  People think I&#8217;m just lucky and just &#8220;win stuff&#8221; without any work at all.  My kids will say, &#8220;Mom, could you win us a trip to Disneyland?&#8221; like it&#8217;s just that easy.  Ha.  Well, as of yet, I haven&#8217;t won my key for the car contest, although my dear sweet brother-in-law casually informs me that he AND his wife both have keys, now.  But their teenage daughter hasn&#8217;t won one yet.  Like that&#8217;s supposed to make me feel better.<\/p>\n<p>Moving on.  I think winning myself a notebook computer would really brighten up my day.   First up for grabs over there is a Targus 16&#8243; laptop backpack. Second on the list of possibilities: An HP Compaq Mini CQ10 Series Notebook. I KNOW! So, go check it out <a href=\"http:\/\/borrowedlight.blogspot.com\/2010\/02\/giveaway-compaq-cq10-mini-netbook.html\">here<\/a> if you want to enter to win. I would love to be all supportive and say &#8220;Good Luck &#8211; I hope you win!&#8221; but the truth is I&#8217;d really rather I get it, which is why I&#8217;m posting this link because it increases my chances. Nothing personal. <\/p>\n<p>**It looks like my link doesn&#8217;t show up really well unless you roll over it, so I&#8217;ll give you another link<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/borrowedlight.blogspot.com\/2010\/02\/giveaway-compaq-cq10-mini-netbook.html\"><br \/>\n<strong>CLICK HERE TO ENTER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You know I can&#8217;t resist a good contest.
