Well I finished my two hundred rooms yesterday, finally! Woohoo! (My DH may talk to me again some day...rofl)
After going back and looking at the rooms we posted I realize I did see at least six of the nobser's rooms.
I saw Princess's, King's (I am still laughing at the mowed grass), Purple Duck's, Golden Gourd's, Funfly's and Fishi's. However, I never got to judge Princess's, drat it. She had a ten and ten in my book!
As to judging, I think I was pretty consistent throughout, or TRIED to be. lol I did take into consideration all of the kids who must have made rooms, and the hardest part for me was just remembering the smaller rooms still could be a ten as well as a big room! I think I had one or two ten of tens, in the big rooms,and maybe one small ten of ten. (Not going back over that list though to find out)
But, I do still stand by my earlier words, I am SO glad that I didn't have to judge ALL of the rooms that were entered! Yes, this judging did give me a real strong idea of what it must be like to be staff. lol And, yes I do appreciate the hard work and decisions they have to do and make in these competitions.
Especially after having seen so many of the empty or nearly empty rooms I visited.
I must say those really made the extraordinary rooms stand out! lol
Now did they have an award for most monies spent on this competition by chance? I surely think I deserve that award!
