Oooh, I just spotted the August Raffle and bought my tickets! Wow, what great prizes ... absolutely beautiful jewelry, I really LOVE those blue and green infused necklaces!!

Jan: I too agree with everyone ... great work, what a talent! Thank you so much for hosting this month's raffle and offering prizes of your beautiful jewelry ... and that wonderful Alocasia! I have the regular green Alocasia macrorrhizos and I sure like the looks of that variegated one ... it would make a great companion to my green one. Smiling

Well, shoot. I guess I don't know when the day ends. sniff. I was gonna get at least another raffle ticket, but I see it's closed now. Gee it's only a few minutes after 6 here. What is the official closing time for raffles in general, anyone know?

Sigh. Time zones always confuse me. I never can get it straight whether to add or subtract or how much. Rolling my eyes.

Woofie - you always add cuz you're Pacific time. Rockies are 1 hour, Mississippi River 2 hours, Atlantic coast 3 hours. Except for Arizona & Illinois, defends as they don't follow DST so the could be 2 or 3 hours depending on the time of year (summer add an extra hour)..

I just wish we'd do away with DST. Getting up in the dark in the winter doesn't save any energy. DST is so World War II.

When's the raffle?

You don't have relatives in Hawaii to confuse you further! Hilarious!

And I agree! If they want to fiddle with the time, why not just adjust it half an hour whichever way makes the idiots in charge happy and just leave it there? Hilarious!

Do we have some winners yet, or is it too early? We are having a heat wave now and I don't think I can think any more. I just read that it is closed so I'll wait for my jewelry. Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing
