I Want to Do Something for You | Chickens in the Road

Click here to vote! (Following your directions and moving this to the top!)

You are the most wonderful people in the world.

If I don’t get the SAM-e job, being part of this process will have been more than worth it to have experienced the love that you have shown to me. I can’t repay it. I can’t thank you enough. I have been stunned, shocked, disbelieving, overwhelmed, and incredulous by your efforts on my behalf. I hate to ask you every day to vote. Sometimes I wish I’d never gotten into this! Not because I don’t want the job (I do), but because I feel as if it’s such a burden for you. One day, a friend emailed me and told me about this contest. In five minutes, without thinking it through, I filled out the form and I was in it.

And my life has not been the same since.

My goal with this website every day is to give to you. And from now until December 7, I have to ask for something from you. I want to do something for you. Here is what I’ve come up with and I’m open to suggestions of what more I can do for you. (Let me know if you have ideas!)

If you have posted about me on your blog or your forum, anything where I can provide you a link, please comment here on this post, tell me that you’ve posted about me, and leave the link to your blog or to your forum. I will put them all together in a post in the next few days and post your links! If you are here, then there are probably other people here who would enjoy your blogs and your forums. Let me share them.

I know many others of you have posted on your Twitters and Facebooks and other places or just emailed people or gone around your offices telling people to vote, and so I need to find another way to thank everyone. I’m going to run some book giveaways in my forum. Post there once per day and I’ll have a random drawing every day to give away a copy of one of my books. Even if you are a man and don’t actually want one of my romance novels, it would possibly make a nice Christmas gift for someone on your list. I will autograph the book and sign it to anyone you like. I’ll have a winner every day. (This is in addition to the Chickens in the Road calendar contest that is ongoing till Thanksgiving Day. See details below on that.)

Because I set my blog a day in advance, at night, to be sure my blog is waiting for you the next day no matter how early you get up, I will be posting a new book giveaway topic every day to include the link in the next day’s post. I will post the topic late at night, after making the random drawing from the previous topic.

Today’s book giveaway topic is here. I will note in each day’s topic what the title of the book is that I’m giving away.

You can read all about my books here.

By the way, you can also embed my video on your blog or post the link on your Facebook and Twitter.

Here’s the link to the video: Suzanne from Walton, WV. To embed the video on your blog, click the “embed” bar to the right of the video here.

And now for your daily public service announcement:

***
Click here to vote!
***

The vote watch is here if you can handle the nail-biting addiction.

The voting runs through December 7. These are early days yet and the competition is working it, so please stay with me!

And don’t forget–comment here for your first entry of the day for the 2010 Chickens in the Road Calendar giveaway. Then go here to make additional entries: The Chickens in the Road forum.

Don’t know what I’m talking about? All the contest details are here. (But remember to come back here to make your comment entry (on this post).

THANK YOU!

It’s funny, you give us so much with your blog–interesting stories, beautiful pictures, recipes, a good perspective on life. SO when the contest came along and you asked us to vote for you, many of us were pleased to have an opportunity to give something back to you. But that has boomeranged and now you want to give us something because we gave you something because you gave us something.

Suzanne,

I think this is the first time I’ve actually commented on your blog. I have been bad about reading the last few weeks, but I read about the job offer yesterday and immideatly voted. I think you would do a great job. You have a lovely site and are so much better about posting rutinely than I am.I find your stories about life on the farm very cheering. I’ve also gotten many ideas about how to spiff my blog up from you. I have a perminent link to it from mine because I do check back rutinely when my life is less hectick(how do you spell that?)

Hope you get the job!

