I've been lucky enough to get bunches of awards, and for this I am grateful and well, kinda humbled *blushing*
Something really special happened to me recently, though, that made receiving some of these bloggy gifts top-notch...they were specifically made with me (and a few other bloggy buddies) in mind. I was downright, flat-out floored. This one was awarded to me by Mary of Work of the Poet. Here are her sweet words:
Now I will NOT subject you to the song by Debbie Boone that she sang in 1978. But I will quote from Rabbi Michael Strassfeld in order to describe the people I think deserve this award:
"Light gives of itself freely, filling all available space. It does not seek anything in return; it asks not whether you are friend or foe. It gives of itself and is not thereby diminished."

This is so thoughtful, Jenn. Thanks so much for thinking of me.
Bluedreamer said my blog is interesting. Well, that's a first *wink* and I so appreciate you thinking of me, Blue *huge hug*
The Vasquez3 says that she totally hearts my blog. Ahhhh. How killer kute is that? Thank you my new sweet, hilarious bloggy buddy. I love you much too *wink*
The Vasquez3 also gave me this one. She said, "This one goes to EVERYONE on my blogroll...yes really, cuz y'all are my daily dose of bloggy goodness...yes, i really read ya everyday my google reader tells me you posted!" hehehe...I'm on her blogroll *jumping up and down and clapping like an idiot* (You're one of my daily doses too, miss thing.)
I got this one from Storyteller who said, "I'd like to pass it along to the following bloggers who do nice things everywhere they go!" The awardees are:
Thank you, Storyteller. You are a treasure.

In honor of Mary who graciously created a button, here's my feeble attempt at doing the same. Stop laughing. It's not that bad. This goes to my visitors of yesterday, today and everybody who gave me an award above:
*dancing around the room like a freak* That. Was. A. Load. This post is getting too long. Stay tuned to see who my other recipients are *curtsey* and thank you for stopping by. Beverages and snackies are now being served on the terrace.

Chuck of Foster Me Up made a comment today that we need some new awards. That prompted me to come up with this award which I mean to give to a number of wonderful bloggers who indeed "light up my life."

Meme Monday #6
Melanie started this Meme Monday as a way to get some linky love and spend one day getting caught up on all tags. Rock and roll, sweet Melanie. Let's have some fun *yippee*
Bringing this post back by popular demand. Mel, of Attitude, The Ultimate Power requested a couple weeks ago we bring it back to life so as to reach 1000. I know. I'm slow. If you haven't participated and you want your Technorati authority to jump forward by leaps and bounds, then follow the instructions and play along. If you click on Mel's link above, he too gives full instructions. If you have questions, please ask, and I will help you any way I can. I'm nice like that. This is really easy, mind you, and anybody can play. You don't have to be tagged. *smackies**Start Copy Here*
You do not have to be tagged to play along. This game is simple and so are the rules.
1) Copy from *Start Copy Here* through *End Copy Here*
2) Add your site(s) to the list. Just be sure to post at each site you add.
3) Tag or don’t tag, your choice, however, the more tags you create the bigger the list will grow.
4) Let me know your blog’s name and url by leaving me a comment HERE. I will add you to the master list. (If you would like the scroll box code, leave me your email address and I will email it to you.)
5) Come back and copy the master list back to your site, often. This process will allow late-comers to get as much link benefit as the first ones in.

 You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel like an adult, and you're optimistic about life. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. You're still figuring out your place in the world and how you want your life to shape up. The world is full of possibilities, and you can't wait to explore many of them. |

I have no shame. Though I am a serious talent and should be in Hollywood *giggling with intermittent snorts*, I had to put on my begging shoes to start up a new band. My hard work paid off though, because I'm in. They like me! They really like me! I'm the tall one over there on the left...Note to self: I shall never forget about the little people.
These were the turn of events: Bud Weiser of WTIT Tape Radio: The Blog started all the ruckus by stealing this meme. Great idea, I say, because when I stumbled across it at Sandee's and then later Mimi's place, I too thought of stealing it. Bottom line: I got'r done and so can you. Just follow the simple instructions. Methinks you'd be smart for getting linky love any way you can. Good times. *smackies*
Here we go. You are about to encounter sheer, blushing joy.
1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random The first article title on the page is the name of your band.
2. http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3 The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.
3. http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/ The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.
4. Use your graphics program of choice to throw them together, and post the result as a comment in this post. Also, pass it along in your own journal because it’s more amusing that way.
I tag the following (with no pressure, but c'mon. this is really a load of thrills!):
...Tell Mimi you've played - she's got the master and will add you.

