He is the winner of the When Can I Go Home? Goodreads book giveaway. He will receive a signed copy of the book. I have got to say I love and always will have a fondness in my heart for New Zealand. Long ago when I was a young man like age 32, in the early 90's, I worked a locum tenans psychiatry job in old Palmerston North, New Zealand. working at Wanganui-Manawatu Health later named Mid-Central Health. I was fresh out of residency and life was hopeful. It seemed optimistic that you could actually pay off your loans and get out of debt as a practicing psychiatrist. -Ha!.

I love the different ways that people choose to challenge cancer, fundraise, raise awareness, and generally say Bah! in their own sweet way. I recently heard from an organisation in the US called ‘Save 2nd Base’. They work to raise funds and breast cancer awareness in memory of Kelly Rooney, who died of breast cancer in 2006 at the age of 43. And I just love the way they do it. What I wouldn’t have given to walk into an oncology clinic wearing one of these babies.

Cancer or not. Encephalitis or not. Hospital or not. Miscarriage or not. Although I will admit that one year we missed the pick-up deadline for our region, and brought our shoeboxes to a local battered women's shelter. That was a great experience, and I would highly recommend finding a local charity you can partner with so that your children get actual, hands-on experience helping desperate people. We now visit that shelter twice a year with children's and women's clothing we are no longer using, and all the toys we have sorted out of our toy room.

It was the widely acclaimed film Inception, which Erik and I thoroughly enjoyed. It was wonderfully acted, with superb plot twists, thought-provoking dialogue and tastefully done action sequences. Watching 101 movies has been part of my 101 Things in 1,001 Days Challenge and it was one of the first items on my list that I started. Although there have been periods of no movie watching (usually due to a dearth in desirable cinematic releases), I am excited to announce that I have just one movie left before I complete item #39. Of course, with something this monumental, I can’t simply watch a movie and then be done with it. Being a blogger, I have to something much, much more memorab...

She will receive a special eco-friendly prize from Blisstree! Here’s Shinyhappycarrie’s green tip: Cook food as quickly as possible! Meaning, after you get your local ingredients, pick the recipe that takes 15 minutes instead of the recipe that takes 45. Less energy required and more time to do other things. A win for you and a win for the environment! Didn’t win? Not to worry! Check back often for more Blisstree contests and giveaways. Thanks for entering – and stay green!

That’s my kind of escapism from what I am apt to call ‘my miserable existence.’ Although I call it that, it’s because I love a good moan and I am so exceptionally good at it too.
