Welcome!

I'm often amazed and confused by the bizarre happenings behind the closed and competitive doors of the typical suburban home. The following is a place to share my thoughts and reflections on daily life as I try to navigate this crazy and wonderful world.

Time to pass it on!

I am overdue! I have been blessed with a variety of awards and it really is time that I pass on the love.

JenJen at GottaLoveMom
Awarded me the Lovely Blog Award and The Kreative Blogger Award




My second award comes from the ever funny Karie over at One Fish, Two Fish, Three, Four,Five
This award is bestowed on to blogs that are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award.


Last but not least a Double Award from one of my newest reads Buckeroomama over at Mamahood, Among Other Things...



The rules from this double duty award are:

1. Friends Award
This award is bestowed on to blogs that are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award.

2. One Lovely Blog Award
Rules: 1. Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award and his or her blog link. 2. Pass the award to 15 other blogs that you have newly discovered. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.


I think the essence of all of these awards it that you are acknowledging some great bloggers and hopefully introducing some of your new blog friends to a wider audience.
I will admit I have confused myself trying to figure out who has already received these awards, so I'm not going to worry about that any more! I'm going to pass on this group of awards to 11 wonderful people. Why 11, I'm random like that!
If you are not on this list...know I love you too!
So my beautiful bloggy friends, pick the award you like the best, or the one you don't yet have and pass it along.
I hope everyone can go and take a look at all of these blogs, maybe even make their day by becoming their newest follower! Who doesn't love a new follower?
Tell them I say Hi!


The eleven blogs that I have chosen to pass along this lovely award to are:

Caroline over at Whimsical Whispers

Sara at Domestically Challenged

Hit 40 at Sane without drugs

SC From the Desk of Sara

The cute Design It Chic

Lizzie at Infectious Chatter

Cynthia at Crumbs in the Minivan

Danielle at Stiletto Chicken

Tami at Diary of a Mad Woman

ME at An Eagles View

And last but not least, The Perfectly Happy Mum

Hi MM!
Phew! Managed to reach yr page at long last! Must be a glitch so better be quick (usually get repeated "operation aborted" messages!)

Congrats on all yr well-deserved awards! Yes, I share your love of them too! Got to confess I've still to pass on yr lovely award. Partly 'cos of work & brief hiatus but also 'cos of the dilemma you mentioned here: uncertainty about who's already got it! Anyway, I'll follow yr wise lead & pass it on regardless! Now, where's that useless PA of mine when I need her...!

Have a great Sunday!

xLOL LOLA:)
