Blog Awards

Carol Kilgore over at Under the Tiki Hut has bestowed the "Life with The Cherry on Top" Award upon me. In order to accept this great honor, I must journey into the far reaches of my mind and seek ye the answer of one question (too dramatic?):

The question:

If I had the chance to go back and change one thing in my life, would I, and what would it be?

My answer:

No, I don't think I'd change anything. There were plenty of mistakes I made, things I wish I would've done better, chances I let pass, and so on. But all those highs and lows of my life brought me to where I am today. I love my family. And my life ain't perfect by any means, but I know it's more than I deserve. And I can't help but worry if I changed something earlier, it would keep me from having all that I have now. So, nope, wouldn't change.

Thanks for this award, Carol. You're too sweet.

Now I hereby grant the honor of the "Life with The Cherry on Top" Award to:

1. Diane Estrella at DIANE ESTRELLA

2. Jennifer Shirk at ME, MY MUSE, AND I

3. Katie Holderread at KATIE'S RANT

4. Kenzie Michaels at KENZIE MICHAEL'S BLOG

Meat and Potatoes Award

The lovely novelist, Nancy J. Parra, awarded me the Meat & Potatoes award (though, seriously, I don't think I deserve it).

According to the quote on her blog, the award goes to a blog whose "content is more than fluff but offers some solid information." I'm honored and grateful for such recognition (though, still...don't deserve it).

And I'd like to pass it on to FIVE other Bloggers out there who have offered me some wonderful writing information when I've visited their blogs. So:

1. Jody Hedlund
2. Elena Johnson
3. Sherrinda K.
4. Jessica Nelson &
5. Cindy Wilson

Thank you, guys, for your great Meat & Potato Blogs.
