 I hope that you're happy with your bet win, bspurgeon. *grin*

NOBODY wants to see a middle-aged woman and a bumpy toad when they can see hot chicks in a Free Study.

I hope I beat you in this challenge. It'd serve you right for taking advantage of an old, old, feeble woman! *grin again*

LOL!

The Bet: Ben bspurgeon proposed:

First one to Ribbon in any challenge, the other one had to enter a Self Portrait in the next Free Study.

Although, I had a higher score (6.775) than Ben's wonderful ribbon shot... (6.6075) he ribboned first with this beauty:

And I even helped him decide to enter it. What was I THINKIN'?! LOL! *sigh*

So, here I am... looking "Bug-Eyed" at a toad in a Free Study. *grin*

Thanks for not smacking my image down... You folks are too kind.

Especially Deb Melethia! I'll be fifty in May. *sigh*

Heh! And you're still speaking to Ben? Fun shot! But whoever you got to play you is MUCH too young to have kids the age of yours.

Looking forward to finding out the full details. I do vaguely recall some sort of bet. Since I'm a fan of goofy faces, you get a positive vote from me for the slightly bug-eyed expression.
