Now that things have calmed down, I can show my gratitude to some great bloggers who recently bestowed me with award love.
Tiana Smith gave me the Beautiful Blogger award.
Laura Pauling gave me the You Are My Sunshine Supportive Comment Award.
Just Jemi gave me the Versatile Blogger Award.
Thanks so much ya’ll!
Okay, so I’m going to sort of “cheat” a little with the award rules and use these guidelines for all three:
- Thank the folks and link them.
- Share 7 interesting things about yourself.
- Pass award along to other bloggers.
- Comment on their blogs to tell them of the award.
Hmm…okay 7 “interesting” things about me:
- The only furniture in my house at the moment is my bed and an office chair (this will be fixed on August 1st when I’m finished with remodeling).
- At my software geek job, one of our major clients is the FBI (don’t make me run a background check on you).
- I have a turf war going on with the rabbits in my backyard. However, I just won a battle by picking all of the blackberries this past weekend. (Take that, rabbits).
- At a previous stint at CNN, I loved to sneak down and watch Headline News especially when they had celebrities interviews (I didn’t get any autographs though).
- Even though I work in technology, my computer is 12 years old (I’m keeping it until it dies a natural death).
- My parents owned a nightclub called The Connection in Athens. I remember as a kid watching “old people” dance in the DJ booth (I thought it was hilarious).
- When I go to work, I take off my heels and put on my flip flops (sorry, this was all I had left, LOL).
I want to pass on the award love to the the following (bloggers, feel free to pick your choice of the three awards and share how you like):

You should definitely check out these blogs if you haven’t already.
Everyone have a GREAT 4th of July! I’m going to the lake and hopefully someone will let me ride on a jet ski. Ha.
Be safe everyone and also try to get some writing done during the long holiday weekend.
What a great list of blogs! Thanks!
12 year old computer? And you can actually use it?? :)
Great choices to pass along the awards to. (I often cheat on the rules as well!)
Congratulations on all your very well earned awards and thank you so much for passing one along to me! How sweet of you!
Jemi: Ha, yes I still use it! I actually just put XP on it because it was running Windows 98 — so sad. But I think the computer’s days are numbered.
Laura: You probably already know a lot of these blogs but they are good ones!
Heather: You are SO welcome!
That’s so cool! Thanks Karen! I’ll choose the Sunshine award (I haven’t been passed that one yet). :D
BTW, the bunnies won the war on my backyard. My lawn is practically destroyed and one even came to my screen door to taunt me. Sigh.
Congratulations on your awards! And thanks for sharing by passing one along to me. It’s very sweet of you! I’m impressed that your 12-year-old computer is functioning too -mine is even that old, but it’s so slow it drives me crazy!
Karen,
Thanks so much :-) I love your answers. LOL…turf war with rabbits!!
Congratulations on your awards, and thank you for passing it along to me!
And a 12-year-old computer? I really wish I could keep mine that long!
You must be a computer genius if you can keep a 12-year-old computer running.
I love bunnies, so I”d probably let them win the turf war.
So many awards, so much love…well deserved! Thanks for the blog links, all new to me. Listen geekie girl, I need some help (showing her ignorance!) Would you email me and explain how to *capture* awards and then 1) post them on my blog so I can 2) sending them to someone else??? Guess everyone now knows how geekie I am not:-) Thank you so much!!!!
