Wow! I'm truly honored to have been given not one..but 2 very nice blogging awards this week..Wow!..(blushing a little bit here now)

I want to thank Jeanie of "The Marmalade Gypsy"(http://themarmeladegypsy.blogspot.com/ )
for bestowing upon me the "E for Excellence" Blog Award


....and a thank you to Linda of "Remote Treechanger"(http://remotetreechanger.blogspot.com/)
for the beautiful "Arte y Pico" award.


Now...for receiving the "E for Excellence" award..I am to in turn bestow this award upon 10 bloggers that inspire, or that have a sense of "community"... blogs that are downright cool and inspiring,and just plain fun.

Then for the "Arte y Pico" award..I am to do the following:
Choose 5 blogs that you consider deserving of this award for their creativity, design, interesting material and also contribute to the blogging community.


Each award has to have the name of the author and a link to his/her blog.

Dear Tina,
thanks so much, will work on how to do this. Find it confusing linking things, still new at it.
I love it when you drop by.
I am a bit distracted actually, Mum in NZ in Hosp. She in 94 plus.
Keeps me alerted to the poss. that I may have to make a hurried trip.
You are very creative and have so much of interest to share always.
Love all the fun and adventure.
One odd thingy, my sister-in-law in NZ who I do not refer to, said someone sent her your blog in an email. She wonders how that came about. World is a small one. She enjoyed it.

Hey Tina,
Thank you for the award! I have tried this week to do some blogging. Wish I had more time. >sigh< Never enough hours in the day. Hah! I do fell inspired to post something new tomorrow anyway. Did I tell you Lily has a job now at a coffee shop? She started college this week too. We shall see how well she can juggle both. Hope Gustave veers far away from where you live. Uffdah, I'm glad to not have to deal with hurricanes anymore.
