And The Most Long Over Due Award Ceremony.
I am sofa king behind in tags, awards, and memes that I am going make up for as much as I can right here and now. Thus, the LONGEST award list to ever take place in the history of blogging. [*sorry*]
And, if by some chance, I have accidentally left someone out, or forgot to add you, please feel free to remind me via email or comment.
One more thing, I truly appreciate each and every one of these awards, and each and every one of your blogs, and more importantly, the people behind the blogs. I am very blessed to have the best blog FAMILY.
On with the ceremony.
I have been given this award known as ‘The Helping Hand Emblem’ from Shae @ the blog Hey Shae
[Receiving the Emblem in recognition for your mentoring, support, and encouragement to a fellow blogger is no small fete! It is evidence that you have gone well beyond the call of duty by your continued efforts to “leave the pile higher than you found it”! It is further evidence that your blog(s)has been identified as the epitome of excellence and is certainly admired. Receiving the Emblem from a seasoned blogger is a testimony to your that you’re on the right track! That your voice is being heard. And there are those out here in the blogosphere that recognize your potential even if you don’t. Keep up the good work.]
*Awesome*
I was also given this award known as ‘I Love Your Blog’ by Rolando @ the blog My Hush Space
[Receiving the ‘I Love Your Blog’ from someone who loves to read my blog makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. And just when I thought I was going to scare people away.]
*Sweet*
I have also been given this award known as ‘The Million Dollar Friend‘ by Lee @ the blog TarHeel Ramblings and by Good Ole Speedy @ 0007 Undercover and by Dawn @ Twisted Sister
[To be considered a million dollar friend by anyone is a great honor, and the feeling is 100% mutual.]
*Excellent*
And, it seems as if I’ve won this award ‘A Perfect Blend Of Friendship’ from Roshan @ Awake & Dreaming
[Thank you. You know just how much I love my coffee and my fellow bloggers!!]
*Rocks*
I have received this award known as Brillante Weblog 2008 from Terri Terri @ Terri Terri Quite Contrary
*Wheee*
I have received this award titled Arte-Y-Pico from Drowsey Monkey @ Drowsey Monkey Awards and by CMK @ Out Of My Mind and by Urban @ Urban Observations
*Yay*
Finally I also received The Lemonade Award from Awake In Rochester (also known as AIR in the comments) and this award was also given to me by the craziest cat I know Speedy.
“Lemonade” Is Awarded to “Living With A Chronic Illness” . This award is given to blogs demonstrating a great attitude of gratitude.
Why thank you…although I haven’t been very grateful lately. Maybe I will start now.
In closing,
I would like to pass EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE AWARDS, to EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE BLOGS. These are the blogs I enjoy reading every day. This list, is made up the people that have been by my side, supporting me, cheering for me, encouraging me, and have kept reading this blog through the good times and bad. *I have even included my favorite ‘new comers’.*
So have at it people.
Feel free to choose which award you like the most, or take all of them! Then proudly post them on your blogs!

Awwwww, thanks for listing me…Your an awesome chick who deserves all those awards. Wow, girl people really do love ya, me included. You rock.
Good lord, girl! I had forgotten I even passed on that award! I’m impressed that you acknowleged all these in spite of how much time has passed. LOL. You crack me up!
Congratulations on all your well deserved awards!
Thank you for your thoughtful awards!
I hope Speedy Chickencat has some free time to build me a extra blogging award shelf 😉
The Girl I Will Bring Home To My Mom:
You rock too.
xxoo
🙂
Terri:
Ha ha ha…I was finally cleaning out my INBOX and I saw there were all these awards I never recognized…so I figured better late than never…right?
You crack me up!
xxoo
Miss Money Penny:
You know Speedy will build you a page or a whole new blog to store all of your awards~
xxxxxoooo
PS: I am so glad you are BACK to BLOGGING.
WOW… You’ve been hit off something kind of nice. You deserve all of the above.
This post reminds me… I have to do an award show of my own. I’ve neglected to acknowledge the awards I’ve received this year. I have to get up on that might quick. The year is almost out. Would you believe Thanksgiving is in a couple of weeks?
What a great post :-D. I think WE are the lucky ones.
Urban:
I cant even BELIEVE Thanksgiving is soo close!
Giddy-Up on your awards!
Kristy – WMDA:
Aw. Shucks. Thank you.
Congrats on all those lovely awards and thank you for including me in that very long list 🙂
I also read a lot of blogs but just don’t have the time to ever get round them all..
I’d like to tell you that you deserve all of your awards and I’d like to thank you for giving me one too and that I will endeavor to find an excuse to claim my own lemonade stand, but all that I can think of is…
Panic Panic — TWITTER IS DOWN! — what are we going to do?
LOL!
congrats and thanks.
you got some blog roll there sister.
funny how no matter how many comments you get on your blog, you know the newcomers from the regulars and those that stop in once in a while. i have most of my regulars blog address in my head.
anywho, enjoy!
