Bloggy love

Jump to Comments

No photo hunt post today — the theme was “long” and I just couldn’t come up with anything — and have a really busy day ahead anyway.

So I thought this would be a good time to take care of some long over-due bloggy business.

My good blog friend Alice gave me the “You’re an Amazing Blogger” award weeks ago. No, Alice I didn’t forget — please forgive me for taking so long to respond! Thank you so much!

What usually holds me up in acknowledging these things is figuring out who to pass them on to. In some ways I could give them to everyone, but I don’t think that’s what’s intended. I don;t want to leave anyone out — I appreciate everyone who comes here. But to narrow it down a bit, some of the bloggers I consider amazing are:

Dawn at 4:53 am. A Christian crafty lady, she displays a sweet spirit and sense of awe and wonder at God’s creation. And I like her craft entries, too!

Melli at Insanity Prevails. She has a way of making everyday life always seem like such an adventure. I love her enthusiasm and cheerfulness. Even in hard times she traces God’s hand in it and relies on His strength.

Lizzie at A Dusty Frame. I admire her honesty and the evidence of grace and God’s strength as she deals with being a temporary single mom while her husband is incarcerated. The lessons of faith her family has been learning have been a joy to witness.

Karla at Karla’s Cottage. She’s one if my favorite crafty bloggers, and I’m so glad she shares what she’s working on. I am amazed at how much she can get done in a short time!

Then, more recently my good blog buddy Jen gave me a couple more awards. Thanks so much!

One was the Blog Buddies award. There is a sense in which everyone who comes here is a blog buddy. But I’d like to pass this on to few whom I feel I know a little better:

Alice at Hello, My Name is Alice.
Diane at A Watered Garden.
Susan at By Grace.
Bet at Dappled Things.
Ann at From Sinking Sand.
Jen at Joyful Notes.
Rita at The Jungle Hut.
Laurel at Laurel Wreath Reflections.
Susanne at Living to Tell the Story.
Cindy at Notes in the Key of Life.
Janeen at Our Story.
Jewel at Down In My Little Valley.
Kim at Life in the 10/40 Window.

Jen also passed on the me the Tough Blogger award for being “a tough blogger who is true to yourself.” Thanks, Jen!

This is kind of a hard one to pass on as my brain is scrambled right now and I can’t think of any blogger I know who isn’t true to themselves.

And jen also gave me the “Nice Matters” award (thank you!). I passed that on to several folks a while back.

In other bloggy news — at some point in the near future I think I am going to move my awards and links and maybe my blogroll up into the “About Me” section at the top right. I think it would make my sidebar look neater. And, though I love the awards, I fell a little funny about displaying them all there — don’t want to seem like I am bragging on myself. So if you have blessed me with an award and don’t see it on the side, either I am busy with Christmas stuff and don’t have it up yet or I will have moved it. It may be after Christmas before I get to that, though.

Thanks, dear blog friends!
