I'm So Excited!

Have you ever been so happy for someone else that you can hardly stand it? Like, you want to run around the neighborhood banging on doors screaming "Guess what, guess what!" Yeah? Well, that's how I feel right now. My best writerly friend is on the verge of having some very good news and I can't wait to confirm it and share it with the world...

Stay tuned for "my" good news!

Are there any experiences like this that you've had in your life? If so, share please!

Can you at least give us a hint? I love exciting news but I hate being kept in suspense.

When I got engaged, I felt like screaming to the heavens, "I'm getting married!" I didn't but it's never too late.

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Wendy, I'll let you in on it as soon as I can!

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

CCD, Hint: It's something REALLY great!

When did you get engaged? Was it a long time ago or recently? No matter what, like you said, it's never too late!

Robert A Meacham said...

Debra,
I am here by chance. I guess I found you on another blog, yes, now I remember, it was Lady Glamis. Sorry for the intrusion but your I'm So Excited got my attention. I am always happy to know someone has gotten great news.

:)

Kelly Polark said...

Yay for your friend! Looking forward to hearing about an inspirational writing success!

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Robert, I'm so glad "chance" brought us together! You are most certainly not an intrusion. (Lady G rocks, btw.) I hope you'll stop back by from time to time. And, yes - isn't it wonderful when those we love, respect and admire have good news? The cheerleader in me lives on!:-)

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Kelly, Stay tuned. I hope to have good news to report before the week is out...

Joanne said...

Can never get enough of good news! Can't wait ...

Vegas Linda Lou said...

Fingers crossed!

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Joanne, Ain't that the truth! Like Tom Petty says, "The Waiting is the Hardest Part!"

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Linda, Thanks! BTW: How was the Vegas Writer's Conf?

Michelle D. Argyle said...

Traci said...

Sheesh! Been waiting all night! LOL

Vikki said...

Oooh...exciting news is the best kind of news! ;>) Can't wait to hear what it is!

Alas, I have no exciting news to share. I did make REALLY good cappuccino foam this morning. That's kind of exciting, I guess.

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Michelle, Me either!

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Sorry, Traci! I'm moving as fast as I can!

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Vivi, REALLY good cappuccino foam? Now that's what I call EXCITING!!!;-)

Rebecca Anne said...

Good Lord, just like a writer, leave their readers HANGING~~ (smile)

Well, I hope it goes wonderful for your friend, whatever it may be and I'll be watching my feed reader for an update.

And I hope you are having a beautiful day yourself!
Rebecca

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Rebecca, I know. Aren't we writers a pain in the neck? I hope to have some good news to report soon...

Unknown said...

Thanks for asking! I got engaged the day after Christmas, 2008.

Still waiting for the good news!

Lynnette Labelle said...

Looking forward to your announcement. I have a hunch it's writing related, but I could be wrong.

Beth said...

That's wonderful! Yes, I have experienced that great feeling when hearing good news from a friend or loved one. It's very cool, and the exact opposite of Schadenfreude! :)

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Lynette, Hmmm. Writing related? Do you think? Maybe, maybe not...;-)

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

Beth, I'm so impressed how you use that word in a sentence!

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

CCD, So, you're newly engaged? Congrats!!! (Or, as my parents would say, Mazel Tov!)

Pen Pen said...

AHHH!!!! I'm SO excited!!! Can't wait to hear!!

Debra Lynn Shelton said...

PenPen, I hope you'll be able to mooch away soon. In the meantime, I'm still waiting...