***end copy here***
Here are my nominations (keeping in mind I have other favorites, and this is really killing me):
1 - Sandee from Comedy Plus. Sandee is an amazing person and has a refreshing, professional and very funny blog. I can't say enough kind things about her. She gives to the nth degree, is always kind and will do anything for anybody. If I miss a post, it's because I've died.
2 - MamaGeek of What Works For Us. Severe humor different from anybody I know. Great photography skills and super mom. I don't miss a day of her site. She's killer kool.
3 - Alison from EleanorBlog. From Scotland, she is a guide at a castle and studies genealogy, history and photography. All of this is in her blog, in addition to information on art, films, music and Eleanor of Castile, medieval queen and wife of King Edward I of England. She's not only fascinating (and very sweet), but so is her blog.
4 - Pam from Random Thoughts. Pam is a teacher, a wife, a mom, and a friend. Being a teacher sums it up for me here. Additionally, her blog is lively and colorful and always full of happiness.
5 - Storyteller of Small Reflections. She "lends light and builds bridges." Her site is full of soul and the time she spends in meditation shows via the insights she shares. She too is a teacher -- of 34 years. Need I say more?
Anyone else wishing to participate, please feel free to do so and ensure that after posting go here and list your 5 nominations.
I tag the above 5 nominees and anybody else who would like to play.

Meme Monday and Awards Too #5
Melanie started this Meme Monday as a way to get some linky love and spend one day getting caught up on all tags. Rock and roll, sweet Melanie. Let's have some fun *yippee*
---A meme from my buds, Sandee and Blue. A little late, but better than never and this one was fun, so thx friends.
Here are the rules:
You are about to send a virtual Message In a Bottle across the Blog Ocean. Leave a message in the sand or on the bottle. Write anything you wish. Be a pirate or a poet. Serious or silly. Anonymous or not. What message would you like to send out to the universe?
Message In A Bottle Meme
1. Compose a message to place in your virtual bottle.
2. Right click and SAVE the blank graphic below.
3. Use a graphics program of your choice to place the message on the picture.
4. Post the Message In a Bottle meme and your creation on your blog along with these rules.
5. Tag a minimum of 5 bloggers - or your entire blogroll - to do the same. Notify them of the tag. Your virtual bottle will remain afloat in the blogosphere ocean for all blogernity (That's a Mimism for blog + eternity).
Sandee, once I hit the publish button, I'll head on over to Mimi's to let her know I've played *lovies*
I'm not tagging this week, 'cause I did so many last week. I want you guys to keep visiting, you see. But, please play if you like! No tag necessary. Seriously now.
Teach tagged me for a Dream Gadget meme. There were no rules...though I figure I am to post some gadgets I'd like to have. (Hope that's right, Mary!) Funny thing. I could only think of one :? She had three. So, if ya wanna play - do 3!
The second-generation Sony $999 BDP-S1 Blu-ray disc player features a more substantial remote than the Toshiba HD DVD player and was the quietest among the three machines tested.Again, no tags. But, if you haven't played these games and you really must, do one or go crazy and do them both.
AWARDS
My new bloggy buddy, Storyteller awarded me with the next four. Yes. Four. She's a generous giver and a sweetie too. I'm so glad to get to know you, cyber friend.
KC -- How sweet that you would give this to everyone that comments. I think you're cool too, KC!
The first 10 visitors who comment may take the awards. It means a lot that you visit. I will also be giving some of them away at a later date to special recipients. *smoochies*

My Other Half.
In case some of you didn't know, Robin is 1/2 the reason I'm writing my memoir. We were taken away from our home, our parents and as the story unfolds, she is the one who suffers traumas I will never face. I watch her go thru pain. That is my trauma. My pain. But, together we struggle; together we survive. Here's to you, Robin.
