Title: BOM so thankful!
Post by: Calendargirl on September 07, 2011, 12:25:29 am
We are so thankful for Josh Baty and all that he has done for BOM.
But Josh is SLAMMED!
between work and his new bundle of joy, Autumn (this is your queue Josh to post a picture of her) he can't run the BOM contest anymore....
so we are looking for a new person that can step up...
If you are interested, please send me a p.m.
Josh will be there to help/answer questions etc.
We know we will find a great person who is willing to fill Josh's shoes
Thanks!

 :) :) here's one of her sleeping!  :) :) :) She is getting so big.  Thanks for the opportunity to run the contest and I really hate to back down, I will help in any way that I can to ease the transition of the new guy or gal.   It's really not that hard to do, just a little too time consuming for me right now.  So... who's it gonna be?  Thanks everyone!  :) :)

That is one precious baby girl Josh. We see how peaceful and content she is, you still going to try to convince us she has been crying.

Pretty girl.  My princess turned 3 and had her first ballet class today and it seams like she was that small yesterday.

They will eventually sleep through the night ;)  I find it helps to repeat that mantra when you've done everything and they are still crying.

She looks like a little angel there though, gotta snap some pics during a fit for proof ;)

My princess' princess turned 7 the other day...and it still seems like my princess was just that small yesterday. :)

My youngest just turned six months old last week...
Hard to believe that the time has flown by so fast.

Before you know it he'll be changing my diapers...   ::)

My youngest son was here last weekend on a 6 day leave. He is 24 and I miss the times when he was Miss Autumn's age. Still got my hugs and all. Then he flew off again.

Josh, don't ever miss a chance to hug that child no matter how old she gets.

Hmm, I've been super slammed myself with work and taking care of Angie.  Don't think it's going to slow down too much for a bit either.

I could imagine this would be a very time demanding task to have to make sure you read every post in the bows section and then compile everything and make the winners image.

Just brainstorming - what if at the end of the month a thread was started in the contest section and people had to "throw their bow into the ring", taking off the tracking pressure and perhaps streamlining things a bit?

I really don't know if this would make things any easier, and I slightly cringe at getting people bent out of shape.  Just a thought to try and help.

P.s. Josh, thanks for carrying it this far and your little girl is a beauty.  I may be able to help if this gets hard pressed.

Well....there's always ...Da Yooper.....eh! I know He would do it....

I just can't do it...not Computer Literate enough...and can't seem to find the Time to take care of myself any more...let alone try and publish the BOM....it's been a bad year for Me...I met Josh at the Classic a few years ago...seen His enthusiasm with Primitive Equipment...and nominated Josh when Don stepped down...and He did a great job...so I hope that someone will carry on...

I think we'll be fine.  There have been at least 2 volunteers.
