Or so says Kathryn from Life in Italy. She gave me my first blogging award and I am speechless. Which is a problem because I need words to say thank you and to tell her I am so happy she likes my blog. Okay. take. a. big. breath. and settle down. There that is better. Go see Kathryn. She is a Brit married to a Canadian living in Italy raising 2 boys and writes an incredible blog about her life there.
Now I am suppose to pass it on to 5 bloody brilliant worthy bloggers. This has been a struggle because I think your all brilliant . I know you have all recieved many other awards and are probably sick of them by now but too bad. I have decided on Faemom because she always cracks me up. CK who writes a good story and has often made me shed a tear. To Jane because even when I go out on a limb (zombie humor) she gets it. To The Kitchen Witch who not only shares her stories but gives you a darn good recipe to go with it plus she knows where the grenades are hidden and I might need one. Finally to ymk because we polite girls need to stick together and teach each other to be rude to obnoxious people. These are the blogs that make me laugh and cry and still I come back for more. Well there it is, now go read these ladies blogs because they are all bloody brilliant. It was truly hard to pick only five.

Congrats!
Awww thanks!! *Hug* yeah again. I’m big on hugs. But I really appreciate this. Now we should go smack Freckles and her creepy brother with this award.
Congrats! And you’ve listed some of my most favorite bloggers :) You have wonderful taste, my friend!
Thank you, sweetie! Congrats on your award and thanks for passing it on. I’m smiling from ear to ear.
Oh my goodness! I’m reading your post today and I get to the name “Jane” and I think, “Ooooo, another Jane.” And I click on it and my blog pops up! I’m stunned. Excited. Thrilled. Honored. And so very, very touched. Thank you. A million thank yous.
Congradulations! You deserve it! And Thank you. Sorry about being so late to the party. This tadpole better be worth it.
You deserve it too! Don’t worry abut being late, the important thing is your here.
Woo hoo! Thank you so much, Robin. This totally made my day.
(And I’m always looking for an excuse to add “Bloody” into my every day vocabulary. Of course, then it prompts me to try speaking in a British accent, which always winds up sounding kinda Jersey/Australian…)
