Communication Is A Tough Thing

And evidently I'm not a good communicator!

The picture I included with yesterday's post was of a whole batch of books and patterns I had planned to offer up individually on separate days in separate posts for anyone who might be interested.

I didn't mean to inflict the whole bunch on any one person as I'm sure there are items in there that everyone isn't interested in.  Nor did I mean to offer up (in yesterday's post) any of the items shown.

In other words, I wouldn't send the whole assortment to the first person who commented but rather post a picture and description in a blog post each day (for the next couple/few/several days) of something I had picked FROM that pile of materials.

The picture of the whole pile was only to give you a teaser peek at the materials I would be offering as individual give-a-way items on separate days.

Clear as mud now?  

Both my daughter and hubby said they read yesterday's post and totally understood how the way I presented the give-a-way was confusing at best, and most likely misleading.  (Sigh.)  Guess this is a good illustration of how the written word (or spoken word sometimes) can be misinterpreted!  My idea and method was totally clear in my head (rattle-rattle), but very apparently not so to others.

I hope this has cleared things up now and not made it more confusing. 

I'm now going to go mainline some caffeine . . . and return to post the individual give-a-way for today.

P.S. to Tombstone Livestock - If you noticed the comment from my daughter (who quickly absconded with the copy of "Sheepish" last night), she said she would return it if she found the copy I thought she already had.  She did find her copy (mother is always right!) so I do have the extra copy to give away.  I'll be more than glad to send it on to you.  Please go to the "Contact Me" button on my right hand sidebar and zap me an email with your mailing address, okay?