Hey Suzanne, I just voted again!
I have posted twice about you and the contest now. This is the latest one (I embedded the video). http://chaotictendancies.blogspot.com/2009/11/another-special-request.html That post also has a link to the first post I wrote about you in it as well. I don’t have many readers, but I did have a couple people tell me they voted for you when they saw my first post. Every vote helps!
My blog isn’t exactly a country blog at all. It’s more of a “Here’s how chaotic my life can be on a daily basis and how I’m trying to fix that.” That’s one of the reasons I love your blog so much. You give me hope that is CAN be done. You seem to be constantly working on something, plus taking care of 3 kids and those animals and still find time to blog, cook, can, etc. You wear me out just reading about it! I am really rooting for you to get this SAM-e job!

I agree with Julia. I am voting for you every day because of what I have already received from you. I love your blog. I love your recipes. I adore the pictures of the animals. Like you said in your video…your living on a farm so that I don’t have to. I would love to, but I don’t want the work.

All you need to do for me is keep blogging.

One of your posts (When It Rains) is one of my favourite reads on the web, so it appears on a page on my blog (here: http://misswiniw.wordpress.com/fave-blogs/) I also have you in my links list ’cause you and your farm are awesome and I think you need to be shared with all! (I also like to randomly retweet you – teehee) XXX

Just realized that you can vote from your cell phone as well as your computer, giving Suzanne 2 well deserved votes per day from each of us-so if you are able, use both and let’s help Suzanne win this thing! She brings us so much and asks for nothing in return, amd it’s in the holiday spirit to give to others.

Go Suzanne-let’s rock this thing!

Dear Suzanne. I am thankful for your blog. I log on and enjoy your gifts. Your blog has brought happiness and joy into my life. I do not have a blog and I often say that next to my daily talk with God that you are a life brightener in my day. Thank you for sharing your life with me. It has been a rough two years for me as my husband’s business failed and God called my mother home. I am so happy I linked onto your blog.
My prayers are with you and your family this Thanksgiving. You are one talented lady! Thanks for being there for me

Like many of the others the chance to vote for you was a way to give back to you for the fun I have reading your daily posts. I don’t have a current blog of my own other than on SPARKPEOPLE but I have posted there about the contest and several of my readers have been voting. I vote daily from desktop and laptop and my 41 y/o married son has been voting from his desktop and laptop because he has been reading your blog, or well, drooling over the recipes he wants his wife to try (she’s not a computer person). I have also sent out some emails with the voting links and have gotten some good response from them. The folks with Facebook and Twitter probably get out the most votes for you!!

Wishing you all the best in this contest because you really are the best candidate for the job!

I have your blog link on the sidebar of my blog, hoping that some of my followers will discover you too.
Thanks for the great recipes. Happy weekend. ~Natalie

Suzanne, your blog and RECIPES are your payment for my votes! BTW…made your cranberry sauce yesterday…used just one bag of cranberries/adjusted recipe accordingly. I ate half of it…yum. Off to buy cranberries today to make enough to can!!!

Hi Suzanne,

Sometimes it’s difficult to understand what we do for others. Your blog is all we need. I’ve commented on this before, but I just can’t imagine starting my day without your blog. Heck, it would be like trying to start my day without coffee. I shudder at the mere thought!!!

Okay, I’m heading off to vote. Coffee. Suzanne. Vote. Easy peasy.

(And I’ll be making some Grandmother Bread this morning. MMmmmmm)

Good morning, Suzanne. As I stated in my comment last night, Phase 2 votes count only 20% towards winning while the judges decision on qualifications counts 80% as stated in the terms of the contest. The top vote getter may not necessarily win by votes alone. Also, under ABILITIES it mentioned considering testimonials from friends and family. I asked if it would be possible to send our own personal testimonials concerning your website and your ability to faithfully post it everyday directly to Sam-E. This would definitely show Sam-e that your bloggers feel you are more than capable to handle the Sam-e blogging job. Also, it would show the size and magnitude of the positive impact you and your website have on our lives! It’s worth a shot and I’m sure there are many out there who would gladly type a small testimonial to Sam-e on your behalf. If you can check with Sam-e and see if this is possible, the flood of testimonials would surely give you the edge. We want you to win!!!

