Wonderful Awards From Friends....

I have expressed this many times -
but since beginning this blog -
I have met , and made so many wonderful
friends on here. Some who you connect with
straight away - others that develop over time ,
but you cherish and you are thankful in so
many ways that your paths have crossed .

And when you receive awards - you are
humbled even more so .


I have received 2 awards recently . The first one
She is the founder member of Etsy Cottage Style ning site ,
and we have become good friends during a
short space of time . So i was surprised that she
thought of me for this - but Thankyou so much Lynn !





from the daily visits that I dedicate to many blogs which
nourish me and enrich
me with creativity. In them I see dedication, creativity, care,
comradeship, but mainly, ART, much art.

The rules for receiving this award are:

2) Add a link to the person who awarded you.
3) Nominate at least 5 other blogs.
4) Add links to those blogs on yours.

The second is from Tiffani of Ric rac sally .
Again , a new friend i made on Etsy Cottage style,

These are my choices for both the above awards.
Whether you have them already or not .
It is always a tough decision to make - however
i have to choose - for their continual inspiration .

encouragement / hope would help them all during this
tough time .

Well deserved awards for you my friend!! ♥

And I thank you for your kind, thoughtful, heart felt words.

We go day by day with this disease and when we start going year by year with mammograms, we can start to breathe a little easier. I will never be "cured" (no one is ever cured of this disease), but when we are told there is no evidence it's a huge victory!!!!

Thank you so much, dear Carolyn. You are most deserving and I, too, am humbled that you would pass these on to me. What special friends we have made via our blogs. Life is good!

I thank you for the award, ever so much, and, most of all, for the good news about Sherry's test results. Am so happy that she can breathe easier.

Thanks again for your encouragement as I learn to draw. Coming from you, it's a real compliment.
