... You won't believe this!

Oh . My . Gosh .

In the 8 months I have been blogging and following other blogs I have seen a number of Awards posted on various sites. As a newbie blogger and a type A personality, I decided I was going to get me one! You know, go to the Awards web site and just pluck one off the shelf. And then I made a dismaying discovery that you can't just "get one", you have to be given one by someone else.

Despair!!

What were the chances of that happening?

Who could I bribe, who could bully?

Despair, despair.

And then out of nowhere, Deirdra Eden Coppel, sent me an email, and said I was ... "gulp" ... inspiring!! I am sure glad she didn't know to what lengths I was will to go to get one of these!!!

But seriously, Deirdra, thank you. I really do appreciate it and I will post it proudly!!

Deirdra's blog can be found at: http://astorybookworld.blogspot.com/ . Be sure to check it out. Talk about Inspiring! A work of art really.

PS:

And just for the record:

I did not pay or bully her into giving this to me. Scout's Honor. Hand on the Bible! Cross my heart. If I am caught in a lie, I will give you my first born ! Oh, wait ... he is past the cute stage at 37 so maybe that isn't such a big deal - but he is potty trained !

PPS:

Deirdra, you made my day! Thank You.