Love the book give away idea. The thing is, every person I’ve ever told about your blog becomes immediately addicted to it. The pictures are wonderful and the writing is down to earth, funny, and the food always looks yummy. It is a vicarious thrill to leave the office and step into Clover’s world. All that and duck butt fluff too. What’s not to love?

I have voted everyday. I hope you win. I do it because I enjoy your blog and recipies and pictures of all your animals and the stories as well. You have teen agers I have one so I enjoy reading how another mom is dealing with this phase of their kids life as well. So all in all I think that is payment enough for me. But its so nice for you to think of us that way. HUGS. Good luck on the contest.

Well, I look so forward to your blog every morning since I discovered you a year ago. Yours is the only one I read ever. However, I had to look up LORI’S to see why she had so many votes this morning. She is actually giving away the chance of winning $100. gift cards every Friday!! That hardly seems legal although I haven’t read the rules. I just hope the judges can see through all this and realize the Talent that you are. We love you.

Only thing I want is to see you win. This voting is driving me insane. I feel bad because I’m on vacation all next week and won’t be able to vote from work. I’ll be out of town but I’ll be sure my wife casts our votes from home each and every day. Wish this 2nd round looked more like the first…where you were able to pull away and stay there. Don’t give up on us though, we will do everything we can to get you out front!

Suzanne,
How lovely of you to do something back for your readers. It shows even more how much you deserve all the love and caring that you are manifesting. I have voted for you every day and recommended the voting link to all my friends. I see you are one of the top contenders. And, don’t worry, we’ll show those California girls (the two ahead of you are both from that big, beautiful state on the west coast) that a girl from Walton’s Mountain, WV, can get all the votes she needs.

I think you underestimate how much you actually do for your readers. They feel so blessed by you that they would jump through hoops to give you what you want. And really it is not like you are asking us to give a kidney or blood or anything it is two clicks of a mouse…who can’t do that. I know I have posted multiple times about your blog. I have posted on face book as well. Here is the link to the one I could remember. I am too lazy to search my entire site for all the links about you…not that you aren’t worth it. Here is the link to the first one I could find. http://www.heavenscentfarms.com/organizing/. Go get em girl!

Hi, I don’t understand how this works as I don’t even own a lap top computer, but I checked on Brigette to see how she was getting the votes. In the comments that were sent to her one of them states: “You can actually vote twice if you have a Firefox and Explorer laptop…once on Firefox and once on Explorer.” I don’t pretend to know what that is about, but I just thought I’d tattle. We are grateful to Suzanne for her hard work, generosity, and extreme talent and just want to give her a vote of thanks…well, many votes of thanks

My step mom wrote last night to let me know that she’ll vote every day till I tell her to stop…she’s 85 years old!!!! Yesterday my husband told me he was going to get some of the guys at work to vote for you too..he works at a huge aircraft manufacturing plant. He’s such a sweetheart. (pitchfork!)

29Ya know… I don’t have to be bought to LOVE your blog. (re: the 100 dollar giftcards giveaways) I think if you do a giveaway it should be from the heart, something special to you, something you have enjoyed, etc.. But, that is me and I am just a simple ol’ country girl from WV… living in NC. LOL

I blogged about you on Oct. 29 during the first round. I plan on embedding your video today and hopefully getting you a few more votes. You may just be my 500th post!! How cool would that be? I plan on doing a giveaway for my 500th post. I am an Active Duty Air Force Enlisted Spouse, so believe me it will not be a 100 gift card. HA

Much luck to you, Suzanne… you so deserve this.

