Wheee!! Count 'em...9!!!

Yes!!! CC*AA matched 9 days worth of files this month! When I read it I literally began shaking! 5 of those days were part of Chinese New Year when little/no files were logged in but that's just fine with me. There are still 9 less LID's to cover before I'll see sweet Hannah's face!

9 days is the most LID's that have been covered in one batch in the past 18 months and this batch was also received only 22 days after the August batch which is the shortest amount of time between batches since I started keeping track over 2.5 years ago! Check out all those glass beads moving from the left jar to the right!

See...lots and lots to be excited about! Want to hear just one more thing that makes me smile today? Adding this batch to my stats and averaging it out currently brings my referral guesstimation back to April with travel in June. Yippee...we're getting closer rather than further away.

There are now only 42 more days to be matched before it's my turn for Hannah's referral. The bottom of my countdown jar is still covered with glass stones but it won't be for long.

Check it out...the right jar definitely has more than the left...yippee!!

  5. I love the jar idea. Sometimes it helps to have a visual doesn't it?

    I can't wait until it's your turn. You have been such a support for so many people. I imagine that blogger will be just a frenzie when it's your turn.

  8. I found your blog through the Salsa Family blog. I really love how you do the glass stones each month to show how much closer you are getting to your goal. How great that you are NINE days closer. Wohoo! =)

  21. I'm a-hopin' for all those March DTC'ers that things speed up! I miss that group - I need to stop over more often to the Yahoo group and see what's up with everyone.
