Lovin' for the Long Haul challenge

So, I am in the gallery sporadically, but I always notice the lack of loving, particularly when school starts. I miss offering challenges to you, so I have a continuous one that could win you a haul of goodies!
This is a commitment to visit the gallery daily and leave at least 5 loves each day. Most of you check in here daily and really, how long does it take to find 5 layouts to praise in our awesome gallery?
Every week, I will draw a random name from those who do this daily to recieve a little goody in the mail, and before Christmas, I will draw a big winner who will win a stash of goodies from me.
Interested? All you have to do is post here that you are doing this, and then, each day when you leave your love, post back that you did it. I'm not asking you to post the links. You are on your honor here! I will check to see who made it through the week and draw a name for a winner. Those folks who complete the week will also have their name entered for the grand prize. Every week you complete gets your name in the drawing another time. Okay? Who's with me?!

I think it would keep it shorter if you all just updated your original post. I will post a new one at the beginning of each week. Okay? Great!

10/12 - I was actually pretty good about leaving love in the galleries before this project started, and have only missed 1 day of it since this started. But admittedly, I kept posting here because I thought little bits of rewards were going to be done along the way, not just at the end. So...in my current grumpy mood, I'm going to stop posting here. I won't stop leaving love though, because that part I enjoy...I just have come to hate posting on this thread!!

***I know I have been MIA on leaving love for a while. My son had surgery in NYC and we had been traveling back and forth every day the whole time he was there. He is home now and doing well but it is taking me time to get myself back into the swing of things. I haven't been on the boards that much and haven't been in the gallery either. I feel bad that I broke my great streak of leaving love every day, but I will be back in there soon again and will try and leave extra when I can (which is something I usually do anyway). I hope to get scrapping again soon too!***
Oh and btw I have not been doing this for any reward or prize. I just love seeing all the wonderful work in the gallery and I love to tell someone whose work stood out to me how much I admire what they did. I will be back in there again soon!
