I’ve been awarded with the Life Is Grand Award

life_is_grand_award.jpgThanks for Roz of Life in Australia for awarding me with the Life is Grand Award.  Does she feel bad because I lost my credit cards in Australia?  Think of all the shopping I missed.

I am supposed to list five reasons why I think life is grand:

  1. Life is grand because I have a loving family and many friends.
  2. Life is grand because I blog with people who aren’t trying to cut me off at the knees and therefore be the best in the competition.  The people I blog with are interesting, supportive, genuinely nice people.  Life is grand because we know each other.
  3. Life is grand because the sun is shining and the weeds are growing so fast the bunnies can’t keep up with them.  (Our wild bunnies just love the broad bladed weeds.)
  4. Life is grand because my computer takes me out into the world every day and I love it.
  5. Life is grand because I love my readers, and apparently they like what I write enough to stop by often.

Now I need to award the Life is Grand symbol to the following people.  I’m going to list some blogs you might not know because I think you might like them.

  1. The Skiff Song Web site because Annie has such a great story to tell and you’d like to hear it.
  2. The Mysterious Galaxy online because independent book stores cater to your tastes and this book store caters to mine.  This award is for all the independent book stores out there.
  3. Yahoo News for their article “Can Web site offer homeless man hope?” for great reporting on a problem none of us understand.  Look at the videos to get the full effect.
  4. To Animation vs Animator for a fine sense of fun that he shares with us all.
  5. To Peace Love and Happiness who just puts out a good blog.

I hope you enjoy visiting these blogs and web sites.  I know it’s unusual to include web sites, but it’s what I wanted to do today.

    Thanks for passing on the award - I’ll check out the blogs/websites - they all look interesting.

    If you are anything like me, it’s probably a good thing that you lost your credit cards and didn’t spend too much money!!
