It has been announced that Jen at Posh Point of View is the new Homecoming Queen of the Mommy Blogging World!
Let's give her a round of applause!
And, as all beauty queen rivals do, a big, fat, red-lipsticked kiss right in the middle of her forehead!!!
I always love it when they do that. It's the ultimate "you may have won, and I'm going to act like I like you, but really I'm just trying to make you uglier on national television!" Oh, those crazy biotches!
Anyway, as Second Runner-Up, I'd like to thank all of you for playing along with our "frienemies" cat-fight. Jen and I really had a terrific time trying to one-up each other, and I learned lots of new things to do with PhotoShop Elements! Really, guys, I was amazed that I was even nominated, and I knew Jen would be the winner. I never would have received the number of votes I did without her. She was so nice to play-fight with me, she really didn't have to!
And apparently, I'm so good at the snarkiness, Jen has asked me to be a contributor on The Posh Parent!
Hmmm, perhaps Jen is, as the saying goes, "keeping her friends close, and her frienemies closer?"
My articles will be an attempt to go all David Spade on the celebrities in a weekly synopsis called "The Meltdown." Today is my very first article, please head over there and check it out! And while you're at it, join the club!
Now, for the final tally of votes and my Nie Recovery Fund donation - the last I saw, I had 27. Subtract 24 (the number of previous votes), then add 1 for Jiggety Jigg at least THINKING about blogging for me (check her out, she's wicked cool!), and you get......

Seriously, what do you take me for? This is a DONATION to a REAL-LIFE FAMILY, for crimeny sakes! As a thank-you to EVERYBODY that took time out of their busy lives to vote, and because I have the right to change all the rules if I want to (it is MY blog), I'm going to use the WINNERS rules. Because, really, I feel like I've won! I think I'll even wear my tiara today and ACT like I've won!
Anyway, let me get my calculator......carry the two.....multiply by....OK! I really only like numbers in multiples of five (I know, I'm weird) so let's round this puppy up to $45! That's awesome, guys! Kudos to you! And if you'd like to send your own donation, please click here.
Thanks again, ya'll! Big, fat, red-lipsticked kisses to all of you!!!