Mary is correct. I have Safari, Firefox, and Camino web browsers on my Mac. I tried voting on all three and each time it went through. I voted once for my daughter, once for my husband, and once for my granddaughter to make it legal. BUT, that is true. Each web browser shows up differently

I really want you to get the Sam-E job. I think you deserve it. You are dedicated to your readers, a fantastic role model and just a good person all the way around and those of us who read your blog learn so much from you. I have been voting my little keyboard off every day to try to do my part to help you get your goal. I don’t particularly care for the underhanded way some of the contestants are trying to win but I think either way……whether you get the job or not……you have learned that a lot of people you have never met think highly of you and your family and wish you well on your endeavors. I think you may have already won….people vote for you because they love what you stand for…they love what you do…they love you! And in this world of everyone looking out for themselves and barely having time to breathe people have stopped and taken the time to support you and made it a mission to see that you get that job…. it won’t pay the bills (this support and adoration) but in the end knowing you were loved and well thought of trumps the rest any day.
We are on your side and giving it everything we have to see that you win…….if by some quirk you don’t……we will still all be here, on your side, watching for your posts and holding you and your family warmly in our hearts.
(Sorry so long winded…I will get off my soapbox now )

Would like to vote on all the browsers (and I would) ‘cuz if that chick on the west coast can give away $$$ then we should be able to vote on other sites. I reallly want you to win.

I’ve always had your link in my sidebar so I imagine most of my readers already know you but just in case any do not…..Now they can experience a link to Happiness. I’ve labeled this post C’mon, get HAPPY….after the old Partridge Family Song because that’s just what I think of whenever I visit. Good Luck and big hugs!

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Your blog is the highlight of my morning. I come here to start my day. Sometimes I forget to start my coffee in my rush to get here to see what you will give us that day (I remember really fast though and go back to get it started). I love your blog and feel like you are a friend I look forward to spending a few minutes with every morning. Thank you for reminding me that I can share you in my blog as well. I posted about the contest and why I think my meager group of readers should join the cause for you. http://henhousediaries.blogspot.com/2009/11/please-help-my-friend.html

Good Morning from frosty Minnesota! Voted first thing this morning again and was thinking about how wonderful it is to see the support you’re getting for this! This is some really hard economic times for people and it’s nice to know that when someone has a chance to provide yet a little bit more for their family, people are willing to try and help make that happen! Yeah for everyone and their efforts!! Have a good day!

I enjoy reading your blog first thing in the morning. I can’t tell you what it means to me to know you are there. It is like being able to visit your family that lives out of town every day.Good luck.

I think Susanne’s blog already brightens everyone’s day, or completes it if you read it late. (like me) She IS a good mood. Coming here and getting lost in her posts (seriously, how did I get to the Milking Party? lol). Susanne has taught me to find the extraordinary in the ordinary. And I think we all come here to see what she has turned up next that we would have either missed, or dismissed. You are living the life I want. I’m sure others would agree.

I just found the blog a few days ago (searching for bourbon balls, yum) but now I’m addicted.
And I what to visit the farm too. In the Dare Debbie Post, I offered to pay for a few nights as a boarder… and I was serious. My daughters spring break is in March and we are headed out of Florida to the country no matter what.

I voted from my respective pc’s but the count is close. I read into the other two girls and they do not have the depth that Susanne has. Their efforts are all about the blog job, and you do not really get the sense that they are out there cheerfully writing because that’s what they love to do, the way Susanne does.

I think Susanne has more to offer the good mood people then the other candidates do.

Susanne, have you started writing a daily blog to represent what you will do for the good mood blog, show them exactly what you can do? You can put it in the side bar somewhere.

You say you want to do something for us! Suzanne…you do so much for us already! I love coming to see your posts everyday. You put a smile on my face and give me an attitude adjustment to start my days off in the right direction! (I’m sure there are many people who come in contact with me who appreciate what you do for them every day through me, by putting me in a good mood!)
I appreciate the work you do to entertain and inform us, to teach us and guide us through some fun and tasty projects!
You rock!
I hope you find out if we can write little essays to the e-SAM people, so we can tell them ourselves how we feel about you! I don’t write very good, but I can certainly tell them how much I like you and appreciate you!

OK – let me get this straight: someone is giving away money for votes? That must be against the rules. I’d report it if I had the details.

