Awards Day!

I am a whole lotta days late and a many dollars short on getting this post together and expressing my gratitude. I really appreciate all the love and comments and followers.

And I must apologize for my semi-sort-of-absence and lack of thoughtful commentary lately. I am working on getting it back together, but just bear with me....I have a book coming out in December and I must do some work for it, which unfortunately cuts into blogging time.

I love my time in blogland and truly apprciate everyone who stops in, comments, and follows!

So with no further adieu (presented in the order in which they were received)....

Tattoos and Teethiing Rings gave me this Over the Top Award.
She has posted some really great tidbits on Real Moms and Mom Wars (among others) over there and a super sweet love story today. Go check her out now, you wont be sorry.

Can I pass this one to everyone? If I read you and I comment, I must think you are "Over the Top," (that sounds familiar, I must have stole that from someone) but since I don't think that is part of the rules, here goes...

I know she has this one (she must!) but Lee at Hormones, Headaches and Hot Flashes created "Over the Top!" Check her out (as if you have not already)

Daffy at Batcrap Crazy. I am sure she has this too..she must! But I don't care

Tami at Every Day in Gray...her blog is honest and she just tells it like it is. I especially loved her rant about "Stupid, Stupid Boys"

Lynn at Midday Escapades. Lynn has great reviews and giveaways and you should go over and see what it is all about.

Kys at Stir Fry Awesomeness gave me the My Friends Award. Her blog rocks. She is hilarious too and has some very creative posts.
MJ at Dirty Little Confessions also bestowed this award on me. You need to go pay her a visit. Her honesty is refreshing and on Friday you can confess all.

I pass this on to:
Lisaloo at One Step at a Time, she is a new friend!
Giving back the love to Tattoos and Teething Rings
Holly and Charisse at Life, Laugh, Latte because they are great and they wore costumes today!

Steph in the City gave me this Heartfelt Award. I love this blog. She always has an interesting story to tell or gives me something to think about.

Kimberley at TerraDelSole. She is one of my new friends. She is genuine and I enjoy her posts.
Polly at The 5th Sister. She was one of my first followers and always gives thoughtful comments.
This Stop Willoughby she has a great blog and is a super hostess!

Lynn at Midday Escapades also presented me with the Friendly Blogger award. Lynn has great reviews and giveaways and you should go over and see what it is all about.
