Fabulous Followers Gratitude Giveaway


Gratitude Giveaway for My Fabulous Followers
Nov. 17-Nov. 28 For “My Funny Dad, Harry”


I have read quite a few books about dysfunctional families so thought it was time for one that is heartwarming and uplifting.  The short funny stories in this book about my dad, our family, his cats and the strange things he did are all true.  Many of us deal with aging parents so can relate to me as I try to help and care for my dad.  If you are an elderly parent, you will probably identify with my dad.  I suspect you will smile, chuckle and may even laugh out loud but also will find parts very touching that may bring a tear to your eye.  This is an emotional read that will hopefully inspire you to cherish the people in your day-to-day life and may even get some useful tips. 
 
In appreciation to my fabulous followers of this blog, I am giving away an autographed copy of my book, “My Funny Dad, Harry” and a DVD featuring him to a follower who leaves a comment stating they would like to have it along with their email or blog URL so I can let them know if they win. All those who express a desire to have it by November 28 will be eligible. I will put each entry on a piece of paper and let my cat Spunky Doodle choose the winner since I got Spunky from my dad’s yard. (This giveaway is limited to the U.S.)  If I do not hear from the winner with their address by the end of November, another winner will be selected.

Hi Karen: I would love for a chance to win My Funny Dad....I am a lover of memoirs...especially about aging parents. My mom has recently gone into a nursing home and has dementia...I will probably write a book about her one day...she's a hoot. I am also a cat lover...I have 3 spoiled babies at home.

Best ~ Missy

I would love to win this book. I cared for my mom the last few years of her life and it was sad, watching her letting go of life. This book sounds as if would be up-lifting.

I would love to win this book, not because it reminds me of a parent, they are long gone, but me and my husband are in our mid 60's and might (probably ) be there one day!!

I am a new follower. I would love to win. Sounds like a wonderful book. I work in Assisted Living for the elderly and everyday I learn sometime from them. And everyday someone makes me laugh. They are quite the characters when they become older.

Hey, Karen! I don't know why I never followed you on Google Friend Connect, sheesh! But I have your blogs in my feed reader, so I have been following you all along. At any rate, I am an official GFC follower now.

I already entered your contest, so I'm just popping in to say HI. :D
I'm here for the Blog Jog. I was away from the computer on Sunday, so I'm catching up today.
