Delurking Day Update:
On January 14th it was Delurking day and I decided that I was going to stop using the google reader and actually come and see everyone that I follow. I put a BlogRoll on my side bar and I check it everyday.
Since January 14th, I have increased my followers from 3 to 23. That's 20 more people who think I am a cool read! YAY! Also the number of comments on my posts has increased. I LOVE comments! You guys are SO Supportive. HUGS all around!
Awards!
I have had the Privilege of receving not one but TWO awards this week! Corrie over at Just Because My Pickle Talks, Doesn't Make Me an Idiot gave me the Sunshine Award. She is So Sweet! And she also is raising an Aspergers Son. Thank you!
Also, Alice In Wonderland gave me the Kreative Blogger award this week! I love Alice's site because she always has something lovely posted there. Usually its a poem or a story she created herself. Right now she is teaching us about various myths and legends. Alice has a sister site called Alice Through the Lens where she is posting wonderful pictures each day. I LOVE the churches that she has posted. Thank you for the award!
With the awards come rules. First I am supposed to tell you seven things about myself and then I am to share the awards. Ok, here goes!
1. I am ready to put myself back out in the dating pool. Its' only taken me 3 years to heal.

There you have it. WOW, that was harder than I though it would be. You guys pick the award you want and display it proudly!
On to the Silly Stuff!
Oops! I saw this out my front window on Wednesday:
Yes, the Tug and Barge is STUCK on the mud flats.
The Tug came around the bend and didn't compensate quickly enough for the wind and it blew him aground. Oops! At least the tide had just turned so he didn't have to wait long to get enough water to sail away. When he was free, he steered WAY far AWAY from the shore. LOL
Kitters checking out the Tug's progress
Want to play a game of Wii, Mom?
Happy Weekend my friends!

ReplyDeleteI want to know how I didnt know about the recent flute playing. Seriously....do you hide it from me or what?!? LMAO
Nice to see you getting a bit of recognition! Thank you for not tagging me!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if I could pick the piano back up like you picked up the flute?? Of course, until I have one....I can't try!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your awards and thank you so much for mine!!! :)
Kudos on the well deserved awards, the sillies are SO silly funny, loved the things about you, and ... awww - tanks for tinking 'bout me!
ReplyDeleteOnly three years? It's been five for me. I tried to date every now and then but damn if the men out there aren't really clingy, and they have bad teeth.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the awards!
Wow! Thank You so much for the award! It was just what I needed to brighten up my day!
ReplyDeleteTo be totally honest, I was getting a bit down-hearted at all the work that I was putting into my blogs and seemed to be stuck in a rut....but Monday will be my 200th post! So, I'm looking forward to that!
Can I please have the orange flower?
I'll just pinch it anyway!
Big Hugs!
I am like your cat wanna play Wii? We played all morning because it was a cloudy rainy day this morning so all we did was laundry and play games like Snow Ball Fight, and Hoola Hoop, and about 10 other on that same screen. I did very good at some and horrible at others. But we had fun and laughed and even got one chore done besides the laundry. We hung up the big heavy courtain for the spare bedroom and we had to take turns doing that because it is so heavy and lifting your right arm up there for so long just takes a toll on your arm muscles. Plus it was after we played Wii. We didn't do Yoga this morning but we will do it after our nap today because today is the last day we can take a nap. We leave on March 20th and don't want to be in a habit of taking a nap so we will spend the nesxt month boxing what we will and won't take. Less is better so we are not taking very much. Talk to you soon.Sounds like you are doing ok and that is good. Love ya, Mom
