Blame the Hockey!

March 30, 2011

Well wouldn't you know, I have been nominated for the Blog of the Month at FTLOB!  To say I am excited is an understatement.
Now...I am sure there is a science to being nominated, and getting the votes.  Just like in advertising, you have to connect with your audience.  Make them want to return again and again.  You have to get the word out there...letting people know you are nominated. Your blog should stand out when compared to the other blogs...It should say  LOOK AT ME!!!!
LOOK AT ME!!!
However...this nomination has come at the near-end to the 2010-2011 hockey season.  After all, this blog's title is Tales of a Hockey Wife.  So my time and energy is being spent packing up a home...getting  things ready to go to our cottage for four months, helping my daughter prepare to change schools, finishing up the fitness classes I have been teaching...and plan for TWO birthday parties next week!

So....I will not be able to get new posts up in a timely fashion...and therefore I cannot "rally" the votes.


So as much as I would love for you to head over to FTLOB and nominate Tales of a Hockey Wife....
I ask that you understand...the month of April will be a busy one...where my posting will probably be sporadic...and most posts will consist of me complaining that I should have married a dentist (as my daughter pointed out here)....

I am already in awe that I have over 200 people following me, which makes me feel like someone out there finds humor in my life, and can laugh along with me!  But the best part is the fact that I have more blog followers than my sister...which makes me a winner in a little game we like to play called "who is better"!
