And the winner is...

Thanks to all of your votes, Maisie's bento was the first place winner of the recent contest hosted by Not Exactly Bento! I really appreciate all my readers, friends and family taking the time to vote and also for following along on Maisie's bento blog. You can check out the other winning bento and if you missed it, all the bento entries.

I'm going to get the names together of all the people who voted for Maisie's bento and we'll have a little contest of our own with Maisie picking the winner. The prize being, the one you helped me win plus something that I will add to the pot. I will get this done in the next couple of days so keep checking back for the prize winner announcement.

It's difficult to believe that it's been eleven days since my last post and I truly appreciate all the comments wishing us to feel better and the emails inquiring if we're all right. With my back being out, just keeping up with daily life has kept me more than occupied. In addition I like all my posts to have some sort of piccie and trying to get a picture of the busy Maisie has been close to impossible. I'm happy to say that Maisie is 100% better and active as always, my back is about 75-80% better, having both it's good and bad days. I hope to get back to my regular couple of times a week or at least once a week posting now that I'm moving better and off the wonderful, addictive, make my head happy who cares about the stinking pain, I hope you don't expect me to do anything productive or be coherent percocet.
