Keep Your Fingers and Toes Crossed



Well, I applied. I followed my heart, and the advice of my many friends - blogland and homeland, and I did it. The package went out yesterday - the deadline for entry in the competition. Of course, as soon as I know something ...

Til' then, keep your fingers and your toes crossed!

Best of luck...you would be great on the show! Yes, I agree the books are always better than the movies...that is why I read the book first because if I see the movie first and don't like it I won't go back and read the book!:)

WOW...Good Luck!!!

Helen said...

If I am to be brutally honest with myself - and all of my blogger friends - I wasn't as wise with food choices as I should have been, I only walked four days and I did not drink enough water. Ms. Raxx suggests not weighing so often and I'm thinking "Weigh-In Once A Month Wednesday!!!" But I won't give up, promise.

bj said...

OMGosh, Artie...you will get it, no doubts here, whatsoever...you are so good at what you do and i just know you will make it.
i followed Kim Myles all thru her tests and etc when she wanted to be the design star and when she got it, i was just beside myself. i watch her Myles of Styles every week!! Next, i will be adding YOUR show to my evenings....
GOOD, GOOD LUCK, SWEET BOY....

Bridget said...

Helen said...

Please forgive me ... I totally neglected to wish you the best of luck with Design Star ... I don't think I have missed an episode and always voted. I love David Bromstad, he's my favorite so far. That is, until you are part of the scene!

The Muse said...

And to all the hopes and dreams...you know I wish them for you!!!!

Cote de Texas said...

whoa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! stinker - you kept this a secret!!! congratulations - I hope, I hope!!

Naz said...

I want to wish you the best of luck in being chosen. There is always Top Design on Bravo if HGTV isn't wise enough to pick you.
Fingers crossed for you.
