Trust me, I know how stressful the season can get! That's why I want to relay this important message, brought to you by googly ambassador @outerground: "Relax ..and Breathe!"

🥇 And Our Grand Winner is: 🥇

@davor27 with
"Farola protects herself from the sun"

Another winning entry by @davor27! Kudos!

aaaaand

_{another drumroll, please}

🥁 this week's Googly-Delegation-Winner is: 🥁

@hethur240

you'll receive the #GooglyPrize delegation of 87.186 SP for a week.

_{Ok... today's winners are making decisions really tough for me. @davor27 won last week AND still has a running minnowbooster delegation from Issue 19. @outerground sports more than 700SP of his own and there's @hethur240 who received last week's googly delegation already... ugh. To make my life easier - today's delegation will simply go to the winner with the lowest self-voting quota: that's @hethur240 (again) with 6.1%}

The #GooglyPrize continues!

And guess what...
Issue 24 will be due on Christmas eve, Dec 24th!

Christmas themed entries will score bonus points!

^{It doesn't have to be stereotypical, whatever you associate with the season, tell me about it with #GooglyEyes}

No-Conditions Policy:

No mandatory resteems, upvotes or follows required!

just:
- get some #GooglyEyes -
- stick them onto something -
- take a picture -
- post it with the tag #googlyeyes -

DONE! You're qualified!
