Sometimes, you just get an award for your blog for no particular reason at all. I'm all about coming in first. My sisters will tell you that since I'm the oldest of the three children in our family, since I'm the first grandchild, since I'm just FIRST, period, I like to win and I always get A's and I always have to be first, thank you very much.
So, when the lovely Stephanie bestowed this blog award on my little blog, I wanted to be oh so gracious and say some kind words that would make even Audrey Hepburn blush, but of course life and travel and all that sex got in the way and here I am WEEKS later, frumpy and unkempt, not even dressed for the occasion and hoping that all of you will just know that I'm grateful, GRATEFUL, to have been acknowledged by such a lovely person. At all. The blog world is full of amazing and talented and truly expressive and fun writers. I'm just glad someone bothered to notice this one.
So this award came with RULES!?!? We all know I'm the girl that bristles at rules, likes to break the rules, hardly follows rules, would rather ignore the rules, but for Stephanie? I'll abide the rules.

I now have to gift this to 6 other bloggers. Only six. I could make a list five times as long.
GwendomamaAll of those blogs are blogs worth checking out if you have not checked them out already. I read them all for very different reasons, but I can also claim the writers of all those blogs as very dear friends. Which for me is something I hold dear and true. I'd give them all an award just for that. They come FIRST in my heart.