Anyway…back to focus on the positive: voted again today 7090 votes.

I don’t have a blog (I know, I’m the only person left in the USA without a cellphone and a blog), but I am a little Twitter (badword) and I set up a favorite Tweet, which means I’ll remember to tweet for you every day. Here’s today’s: http://twitter.com/AsTheNight/status/5920152004 .

And while I don’t have a blog, I’m still trying to win that makeover for my kitchen, so if you want to include that link, it’s here: http://www.naturayourworld.com/en/view_entry.php?entry=kznqac6 . I understand if you don’t and if you take out this paragraph before you approve the post. I just figure I’d be a fool to not ask, right? And maybe one of your readers will win the $500 voter prize!

I agree with the posters above…I was directed to you by a friend, who just raved about how wonderful your blog was… so I checked it out. Now, I am addicted.

You already pass the Good Mood every day in every post you right. In all things that I’ve read you always look to the positive, searching for even the tiniest bit of optimism in difficult times. Whether its something as simple as making the perfect loaf of bread (which some of us cannot do-ahem) or getting mere ounces of milk from a grumpy Clover

You do so much for your readers… voting for you is one simple way that we can do something for you

hey folks, I really want Suzanne to win the blogging job. It isn’t winning at all if it means by “any means necessary”. If other contestants want to “buy votes” via their blogs, then that is their choice and I hope they don’t win. Whatever is written here in comments is viewed by other contestants and their fans. I believe that we all want to reflect favorably on our favorite contestant ~ Suzanne! I usually begin my day with Chickens In The Road, and Suzanne manages to put a smile on my face each time with the photos, the humorous writing, and the ordinary splendor! You go girl!

I wonder if we could get this on the news? Like WCHS “Traveling WV” or one of their other segments? I’m sure it could fit in there somewhere…just trying to brainstorm. Get their viewing area behind you…that would generate a ton of votes. Just a thought….though probably a long shot.

I love your blog, Suzanne. I can’t wait to read it first thing in the morning. It always uplifts me and I’ve really needed that these last few years. And when you provide a link to your newspaper when you write for them is icing on the cake!

I hope you do not mind my saying this, but this is all getting rather complicated: contests and giveaways, posts to forums, giving back via more viral marketing. I understand that that is what they are looking for as “social marketers” or whatever those employers really are — but it is starting to feel a little icky.

I am still going to vote everyday (at least once) and will always read your blog. But to be honest, if you do NOT get this gig, it is probably because you are a more genuine person than they are looking for. I hope you do not have to sacrifice that in order to get them to pay attention to your talent and passion.

For the cell phone folks (I do not have one either), use your internet access from the phone to get to the website (same address as the computer one) and vote. Your phone is a different IP address than your computer so the vote should count.

Suzanne -
You already give so much to us! Your blog has been an inspiration to me! If you hadn’t started your blog, my family would never have had the opportunity to taste grandmother bread which is now my standard bread. I’ve consulted your blog pictures for ideas on fencing and housing for my goats and chickens. Because of you, I’m saving up for a Great Pyrenees-ish dog for my goats. In the middle of the day – especially with my work struggles of late – your blog has provided a much needed break – and given me a smile.
I have blogged about your periodically on my blog – oneoldgoat.blogspot.com and I have facebooked you so hopefully you will get the votes you need. Because you deserve it and I feel as if I’ve received so much!

Voted at home, work, and on my cell, but now I am going to use our other browsers to vote. I don’t need anything given to me for me to vote for you. I’ve posted on my FB, etc.

Hi Suzanne, my little blog is Heartsease Hollow
http://heartsease-hollow.blogspot.com

I posted about Chickens in the Road on Saturday, November 14th. It is a post about cooking and cookbooks and I wanted to share what an invaluable resource I have found your blog to be for everything from from scratch recipes to caring for cast iron skillets (thank you for that post by the way–I found it very useful and informative) to caring for chickens and goats and all other sorts of barnyard animals.
