Maybe I should tape that title to my mirror and repeat each morning?
I’m so lousy at blog housekeeping (just like real life housekeeping!) that I forgot to mention that I’ve been given some awards and nominations!
First, Karen decided to announce to the world that I’m sassy:
Geez, Karen, it was a big secret. Now everyone knows I’m sassy! Next thing you know, people will expect me to be witty, too.
As is the custom, I must pass the award on to other deserving bloggers. I’d like to give this one to Lotus, Dana, and Motherbumper. Thank you, Karen!
And then, Mayberry Mom confessed that Jennifer and I make her smile for hosting Haiku Friday:
Awww…you make me smile, too. And keep those haiku coming! Besides Mayberry, there are lots of folks who make me smile, but today I’m going to honor some of the local ladies: Julie, Laura, and Kristi.
I chose Laura and Kristi because whenever we go out for our once-a-month Ladies Night get together, I always leave happy and refreshed and wishing I could spend more time with them (and everyone else – I’m not forgetting you, Chris and Emily!). And I picked Julie because her son is so adorable I want to eat him up, and her crafts are stunningly beautiful. Go see the apron she made recently and marvel at the bazillion french knots.
Thanks, Mayberry – I’m glad you like this little haiku day Jennifer and I came up with.
Speaking of Jennifer, this crazy woman nominated me for two Blogger’s Choice Awards categories awhile back:
I know I don’t stand a chance next to the other fabulous (and hot) mommybloggers out there, but if you’d care to vote for me so I’m not sitting at 0 votes, I certainly wouldn’t object. And be sure to go vote for Jennifer, too. (Thanks, Jennifer!)
Finally, sometime around 6:45pm Eastern time, focus all of your calming energy my direction, would you? Tonight is my performance exam for one of my nursing classes, and I’m already starting to shake from nerves. This is one of those “perform the skill perfectly or you automatically fail out of the program” kind of things, so you can understand why I might be a little jittery.
Edited to add: I passed! Thanks for your well wishes!
I’m crossing everything for you!
good luck! You have been rocking this nursing thing so far — I know you can do it!
I’ll even cross my clavicles for you. Quick! What’s a clavicle! 😀
(I was in nursing school once upon a time, and that’s all I remember! ROFL!)
Congrats on the awards which totally deserve because you ARE sassy and hot, and make people smile!
I feel the same after our monthly gatherings. It is so refreshing to share good conversation with you and the other gals.
good luck with the veins! I know you will nail’em on your first try. Let us know how you do!
Loved sharing the choco cake with you!!
Sometimes I actually want to eat Evan myself, I SWEAR!!!
(And oh yeah, THANKS!!!!!!!)
congratulations on all of the awards!
Thanks a ton for the award! I’ve been feelin’ rather sassy lately. Dawson is rubbing off on me. 🙂
And good luck with the exam! I know you will do well.
Congrats on your awards, too. 🙂
Okay, you’re probably taking your exam right now and I’m sending you the strongest success vibes I can muster.
Can’t wait to hear how it went. I’m sure you rocked it.
Well I’m late, but I hope your exam went well!
Congrats on the awards!
Hot damn! bling for my blog – huge thank you. And I hope your exam when well (I know you’ll kick butt).
Congrats on your awards and I hope your exam went well!
Got here too late to wish you well, but I’m glad you did well without me! 😉
Thanks for the Sassy Award! *snaps fingers and rolls neck*
Hey… is it saying something bad about ME or YOU that your google ads are showing me discounts on adult diapers?
You are the winningest!
Hope last night added more wins to the day.
Yeah! Congrats on the awards, and passing.
