*applause* Let the ceremony begin.......

 
**Welcome to my Awards Ceremony**
I don't know if there are rules on what day and when you are supposed to DO this - but I guess frankly - I don't care ;-)
I've never been a rule follower anyway  =)
one of the luxuries of being the single mom in the house: I'M ALWAYS the boss.....I guess that carries over into every aspect of my life!  (ha ha)  kinda Kidding!
Anyway.......without further adieu...
*tears.......*
I have only been blogging since September - that's only really 2 full months of blogging - and let me just tell you how pleasantly surprised I have been by
#1 - how addicted I am to reading your blogs every day;
#2 how supportive and friendly and fun and sweet (really...I could go on forever here) all of you have been; and #3 how grateful I am to be able to share my life with you and thankful that you share yours with me!

So - over the past few weeks I have been given a few awards (tears again) that I would like to say THANK YOU again for and pass along to some of my favorite blogs too   =)

So.............let the fun part begin!

**First of all, from Holly I received the Over The Top award.  Thanks Holly!!!  bunches!  I love your blog at 504 Main and also Holly - don't think for one second that I'm not stalking your wedding blog too.  As a single (maybe forever?) girl - I love to look at the pictures and ideas and tips on your HipWeddings blog!!!  Thanks again!  mwahhh


I would like to pass this award on to:
I'm a recent follower and I love love love to read her posts!  Today's (Tuesday) is especially funny!!!  and REAL!  love it!
If you haven't stopped by or don't follow her already - go check it out!  =)
You ROCK Jenny Mac - YOU are Over the Top!!!!

**Next award is: 2009 Friendly Blogger Award
I received this one from Holly & ALSO from MJ  (MJ - I hope you are smiling today)
Thank you two so much for this award....


This one is especially special by virtue of name!  Thank you Holly & MJ.  I really feel I have gained some MUCH needed friendships via blogger and as I said before - I just never expected this much in return when I started blogging!
So I want to lovingly pass this award on to those women (and one man!) who have already touched me (noooooo, not like that!) in ways that they may never fully understand  =)

Scope @ Scope-Tech- one of my FEW male commenters (actually I'm not even sure he's a follower?  yeah - I called you out - hee hee)  Regardless, Scope - you made a comment on one of my blogs about lightening striking that made me smile!  Congrats on your recent engagement - and good luck to you and yours! 
Allyson @ Pink Flip Flops & Wine - WOW girl!  You are fabulous.... you and all your pink sweetness!  You are precious and all your comments and posts are filled with smiles  ;)   I love that!
Life Laugh Latte - you girls are FABULOUS!  Filled with joy and hope and love AND your funny on top of that!  LOVE your blog and your comments  :)
Lee @ HH&H - Girl - where do I even start with you!!!!!! Thanks for all the comments and just for your blog in general.... many days you put a smile on my face that wasn't there otherwise.   mwahhhhhhhh!
Leigh @ Leigh vs. Laundry - YOU my friend are precious!  I love your blog and all the real life YOU that you instill into it  :)   Thanks for making me feel normal - ha ha  ;-)

THANKS to all of you for being my little friendly bloggers!!  =)

**And for my last award... I received this one from Leigh.  I just raved about Leigh but I can't go on and on enough about how much I LOVE to read her!!  SHE is the epitome of "Honest Scrap"

I would like to pass this final award along to....
Candice @ Life According to Candice.
If you have not visited her blog - and you want to laugh your butt off about REAL LIFE - just stop by!  I love the topics (you really never KNOW what might be discussed there) and pictures and comments that happen over there.  Hilarious!!!!  And if you want blatant honesty - you will read it there!  ha ha

According to the rules (blah...rules...I'm playing along....), I should tell y'all 10 things about me.

1.)  I had very few "girl" friends growing up; ...always been a "guy's girl"... never got along with the girls!  Today I have very close girlfriends and I don't know what I would do without them!


2.) My mom and I did NOT get along when I was growing up.  Today - she is the first person I go to for advice!  She is the strongest person that I know..besides me!  ha   (Although I AM still a daddy's girl!!)


3.) My biggest fear is losing my boy... not physically, but more so his respect.  He is a great kid and I hope that never changes.


4.) I was REALLY mean to both my baby brothers growing up...I once put a booger on a banana and made my middle brother eat it - ouch!  I love them both so much and we are closer now than ever!  (my baby brother just got engaged!)  *proud big sister*
 

5.) I am probably the most loyal person you will ever meet...I always put others before myself, it's just who I am.  I get it from my mama!  Oh and I can't do ANYTHING half way; always above and beyond - ALSO thank my mama for that one!


6.) I am more bark than bite!!  People get the impression that I'm mean - but I am the MOST tenderhearted person ever!  (well - unless you betray me  ..snarl....)  Seriously...more bark!!



7.) I did graduate high school - but I did not walk the line.  Biggest regret...it broke my daddy's heart  :(   I did however walk the line at WKU last December.... my daddy's proudest day  ;)   Now if he could just find a good man to take care of me - HA HA!!!!!!!!!!


8.) I have a very hard time admitting that I'm wrong or saying I'm sorry.  Seriously... serious issues with both...


9.) I am very independent and can take care of myself; however I hope that I don't have to forever.  It's the simple things in a relationship that I most look forward to... my best friend and a partnership...someone to share a life with  =)


10.) I love music!!  It's so powerful and my favorite thing to do is drive around with the windows down listening to music!  It's what I do when I'm mad, or sad, or lonely, or happy, or just in the mood to sing!!!  :)

MAN - that was hard.
This award ceremony has worn me out!!!
Congrats to everyone and I hope you all have a Fabulous rest of the week!!!!!  (it's Wednesday - my favorite day!!!!)  YAY!

So anyway - getting back to this.........now that I have gotten through my HELLUVA weekend I'm passing on my "Best Blog Award" to these three ladies that I MUST read every day......sometimes for a laugh (most of the time actually - ha ha) but sometimes just as a reminder that my life really IS normal......ha ha
