June's Most Valuable Oodler!

Rating: 3 votes, 5.00 average.
We're very happy to congratulate June's MVO, Donna K! Donna is a fun, vibrant person and we enjoy having her as part of our MVO family. Below, she shares the love she has for her family, friends, and GSN. She also talks about her favorite games, and enthusiastically encourages others to keep practicing and playing.

YEAH! I am truly ON TOP OF THE WORLD to be June's Most Valuable Oodler and believe me that the Golden Oodle is really a special and meaningful possession!

Some people already know me from facebook but I'll give you a small blog about myself. I am Donna, and I still am fairly new to GSN. I logged in initially about one year ago and thought what kind of website am I in and what in the world are oodles. Needless to say, I logged in again four months ago and really started playing GSN Games and have been hooked on this website.

I have a spinal disability that makes it very difficult for me to by physically active but I will not let my mind go to waste. GSN really keeps me on my toes mentally. At first all I played was Wheel of Fortune for oodles, but I eventually spread my wings and started playing every game GSN offered, whether daily, weekly or monthly. I've gotten better at Big Money, Swap It, Mahjong Dimensions, Solitaire Rush and even Spades. What was funny, I tried to learn Spades with friends and could never get the hang of it - on the computer I was in the upper 70% range! What can I say.? Secret - there is one game I don't care for and that is Dynomite Time - I am horrible at this game so no challenges, okay?

I am 60 years old, live with a great man, Len, who loves me even though I am disabled. I stay upbeat for the most part and I am stubborn, honest, shy (friendly when I start to get to know you) and I never judge people. I am me and you are you - we can all get along if we try.

I have just started using facebook recently and enjoy my conversations with Rhonda, Cheryl, Diane and May. Rhonda and Cheryl I am in touch with daily and I feel like I have finally found what true friends are all thanks to GSN.

On May 12th I won the $250 Daily Cash Sweepstakes and I got my check two days ago. I treated myself to a Kindle Fire! I've always wanted one and now I can take GSN and Facebook with me wherever I go - isn't that great!

The best thing about GSN is that even though I am in chronic pain, I will not stay in bed! I have a certain chair in the living room and Len hooked the computer into our 42" flatscreen TV and before you know it 7 hours have passed because I am so focused on winning and going for those oodles! GSN is the best pain pill anybody ever produced - it works for me every day and doesn't have any side effects - maybe one - being happy!

This is such an honor and I am truly blessed to have my personal family and my GSN family. This means the world to me. All I can say is GSN has been a lifesaver for me and I can't even begin to express how I feel about the and my facebook friends I've made - you know who you are!

As GSN says practice, practice, practice and believe you me, I do every day and night. Thanks so much and I am really honored and will continue to try to live up to GSN's standards and do right and who knows - maybe one day I will have the opportunity to welcome in someone new and give them the encouragement and advise that I now get from my friends.

Again, I am truly honored and proud to be June's Most Valuable Oodler and to own my very own Golden Oodle! KEEP ON OODLING AND GAMING - IT'S WORTH IT! - jigsawdonna

    Welcome to MVO Club "Love your Photo", Ya'll look so excited to be honored as June's MVO and are so very deserving of it.

    Seriously Hon, your story really moved me, it was like looking in a mirror, [cept, ya'll have more hair than I . We're both 60, disabled, spinl cord injury and suffer chronic pain. So know how much of a Blessing it is to you to have such a wonderful person like Len in your life. Having the Love and Support of a good man, does make the quality of our lives better. Add to that GSN, and winning prizes, is icing on the cake.

    Big Hugs and God Bless You Donna and Len

    Congrats, Donna, on being selected as Most Valuable Oodler for the month of June. I'm trying to get the Golden Oodlemobile out to you from here in California. Don't know why they sent it here when I was MVO for May -- I haven't been able to drive for seven years. But remember to always look on the sunny side of life.

    Is there really an oodlemobile because I would definitely drive it with pride around Cincinnati! Wonder how many odd stares I would get?
