Gifting

It's not too late to give gifts, is it? I didn't think so. My friend Angela just gave me something pretty and new and much appreciated:




Isn't it fun?! And, in the spirit of the season, I'm passing it on: to Victoria and Jess and Chichi and Jen M. and Suzanne and Kellan and Neno and Rima. Enjoy, sassies!

And is it legal to pass on an award I didn't receive? After a "Sassy" award, I'm feeling inclined to do it, regardless. Another Original Angela creation, a "Warming up the Web, One Post at a Time" award:



goes to jen for her inspirational work and her incredible insights; to Rebecca and Jenn and Sarah and Dana and Aliki for writing so beautifully; to Stephanie and Kristy and Painted Maypole and L.C. and JenPonderosa and Kathleen for making me think (dangerous!); to Dawn and HB and Sin for their beautiful photographs (inspirational!); to Mrs. Chicken for her honesty; and to Bad and Beck and Liesl and Steph and Heidi and Christine and Jessie and Mary and Gretchen and Huddtoo and Dragonfly and Robin for sharing themselves and for always having a kind word for others: you all make the world seem a bit smaller and more cozy.

Feel free to pay it forward, in any manner you like. Or not. No rules to this one. If there were rules, I'd encourage you to break them, anyway: it's good for the soul.

Wow, Jen! Thank you for your kind gift. What a nice surprise. I do think your photos are the best out there, but that makes the compliment from you mean all that much more. : )

Wow! I've never gotten an award before -

I'd like to thank my kids for letting me ignore them while I blog, my husband for waiting up for me in bed while I blog, for my loyal readers, the academy....