Lady Banana:
Of course you are included.
I really DO read ALL OF THOSE BLOGS (including yours)
EVERYDAY.
However…I have not made my usual rounds since I am dealing with a whole nw set of health issues over the last few days.
As soon as I figure out a game plan, or find hope once again…
I will be back in full force.
* I hope ya’ll understand and have patience with me over the next few days?*
DCR:
Thank You
&
Your Welcome
What? Twitter is DOWN?
Oh No…. Where’s the party tonight?
Who’s blog are we going to ‘talk on’ until Twitter is restored?
BTW: I hope AIR was not offended by my statement in this blog post…I thought it was funny?
Valerie:
I know EVERYONE that comes here. I make it my mission to pay them a visit and a comment if applicable. I do know most of my long time ‘readers’ NOW deemed friends blog addresses by heart too!
And YOURS in ONE OF THEM.
xxoo
(yeah, that list is long…but those are the people I ‘talk to’ every day…)
Hello Ms. Popular!
Or should I call you MP? lol
Well, Congratulations! You hit the jackpot of awards. Thanks for passing them along, but where am I going to put them all? Guess I’ll have to clear off that shelf in the guest room.
That’s your everyday reading? :oO Wow! That’s as big as my entire list! Of course with a slow computer it sometimes takes 10 minutes to load one post. Then it’s always extra fun when I get in the door, & the computer freezes. But she’s my “old lady”, about 102 in human terms, god bless her little circuits. She keeps on keeping on for me.
Well, Twitters down, or at least acting up in a major way. I wasn’t going to comment on it, but I did a bit. You know, when somethings hard to get some times you want it more. Anyways, there should be an uptick in blogging by the twitter heads. Be prepared! Well, I’m just a yapping my head off here today! And lookie you have 486 more blogs to respond to. Well, guess I’ll get going, and clear that shelf off.
Now you come out, and play with us Twitter heads soon! We’re always looking for you! Of course with dcr, he’s looking at so may Twitts that you have to shout in the mans ear to get his attention sometimes. But once in awhile he’ll call out your name. When he does, I look around the room, don’t see you, and wonder if the mans been hitting the bottle, or something.
Hey, does that Olga ever drop her bra? I mean is she ever really her? I’d really like to see her drop her bra. I really would! Got a feeling that there’s one hell of a special person their, but she makes it hard to see. @@
Well, if this is to personal, or to nutty, or something just delete it. I seem to have diarrhea of the mouth today. I need some Imodium AD, or something. I sound a bit like a hillbilly too. Don’t know what that’s about, for land sakes!
Thanks, my friend! And congrats on all the blog love you get. It’s well deserved.
Awww, you are too kind Meleah! Thank you!! And…does blogging seem like it takes over your life sometimes?? That’s a loooonnng list…
(and, you are deserving of all these and more!! — you ARE loved!)
Hot diggety damn, but I am just honored to think you would even mention me as one of your favorites! You, my dear, are sweet.
AIR:
Ha ha ha ha ha ha
“I seem to have diarrhea of the mouth today”
Never feel like you cant talk over here!
If I ever win the lottery I am buying YOU an Apple and HIGH SPEED CABLE INTERNET CONNECTION.
Yes. That REALLY is the number of blogs and the ACTUAL blogs I read and comment on EVERY DAY.
Olga is AWESOME. But, yes, she is private. You will get to know the person behind the bra when she is comfortable with you.
I can attest to her awesomness because she helped me SOOOOOOO much with an advertising project I had to do for my boss back when I was working. Olga was & IS AMAZING. And I took Real Pride in having her in my home.
I know you have a slow connection, but if you ever have time, check out these photos. Under each photo is a link to a blog post. While Twitter is down…it might be fun for you to read and give you a better insight to her?
Anyway….
XXXXXXXXXXXOOOOOOOOOO
Ingrid:
Woman… I love you.
We have been reading each others blogs for a long time now, and privately emailing…I have to tell you that YOU are one of the people that has helped me get through some of the most difficult times Ive had to endure over a 2 year span.
Thank you for your friendship, support & never ending encouragement.
xxxxxooooo
🙂
Lance:
You are one of my ‘new inspirations.’
CMK:
Honey… C’mon now.
You HAVE TO KNOW you are one of my favorites.
Hello!
You HAVE TO know that YOUR friendship is one that I truly VALUE.
Um…all those emails mean The World To Me.
**You have talked me off many a ledge and out of many a pity parties.**
I can only thank DAZD for “introducing” us.
My life is better because YOU are in it.
xxoo
Congrats on all the awards. You truly deserve them all. And thank you for including me in the list of honorees. I appreciate the recognition, but my award is knowing you. :0) That’s pretty special in itself.
Nice! You rock girl. I love this post. 🙂
She helped you with an advertising project? Did you meet the person?
Thanks for the tip. I’ll take a l@@k at those photos & links.
Hey, I’ll hold you to that computer promise! Keep on playing! ;o)
