When I planned this holiday Christmas giveaway with my kind sponsor, Wotif.com, I thought it would be easy to run and fun to do.
I was half right.
It has been tremendous fun doing it. But it was way way hard to judge.
I received more than double the entries compared to the last mrbrown Giveaway, via Twitter, email and even via the Comments section of my blog.
I read every single entry I received. And you guys made me laugh... and sometimes, cry. Your entries were witty, fun and in many cases, personal and touching.
But I only have one prize to give away. I wish I had more.
So the winner of this 3D2N stay at Bintan Lagoon Resort is...Tracy F.
Her entry, via email, reads:
"I want a holiday from mrbrown because I want to celebrate with my hubby for being able to triumph from a sick kidney dialysis patient one year ago to a healthy man who has nursed his kidneys back to health now."
And here is the best part. I don't know if you knew this or not, Tracy, but your husband was also thinking of you when he sent me his entry earlier. Because I received this from him:
"I want a holiday from mrbrown because it's been years since I've gone on a holiday with my wife. It's been a tough year for us as I was fighting off a kidney disease and struggling to get off dialysis, and all I want now is to be able to spend some quiet alone time with my beloved wife."
I was going to give it to him, but then I received your entry, Tracy, and I thought it would create a perfect circle to give it to you instead.
So Tracy and Eric, enjoy your time together and have a blessed Christmas.
