Paying It Forward
I'm very humbled when my craptacular little blog gets some blog bling.
I AM a really great procrastinator. I apologize for taking so long to pay it forward to all of you who are much more deserving.
Hootin Anni (the coolest G-ma), Lori (the coolest single Mom) and Trinity (the coolest photog) gave me treats to hand out to new blog visitors. Sincere Thanks!

I'm forwarding the treat to Motherscribe, Andrea, Crinkled, Rhonda, Karla, Sarcastic Mom, Carrie and Bren.
The talented Trinity gave me a generous friend award. Thanks Trinity. I'm forwarding this award to:

Rachel- A daily read of thoughtfulness & laughter.
SAHMmy- Responsible for my limited productivity.
Ana- I love all her Mamma drama & talented posts.
Jenny- A thrifty chic with excellent ideas.
Gina- Brilliant photographer and kindness to match.
Patois gave me a Community Blogger Award. Patois is comical, sincere and fun (BRUUUUCCE). I appreciate her thoughtfulness and am forwarding to:

This was started at the Sultana blog, who said, "I wanted the award to say - this is a person who reaches out and makes my blogger community a better one." At Cellobella’s request, I’ll email her (cellobella at gmail dot com) to add my nominees to her blogroll.
Slouching Mom- A professional; the Meryl Streep of blogging.
RimaRama- Hilarious & dramatic pretty much sums it up.
Painted Maypole- Honest, sincere and talented.
Zamejias gave me another Nice Award. She is a generous, kind blogger. I appreciate it sincerely Zamejias. I'm forwarding it to (grab whichever nice graphic you want):

Amy- Always fun to read with photographs to match.
Mango Marie- Her comments and posts are always fun.
Ames- A fellow geek who I read & live vicariously thru.
Kellan- Always positive & looking on the upside.
Dawn gave me a Nice Award. She is funny and always interesting. Thanks Dawn! I'm forwarding it to (grab whichever nice graphic you want):

Tommie- I enjoy every. single. post (and email).
Head Gaggler- A great daily read & even better friend.
Neptune Baby- A new friend; my lost twin (but smarter).
FoOtBaLl FaNaTiC - Better than June Cleaver!
Tommie gave me a coveted Blogger Reflection Award. She is a daily read that I thoroughly enjoy. Her blog started as a way to communicate with her husband in the Army in Iraq (whom is hopefully coming home soon). She has heartfelt tales and fantastic photographs.

According to the rules, the award should make you reflect on 5 bloggers who have been an encouragement, a source of love, impacted you in some way.
I'm grateful for the following 5 bloggers who encourage & inspire me:
MetaMommy- My 1st blog friend; sincere, smart & funny.
Teryn- Honest, brave, talented. Simply amazing.
Janet- A professional. Brilliant, bigger than life blogger.
Patois- The real deal. A favorite (especially on Tuesday).
Barbara- A generous blogger and genius photographer.
All caught up. Take that procrastinating-self.
