Right…..so this week has been a crazy mixture of too much excitement, too many meetings, feeling overwhelmed, feeling stressed, being thrown into the deep end and being expected to not only swim but to win the race, 16 to 20 hour workdays, hardly any sleep, more excitement, happiness, feeling overwhelmed, etc, etc, etc….you get the general picture right?

The point is it’s all really for a good cause and it’s all really exciting and it all relates to something I adore and something I get totally excited about….which means that it’s all totally worth it:)

I was chatting to a friend earlier today and a part of the conversation went something like this:
Ruby –> hence….i’m currently an over excited zombie that’s stretched too thinly
Ruby’s friend –>  If I had any artistic talent, that’d be worth a cartoon

And then an idea hit me square in the face.  A COMPETITION! The plan is that it will work something like this.  I’ll be giving you a phrase that you have to express in a drawing of some kind.  This drawing/painting can be either seriously artistic or cartoon like or a comic or whatever you want! Then you scan your picture and e-mail it to me ( rubyletters@gmail.com ).  I’ll do a post with all the entries after the closing date and the readers get to vote for the best drawing.  The winner will be announced on the blog and I’ll make sure to send you a little prize.  I’m not sure exactly what the prize will be just yet…I guess that will depend on who wins and whether it’s a boy or a girl and how old you are etc etc etc.  But I promise it will be something nice:)

Right….so for this COMPETITION:
Phrase to express in drawing –>  I’m feeling like an over excited zombie that’s stretched out too thinly
Closing date to e-mail entries –>  9 September 2011 at midnight
Send entries to –>  rubyletters@gmail.com

I’m really looking forward to seeing what you guys can come up with:)

Love
Ruby
