My 1st award Received in 2009!

I think I partied too much in college, because I didn't learn "big words" like these! I had to get my special translator, the Duke grad, to tell me what it meant! So, Kathy over at Emptynester and Kitty Scraps @ A Bit of Fluff, Quite Messy Really... was kind enough to bestow this award on me. You see, I've been told it means that "Bloggers who receive this award are 'exceedingly charming'. This blog invests and believes in PROXIMITY-nearness in space, time and relationships. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement (Duke grad had to explain that one too!) Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers! Deliver this award to 8 bloggers who must choose 8 more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award."
Sorry the photo is so honkin' big! Don't know where I went wrong there!


Please know that if you're not one of my 8, I still value your friendship. I chose to pick those I've been blogging friends with the longest, those to whom I haven't already passed along another award this week, or those who haven't already received it! So, here are my 8:

1) Donna @ Our Adventures with Tassie

2) Melissa Miller @ Melissa's Heart and Home

3) Eve @ Tranquility...& Turmoil

4) Sarah @ Thrifty Decor Chick

5) Debbie @ Confessions of a Plate Addict

6) Terrie @ Terrie's Lil" Piece of Serenity

7) BJ @ Sweet Nothings

8) Gloria @ Happy to Be

Woo hoo - it took me forever to find 8 of you who haven't already received this! Go forth & spread the love! Thanks Kathy and Kitty Scraps!

Congrates on the award!
I feel bad when I limit who I give an award to but figure it will make the rounds and everyone will get it eventually!
Have a good wet day and good luck with the haircut!

Hey - me and Kristen have "buttons" that you can "proudly" display on your sidebar if you want!! Come grab them - she even said she'd make you one - I won't let her charge you even though you are a "tardevil"!! (kidding) We are having a blast today making all kind of stuff!! OK - she's making stuff, I'm just watching! And, she did say she'd make you one, really. You don't have to put them on your blog, come and look though!!

I visited "Carolina Mama" and left her a comment - I didn't realize there were so many Carolina bloggers out there!! Grabbed her button too - we are all about the buttons lately!!
