A Major Award, A Major Award!*

I am so excited. The past week, I have received not one but two blogging awards from two of the nicest folks.

A big thank you to Mother Kitty who awarded me the "You Make Me Smile" award. How sweet is that? A smile is so important!



And to Tammy who sent me the "Spirit of Christmas" award. How good it is to receive an award in October for being generous and giving? Pretty darn good.

You both are just too sweet to think of me. Really. I'm honored to feel that I make people smile and spread good cheer. Is there nothing more basic in our lives than these simple feelings and actions?

Again, thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

Lastly, but not least, a big Happy Birthday to dear Pea who is celebrating her 50th birthday today. Woooot! Have a very happy birthday my friend.
