I won !!
No, not the lottery, but I am on
I have been sick for a few weeks, I can barely talk, barely breathe... singing was the last thing I thought about doing.
I got a text message today as a reminder that today was the last day to submit an entry to the Christmas song contest one of the radio shows was hosting.
I was shocked when they played MY song as the winner!!!
:faint:
I can't be out of money... I still have checks left!

Congratulations! What did you sing? Hope you're feeling better.
